In a recent exchange of verbal jabs, former President Donald Trump and former Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly reignited their longstanding feud. The latest round of attacks began after Kelly questioned Trump's mental sharpness and claimed that he had lost "multiple steps" due to his age. Trump, never one to shy away from a fight, fired back on his Truth Social platform, referring to Kelly as the "biggest loser" and questioning what had happened to her. He criticized her for losing whatever credibility she once had, taking a swipe at her podcast and dismissing her past success.

The feud between Trump and Kelly dates back to the 2016 presidential election when Kelly grilled Trump during a GOP debate about his derogatory comments towards women. Trump responded with a controversial comment about "blood coming out of her wherever," which he later claimed was referring to her nose. Despite this contentious history, there appeared to be a temporary truce between the two in the months following the election.

However, Kelly's recent comments about Trump's mental competency reopened old wounds. She pointed out instances where Trump had confused countries and cities, suggesting that these were signs of cognitive decline. She emphasized that Trump, like anyone else, is not immune to the effects of aging. Kelly also contrasted Trump's mental state with that of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who had made a reference to "Father Time spares no one" during a recent speech. She insinuated that DeSantis, despite being a Trump supporter, acknowledged the reality of aging.

Trump's response was swift and characteristic of his combative style. He not only attacked Kelly but also targeted DeSantis and former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie. Trump referred to DeSantis as “DeSanctimonious” and labeled Christie as "sloppy." In an unexpected twist, Trump declared biotech mogul Vivek Ramaswamy as the true winner of the debate, solely because Ramaswamy expressed admiration for Trump.

The exchange between Trump and Kelly has not gone unnoticed by their respective supporters and political opponents. DeSantis' team seized the opportunity to circulate the clip of Kelly's comments, emphasizing the contrast between Trump's mental acuity and the governor's acknowledgment of the aging process. They subtly suggested that Trump's age might hinder his ability to lead effectively.

Trump, on the other hand, has been dismissive of accusations of cognitive decline, arguing that his intentional slip-ups are meant to highlight the influence of others in running the country. He has portrayed himself as a victim of a “Disinformation Machine” orchestrated by the Democrats and his political opponents.

As this feud continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how it will impact Trump's political future and his relationships with other prominent figures in the Republican Party. The clash between Trump and Kelly serves as a reminder of the deep divisions and personal animosities that still exist within the GOP.
