Former Obama speech writer calls Megyn Kelly ‘truly pathetic’ after she criticizes Biden

Kelly hit back at the tweet, “Written like a man who’s been in his basement for a year.”

“You are truly pathetic,” replied Jon Favreau, who worked as Obama’s director of speech writing, and later founded the media company Crooked Media.

Kelly hit back again, telling Favreau that he has no understanding how 70 million Americans feel after being “attacked relentlessly for the past four years as awful” people.

“You have zero understanding of the mood of 70 million Americans who have been unfairly attacked relentlessly for the past four years as awful ppl just for supporting their president,” she wrote.

“And you sound like Donald Trump spreading conspiracies about a basement. I thought you were supposed to be above that, having been on the receiving end of them yourself. Guess not,” Favreau responded.

Kelly, who recently launched a new podcast called The Megyn Kelly Show, tweeted last week that President Trump should concede that he lost the election.

“Trump is right to make sure we had a fair election. To ensure there’s no widespread proof of voter fraud that could change the result. And then, when it becomes clear-as it now is-that it is over for him, he must do the gracious, patriotic, right thing: concede, & pass the torch,” she tweeted Saturday.

Trump has not conceded and is in the midst of legal battles, saying Saturday that Biden has not been certified as the winner of the election “of ant states.”

“Joe Biden has not been certified as the winner of any states, let alone any of the highly contested states headed for mandatory recounts, or states where our campaign has valid and legitimate legal challenges that could determine the ultimate victor,” Trump said in a written statement. “In Pennsylvania, for example, our legal observers were not permitted meaningful access to watch the counting process. Legal votes decide who is president, not the news media.”
