The Fox News host complimented the president-elect while she was speaking at the Hollywood Reporter’s “Women in Entertainment” breakfast.
“Despite the tweets and all the rest of it, there is much to admire about Donald Trump,” Kelly said before getting cut off by Kathy Griffin, who shouted, “Fuck him!”
“Guess who that is? Kathy Griffin,” Kelly said. “There is — stop that, stop that. There’s room for the loyal opposition in this country, absolutely.”
Griffin then flipped Kelly the middle finger.

“The more we understand that and the more we understand why he won this election, the better off we’ll be,” Kelly continued.
“We should appeal to his best angels and hold him to account when the little devils appear. When and if the dark forces rear their heads, we must maintain our dignity.”
“As women, we must reject the urge to fight with pigs — which gets us dirty and the pigs enjoy. But if a fight is unavoidable, then fight with composure, and grace. And we let our children see us do it — standing tall and sometimes playing hurt.”
Griffin later tweeted about what happened.
