Internet shreds Megyn Kelly as she slams 'power-hungry' Jill Biden for running 'shadow presidency'
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: During an appearance on 'Piers Morgan Uncensored' on the night of July 3, Megyn Kelly criticized First Lady Jill Biden, labeling her as a "power-hungry aspirant" who is allegedly leveraging her husband President Joe Biden's perceived frailty to run a "shadow presidency."
In a conversation with Piers Morgan, Kelly condemned Jill Biden for her appearance on the cover of Vogue, suggesting that the First Lady is fixated on gaining "the affirmation of strangers" and uses her PhD to garner "honorarium."

Megyn Kelly responded with a scathing critique, portraying Jill Biden as a self-serving individual who exploits her husband's position for her own "political power."
She accused the First Lady of being a manipulative figure, prioritizing self-promotion over supporting her husband's presidency.
"I think she’s been exposed as a power-hungry aspirant herself to political power. She is on the cover of Vogue magazine right now. Why? Because she wants to promote herself. She tweeted out a photo of herself sitting in the president’s chair not long ago when he was preparing for the G7 meeting… hanging over the back of his chair," Kelly said.
Kelly further added, "She’s not the damn president. Get out of the chair. No one wants you at the G7. No one elected you to lead us politically."
Kelly criticized Jill Biden for insisting on being addressed as "Dr Jill Biden," suggesting it reflects a desire for power and a fragile ego. While acknowledging the legitimacy of her PhD, Kelly believes the title "doctor" should be reserved for medical professionals.
He highlighted that his own father, who held a PhD, preferred to be addressed as "professor." He believes Jill Biden's insistence on the title is unnecessary, particularly outside of academic or professional contexts.
Kelly criticized Jill Biden as being power-hungry, linking this perception to her actions on debate night. She compared Jill guiding President Biden down the stairs to a mother helping a toddler.
After the debate, Jill was seen congratulating him, saying, "You did it. You answered all the questions," which Kelly suggested underscored Jill's need for control and affirmation.
"Again, speaking to [him] the way I speak to my dog when he sits on command. This is the leader of the free world. She knows how infirm he is. She wants a shadow presidency," Kelly concluded.
