NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Megyn Kelly has found a new adversary, following a report by ABC correspondent Martha Raddatz that Jill Biden has been urging her husband, Joe Biden, to remain in the presidential race.

The podcast host criticized the first lady for targeting those who do not express unwavering support for the president.

In a recent ABC News segment, Raddatz reported, “Administrative officials I have spoken to said that the very tight inner circle is telling the President that he can win and that he needs to keep going. This, of course, includes his wife, who is lashing out at those who want him to get out of the race.”

Kelly reacted to these comments by writing, “This is sick. SICK.”



 

Reportedly, doubts about Joe Biden's ability to overcome Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election have escalated after his worrisome performance in their first presidential debate.

Throughout the debate, Biden frequently mumbled and appeared to lose his focus while attempting to answer the moderator's questions.

Following the TV special, Kelly criticized the father of four on the June 27 episode of her podcast, 'The Megyn Kelly Show'.

"I want to talk to you directly about what we just saw on stage in Atlanta. In my view, it is over for Joe Biden. His presidential campaign came to an end tonight, whether he knows it or not. There will be meetings tonight, first thing tomorrow, and for the foreseeable future among Democratic Party leaders about how to get him off the ticket," she said.

Kelly then said that top Democrats, who seldom criticize the president, are beginning to suggest Biden should reassess his performance and consider whether to continue his campaign. This sentiment is expected to grow.

She described the debate as an "unmitigated disaster" and uncomfortable to watch, with Kelly and her companions expressing visible discomfort during the first 25 minutes.

"It was so jarring. He was so distant, so frail, so hard to comprehend, so unsteady. I honestly didn’t know whether he was going to make it through the answer, never mind through the debate or through a second term," the former Fox News reporter ranted.

Internet supports Megyn Kelly's denouncement of Jill Biden

Social media rallied behind Kelly as she took a diss at Jill Biden for "lashing out at those who want him to get out of the race"

A viewer expressed, "Both Joe and Jill deserve every harsh criticism coming to them. Again I don’t want anything to physical happen, but the public humiliation is retribution for what they have done to this country."

In a similar fashion, another observer added, "MSM wants Biden out. “Dr” Jill has no idea how ruthless the media is and how hard they will come at her."

Furthermore, a viewer pointed out, "It’s sad a this point when we see a drugged up elder do his best to talk about an issue but his age and decay are evident in his responses and movements."

Joining the discussion, a follower shared, "It seems @FLOTUS  is an evil little witch drunk on power. She doesn’t care about Joe’s health, only her own interests. The entire family has rode on his coattails for decades."

A remark underscored, "She is truly a monster."

Similarly, another comment echoed, "That sounds about right. This is all about Jill. Very disturbing."

"Drunk with power and shallow in character every last one of them!" read one tweet.
