Megyn Kelly praises Trump after Supreme Court decisions

Conservative pundit Megyn Kelly offered praise of former President Trump following the Supreme Court decided a slew of cases this week in favor of causes championed by the right.

“A spectacular day for Donald Trump whose three conservative picks for SCOTUS were integral to the historic decisions yesterday and today,” Kelly tweeted Friday morning. “Major feather in his cap and will likely (& rightfully) be touted by his campaign in coming months.”

The high court late this week made a series of closely-watched rulings, including a strikedown of affirmative action in college admissions, the backing of a Christian website designer who refused to provide wedding websites to a same-sex couple, and a rebuke of President Biden’s federal student loan forgiveness program.

Three members of the court’s 6-3 conservative majority were appointed by Trump: Justices Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett.

Trump celebrated the affirmative action ruling in a social media post Thursday, saying it was “a great day for America.”

Trump has feuded in the past with Kelly, a former Fox News anchor, most notably after she pressed him on the debate stage regarding his offensive comments about women during his 2016 presidential campaign.
