Megyn Kelly aggressively questioned Republican primary candidates Ron DeSantis, Nikki Haley, and Vivek Ramaswamy during a recent debate.
DeSantis was challenged on his declining poll numbers despite significant spending, while Haley was grilled about her ties to big corporations and billionaires.
“But here we are a month out from the first real votes, and you haven’t managed to do it,” Kelly said to DeSantis regarding his failure to consolidate non-Trump votes. (Trending: Elon Musk Condemns Arrest Of Jan 6 Protester)
“In fact, Nikki Haley is beating you in New Hampshire and South Carolina now and closing in on you in Iowa,” Kelly added.
“Is it fair to say … voters are telling you ‘not no, but not now’?” Kelly asked.
DeSantis answered, “We have a great idea in America that the voters actually make these decisions, not pundits or pollsters.”
“Aren’t you too tight with the banks and the billionaires to win over the GOP’s working-class base, which mostly wants to break the system, not elect someone beholden to it?” Kelly asked Nikki Haley.
“We will take support from anybody. I don’t ask them what their policies are, they ask me what my policies are,” Haley said.
“We will take support from anybody we can take support from, but I have been a conservative fighter all my life,” she added.
Ramaswamy was criticized for his shifting demeanor in previous debates.
The debate aimed to highlight each candidate’s vulnerabilities ahead of the upcoming Iowa caucuses.
