Megyn Kelly parodies Michelle Obama as she hits out at former first lady for 'never having a positive word to say'
Megyn Kelly has hit out at Michelle Obama with claims she 'never has a positive word to say' as the former first lady ventures further into the podcast circuit. With her years in the White House behind her, Michelle has revealed a new side to herself by pivoting into the podcast game with a show co-hosted alongside her brother, Craig Robinson - but Megyn is yet to be impressed. While speaking with the hosts of the Ruthless podcast, Megyn shared a clip of herself and Daily Mail columnist Maureen Callahan spoofing a series of Michelle's 'constantly negative' comments. Before showcasing the clip, the journalist joked that she's been getting into the 'parody business,' with 'targets' including Meghan Markle, the women who participated in the Blue Origin space flight, and now the former Democratic first lady. 'Michelle - she should change her name to Misery Obama. That's really what I think of when I [think of her]. Misery Obama never has a positive word to say. Never. Not about children, not about family, certainly not about her husband,' Megyn said, before mimicking some of Michelle's most talked-about comments. In a skit, the conservative commentator played a character named 'Megyn O,' and took aim at Michelle's comments about how expensive it is to live in the White House. 'We made it through. We got out alive. But what happened to me? What happened to me?' Megyn O joked. Megyn said her new nickname for the former first lady was 'Misery Obama' because of her comments on living in the White House and being a wife 'No one talks about it,' Maureen responded, pretending to be 'Megyn O's' sister in an attempt to impersonate Michelle's brother Craig. The two also poked fun at Michelle for remarks she made detailing the difficulties of having kids and marriage. 'We had so much fun doing this,' Megyn told podcast hosts Josh Holmes, Michael Duncan, and Josh Ashbrook. 'Basically - we're doing the things that Saturday Night Live should do. We're targeting the people who should be subjected to scorn and ridicule, but the left won't touch it because they're too revered,' she added. 'We've been having such a good time just saying what's obvious,' Megyn said. Megyn also took aim at Michelle's shocking comments about Barack on a recent episode of IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson. When asked if she had ever wanted a son, Michelle revealed, 'I'm so glad I didn't have a boy, because he would've been a Barack Obama.' Her guest contested that a 'baby Barack' would be 'amazing,' but Michelle quickly disagreed, 'No, I would have felt for him.' Craig then cut in and joked, 'She just borrowed our boys,' referencing Michelle's nephews. Megyn has been a longtime critic of the Obamas and has frequently gone after the former first lady on her podcast. She previously blasted Michelle for comments she made about the harsh realities of marriage. During an episode of IMO, Michelle opened up about the struggles she had in her marriage, revealing that she had a 'bad decade' with Barack. 'I tell people - and folks think this is harsh - it's, like "You're gonna have a bad decade,"' Michelle said. 'I mean, I've been married to my husband for 30-plus years... If the odds were you're going to be married to your partner for 50 years and 10 of those years could be bad, you'd sign up for it. You know, and that's really how it works out.' Megyn referenced the clip on one of her episodes in April, staunchly disagreeing with Michelle's take. She explained that during her 17-year marriage with Douglas Brunt, 'not one was bad.' Michelle's latest attempt to tame the rumor mill has only further fueled speculation that her marriage to Barack is on the rocks. The former first lady addressed the swirling divorce rumors head on in an interview with Rachel Martin, host of NPR's Wild Card podcast, released Thursday. But instead of dismissing the rumors altogether, Michelle deflected and instead left fans wondering if the famous couple really do have something to hide. 'The fact that people don't see me going out on a date with my husband sparks rumors of the end of our marriage,' she told Martin, who jokingly claimed the behavior was the 'apocalypse'. 'It's the apocalypse,' Michelle, 61, echoed, before offering up a rather lackluster excuse: 'We don't take selfies.' 'It's like, "OK, so we don't Instagram every minute of our lives." We are 60. We're 60, y'all. You just are not gonna know what we're doing every minute of the day.' Rumors that the couple's 33-year marriage had unraveled began circulating after Michelle was noticeably absent from several high-profile events earlier this year; including the presidential inauguration and funeral of former President Jimmy Carter. They were further exacerbated last week when Michelle was spotted having lunch with her daughters and another, somewhat surprising companion at an exclusive beach club in Mallorca. Barack, however, was noticeably absent.

‘Trump has zero effs to give about criticism': Megyn Kelly on President's Iran strike decision
The Megyn Kelly Show host Megyn Kelly claims US President Donald Trump has 'zero effs to give' about criticism following America's major decision to strike Iranian nuclear facilities. 'I think President Trump is exactly what we needed him to be. He really is feeling very strong, fired up, and free,' she told Sky News host Paul Murray. 'For the first time in decades, an American president had been asked by the Israelis to drop a bomb on Iran, and the circumstances made it a very viable option. 'Trump was asked to make a tough decision, and he was able to say yes when other presidents weren't and in part of it was because he had better circumstances ... [and] because Trump has zero effs to give about criticism.'
