Summary

Megyn Kelly is joined by Victor Davis Hanson, author of "The End of Everything," to discuss President Trump’s massive new EU tariff deal, why it’s a major win for Americans, how Democrats and the media falsely predicted the tariffs would be an economic disaster, why Democrats are facing record-low approval ratings, their incoherent current crop of leaders, Trump’s nuanced position on Russia and Putin, how he can bring the war to an end, the truth about inflation under Trump, the fallout from Stephen Colbert’s firing, Jay Leno’s advice not to alienate half the country and simply be funny, the insane leftist backlash against Sydney Sweeney’s new ads with American Eagle, the double entendre about "jeans" and "genes," the viral video of a horrible fight in Cincinnati, the heroic actions of Marine veteran Derrick Perry during a mass stabbing at Walmart, how he ran toward the danger to protect others, and more.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Megan Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east.
0:12.2	Hey everyone, I'm Megan Kelly. Welcome to the Megan Kelly show and happy Monday. Before we get
0:16.7	started today, I want to share with you some big news about our universe here at the
0:21.2	MK show and our independent media company. As you know, I own it entirely. We don't take
0:26.5	outside corporate money for shares in our company, and that keeps yours truly squarely in control
0:33.7	of our editorial. That doesn't change. Today, we announced that we have hired Hope Hicks
0:40.2	as our first chief operating officer to build on the success we have had so far and grow it even
0:46.1	bigger. You know Hope. She's the former White House Communications Director under Trump and the
0:50.2	first administration, among other top jobs. And I am absolutely thrilled that she has
0:55.0	joined our team. Thanks to all of you, the company's been growing, growing, growing, and we've added
0:58.5	MK Media and all of our friends who are growing in that lane from Emily Jashinsky to Mark

1:19.5	best of the best. I mean, Hope Hicks is incredibly smart. She's a smart, strategic thinker. I've
1:25.8	spent hours and hours with her. She's going to help us grow this thing just exactly as it should. And she's not going to try to take it leftward as virtually every other executive in media would likely try to do. I mean, it's just the nature of media. It attracts the leftists. So I'm thrilled. She's on board. And we are really lucky to have her. Thank you you guys, all of you for making the company grow and making a hire like that possible for us.
1:49.5	We will repay it to you in many fold.
1:53.0	Okay, more announcements still to come.
1:54.6	Stay tuned.
1:55.1	But I want to get to what's happening today.
1:56.9	Former President Donald Trump in Scotland now making tons of news at an impromptu press
