Megyn Kelly thinks Donald Trump sounded 'presidential' in Super Tuesday speech


Following Donald Trump's slew of Super Tuesday wins, Fox News host Megyn Kelly said she thought the GOP frontrunner displayed a more subdued version of himself during his press conference.
Trump "struck a reasonable tone, he wasn't full of the normal bombast," she said. "There were a few jabs, but [he's] sounding presidential, which will help some of his detractors see him in a different light, perhaps."
Kelly herself has a complicated history with Trump, who criticized her debate moderation style by saying she had "blood coming out of her wherever" and retweeted someone who called her a "bimbo."
