Megyn Kelly said that Donald Trump was right to storm out on 'rude' Meet the Press host Kristen Welker after their interview became tense this weekend.The former Fox News host defended Trump after Welker pressed him on claims that the 2020 election was rigged, prompting Trump to walk out of the interview. Kelly claimed Welker 'made that moment about Kristen Welker' and refused to stop battering the President. 'I don't blame him. I gotta' be honest, I don't blame him. When you are interviewing the President of the United States, especially Donald Trump, you're going to have to give him a little, you've got to give him something,' she said. 'There's a back-and-forth in an interview where you just keep battering him over the head at every turn.'The SiriusXM host believes that journalists face pressure to 'take every point on' that Trump pontificates because 'otherwise you're an election denier.'She also thinks Welker should have admitted that Spencer Pratt's drop to third place in the Los Angeles mayoral election should be treated as a serious scandal. 'Kristen Welker, you're undermined your own credibility. You think you're boosting it for NBC by not giving him what everybody can see, which is it's suspicious as hell,' Kelly said of socialist Nithya Raman's rise.'Who do they think they're kidding? It's smells. We don't believe it.' Megyn Kelly said that Donald Trump was right to storm out on 'rude' NBC Meet the Press host Kristen Welker as their interview became tense this weekend Welker pressed the President on his claims that the 2020 election was rigged, prompting Trump to walk out of the interview Kelly said that Trump's move with interviewers is to antagonize them and that Welker took the bait instead of 'trying to be playful, maybe try to lighten the mood.' 'The whole thing was very antagonistic, and so if you watch the whole thing, there was a lot of this prior to the moment we just showed you. And honestly, by the time he got up and walked, I didn't blame him, and I wasn't surprised. She was rude.'Trump snapped at Welker when she demanded proof for his contested assertion that the 2020 election had been ‘stolen.’ President Trump then called her a liar to her face.'The elections are like a third world country. Your elections are crooked, and you're crooked, and "Meet the Press" is crooked, and so is ABC, CBS and CNN.'As Welker tried to intervene, the president said: 'You're one-sided crooked networks. Let's call it quits,' Trump lashed during the interview that aired Sunday.'I've had enough, thank you darling, have a good time,' the fuming president said as he began to stand, ready to storm out.A frantic Welker begged him to stay, saying she had traveled to Wisconsin for the exclusive sit-down. President Donald Trump walked out during an interview with NBC's Meet the Press'Mr President please, I traveled all the way to Wisconsin,' Welker pleaded.Trump pushed back: 'I've sat in the rain with you for an hour! On and off in the rain. I've given you enough time.'You ought to straighten out your press. You know what? A country can never be great with a dishonest press. Let's go,' he said.Trump stood and started to walk off, while Welker continued to ask him to stay.The exchange boiled over when Welker pressed Trump on a $1.8 billion fund for people claiming they were targeted by the Biden administration's alleged government 'weaponization.'She asked the president if he planned to scrap the fund after acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said the administration would not pursue it.'Just to be very clear, are you backing off the fund completely as your acting attorney general, Todd Blanche, has said, or are you looking for another avenue to revive the fund?' Welker pressed. Trump stood his ground, defending the billion-dollar proposal and claiming people were harmed by officials in the previous administration. Kelly thinks Welker should have admitted that Spencer Pratt's (pictured) drop to third place in the Los Angeles mayoral election should be treated as a serious scandal 'Kristen Welker, you're undermined your own credibility. You think you're boosting it for NBC by not giving him what everybody can see, which is it's suspicious as hell,' Kelly said of socialist Nithya Raman's (pictured) rise 'People have been hurt so badly by radical left lunatics that worked for the Biden administration and Sleepy Joe,' the president said. 'They’re vicious. They’re violent, what they did to people. And, of course, they went after me more than anybody else,' he added.The commander-in-chief added that he backed reviving the proposed fund but noted it would require approval.Trump later rampaged on about the press and the Biden administration, accusing them of ruining Americans’ lives.'I love the idea, because people like you, the fake dirty press, the crooked press, people like stupid Biden, he’s not smart enough to know what’s going on, but people that surrounded him, surrounded his beautiful Resolute Desk in the Oval Office, what they did to the lives of people, they destroyed people,' Trump slammed. Welker responded: 'Just to be very clear, there’s no evidence of what you’re saying.''There’s a lot of evidence, listen to me. There’s tremendous evidence. There’s nothing but evidence,' Trump fired back.The president pivoted to the 2020 election, calling it 'rigged' and linking it to California’s current state elections, before storming out.Prior to the walkout, Trump discussed with Welker that he is not ruling out sending American troops on the ground in Iran to retrieve and destroy its highly enriched uranium. As the conflict in Iran has persisted for over three months, Trump said that he thinks an end is near, as long as a ceasefire holds.Part of a deal between the United States and Iran may involve sending US forces to retrieve what Trump called 'nuclear dust', in a conversation with the Meet the Press moderator.'But the way you do it is if we make a deal, if we make a deal now we're friendly, we'll all go together. It'll be our equipment. 'We'll take it out and destroy it, whether it's onsite or whether we take it offsite,' he continued.Still, the President insisted that US troops would not be in harm's way, even if they are sent to Iran, insisting that he will diminish Iran's military strength enough for American personnel to safely retrieve the material themselves.'We will go with them, or without them. But we won't have people shooting at us, okay?' Trump stated, 'Now, if we don't make a deal, then we're going to take them out militarily very harshly. 'And we'll wait till we do that before we go, in which case we'll have safety either way.'
