NRA's Ted Nugent Defends Trump's Lewd Comments About Megyn Kelly By Making His Own Lewd Comments About Megyn Kelly

Nugent: I Like To Look At Her While I'm Loading My Gun “Naked On The Couch”

National Rifle Association board member Ted Nugent sided with Donald Trump in the candidate's recent feud with Fox News host Megyn Kelly, calling Trump “a good guy” and saying he turns on Kelly's show “just to look at her” and often does so naked, while loading his gun.

In the wake of Fox News' Aug. 6 Republican presidential debate, Trump and the network engaged in a short-lived feud that began when Kelly, one of the debate's three moderators, asked Trump to address his history of derogatory and sexist comments about women, including calling them “fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting animals.”

After the debate, Trump ignited controversy by saying of Kelly: “You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes. Blood coming out of her -- wherever,” a remark many took as a reference to menstruation. The ensuing dust-up between Trump and Kelly's employer, Fox News, ended days later following a phone call between Trump and network president Roger Ailes.

During an Aug. 12 appearance on WIBX's Keeler in the Morning, Nugent defended Trump, whom he says is his favorite presidential candidate, by making crude comments about Kellyand suggesting she may be becoming “stupid.”

Nugent said, “I'm a big fan of Donald Trump because I believe in bold, aggressive, unapologetic truth. Period. And I'm not a fan of Megyn Kelly, although I often turn on Fox just to look at her. Sometimes when I'm loading my [gun ammunition] magazines, I like to just look at her. And I usually sit naked on the couch dropping hot brass on my stuff.”

Nugent then criticized Kelly for asking Trump about his history of sexist comments, stating, “I'm afraid the gorgeous, stunning, otherwise professional and tuned-in Megyn Kelly absolutely fell of the cliff of political correctness when she proposed that obnoxious, meaningless, nonsensical, biased question for Donald Trump.”

Nugent continued: “Megyn Kelly absolutely broke all of our hearts as only a Megyn Kelly could when she went into the status quo world. She isn't status quo, but she started acting, and sounding, and looking like one, and I don't believe she is. I think she is playing some games, either that or she's getting bad advice, either that or she's just getting stupid. Either way, Donald Trump is the good guy, currently Megyn Kelly ain't.”

Like Trump, Nugent has a history of misogynist commentary. He has called Hillary Clinton a “worthless bitch” and a “toxic cunt,” and labeled other women “worthless whore,” “fat pig,” and “dirty whore.”

During his appearance on WIBX, Nugent called model and actress Charlotte McKinney a “fine-ass, greasy-ass bitch” in the context of a discussion about fast food chain Carl Jr.'s 2015 Super Bowl commercial, which featured McKinney and Nugent's music.
