In a fiery response, Megyn Kelly took aim at a Republican senator who attempted to explain a 44% increase in gas prices by pointing to the war in Iran. Calling the explanation "fcking bullsht," Kelly dismissed the attempt as a spin, arguing that the senator's reasoning was misleading and out of touch with the reality Americans face at the pump.
The comment came during a segment of The Megyn Kelly Show, where the host reacted to the senator's remarks with characteristic bluntness. She emphasized that rising gas prices are a pressing issue for many, and that political figures should offer straightforward explanations rather than what she perceives as excuses.
Kelly's reaction underscores the broader frustration among consumers and commentators alike, as fuel costs continue to climb. The short video clip has since gone viral, sparking debate over the causes of inflation and the role of geopolitical conflicts in shaping domestic economic conditions.
