Conservative pundit Megyn Kelly knocked President Trump for dismissing a question about Jefferey Epstein during a Cabinet meeting on Tuesday.
“Good grief! That was no bueno, guys! That was no bueno, OK? President Trump had the same problem there that Karoline Leavitt had yesterday. The dodge should not be obvious. It should be subtle. It should be deftly worked into a more substantive answer,” Kelly said during an episode of her popular podcast and YouTube show.
Trump interjected on Tuesday when Attorney General Pam Bondi was asked about a Department of Justice memo revealing Epstein kept no “client list,” and did not seek to blackmail powerful people with whom the convicted sex offender was associated with.
“Are you still talking about Jeffrey Epstein?” Trump told the reporter who asked about the DOJ memo. “This guys been talked about for years … do you want to waste the time?”
The existence of Epstein’s so-called “client list” had fueled a wave of conspiracy theories, particularly on the right among Trump’s supporters.
Kelly earlier this week said the Trump administration “humiliated” many right-wing internet influencers who she said “had been very good to [President] Trump.”
