Reports from The Hill state that NBC news anchor Megyn Kelly greatly disapproved of President Trump’s decision to critique Al Franken.
Al Franken, President Trump, and Megyn Kelly
Firstly, Al Franken is facing accusations of inappropriate sexual contact from multiple women. Unlike others facing accusations, there is existing, concrete evidence against Franken. He groped a sleeping Leeann Tweeden’s breasts in a photo and flagrantly joked about raping Lesley Stahl.
As a result of the aforementioned malpractices, President Trump tweeted out the following comments about Franken on Thursday:
The Al Frankenstien picture is really bad, speaks a thousand words. Where do his hands go in pictures 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 while she sleeps? …..

.And to think that just last week he was lecturing anyone who would listen about sexual harassment and respect for women. Lesley Stahl tape?

Apparently, these tweets offended Kelly who made the following remarks on Friday during her NBC show:
Towards the end of the 2016 Presidential election, approximately eleven women accused Mr. Trump of sexual assault. However, there was no evidence to support the aforementioned accusations. Furthermore, the President denied all claims against him.
