Conservative media personality Megyn Kelly plans to attend former President Trump’s rally in Pittsburgh the night before the election and speak on his behalf.

She said she “never expected” she would be invited to play for Trump and told her audience in a short clip on social media that at Monday night’s event she will “explain to that crowd and beyond why I think it is absolutely essential that he wins this victory.” election.”

“I have all kinds of reasons that won’t be a surprise to the people listening to this show,” she said.

Kelly is the second prominent conservative media pundit and former Fox News host to campaign with Trump.

The former president has held fireside chats and hosted campaign events with commentator Tucker Carlson, who has spoken on Trump’s behalf and took the former president on a speaking tour this year.

Kelly and Trump have a complicated relationship that goes back years.

When Kelly was still at Fox in 2015, she famously pressed him about his comments about women during a Republican Party primary debate. Trump later attacked Kelly, saying that during the episode there was “blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her, everywhere.”

Kelly has since said she and Trump have repaired their relationship, and today she is using her popular podcast and online commentary show to promote the former president and his allies.

She complained last week about Trump’s controversial rally at Madison Square Garden, calling it too “bro-tastic” and warning that Trump could hurt women voters.
