Megyn Kelly Responds to Mark Levin's X Attacks Against Her and Trump's Truth Post

Megyn Kelly responded to Mark Levin's personal attacks on X (formerly Twitter) by mocking his manhood and accusing him of "running to Daddy" after Donald Trump issued a Truth Social post defending him. The feud, which intensified in March 2026, stems from deep divisions among conservative media figures regarding U.S. military action in Iran.

 

Key Events in the Feud

The Initial Attack: Mark Levin blasted Kelly on X as an "emotionally unhinged, lewd, and petulant wreck" following her criticism of the Iran war.

Kelly's Counter-Attack: On March 15, 2026, Kelly fired back, labeling him "Microp---- Mark" and claiming he "tweets about me obsessively in the crudest, nastiest terms possible" because he cannot handle women fighting back.

Trump's Truth Social Post: On Sunday night, March 15, Donald Trump posted on Truth Social defending Levin as a "Great American Patriot" and "THE GREAT ONE". He claimed Levin was "under siege" by people with "far less intellect" and stated that those who speak ill of Levin are "NOT MAGA".

Kelly's Reaction to Trump: On the March 16 installment of The Megyn Kelly Show, she called Trump's defense "ridiculous" and claimed Levin was a "pathetic, weakling bully" who ran to the president to beg for public praise rather than "dealing with it like a man".

 

Political Context

The Iran War Split: The dispute reflects a broader "civil war" within the MAGA movement. Levin is a staunch supporter of military action in Iran, while Kelly and other figures like Tucker Carlson have voiced isolationist views or "serious doubts" about the conflict.

"MAGA-Adjacent": Responding to Trump's claim that critics of Levin are not MAGA, Kelly stated she is "happily" "MAGA-adjacent" and warned that Trump is "going to further destroy his own coalition" with such rhetoric.

Public Support: Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene publicly sided with Kelly, stating on X that she "wholeheartedly support[s]" Kelly's insults toward Levin and that Trump's defense of him "only enraged the base more".

Levin has denied that he personally asked Trump to release the statement, calling his critics "reprobates" full of "lies and conspiracies"
