Conservative commentator Tomi Lahren told Fox Business’ Stuart Varney Thursday that she’s “ready” for her upcoming debate on President Trump against comedian Chelsea Handler.

“I’m excited about debating Chelsea Handler,” the former Blaze TV Host explained when asked about her debate at Politicon next week in southern California. “Most people wouldn’t be too excited about that. I’m excited for the conversation, it needs to happen.” (RELATED: Tomi Lahren To Debate Chelsea Handler At Politicon)

“I find most liberals, they don’t quite know why [they hate Trump], especially in Hollywood, they don’t quite know why they hate President Trump so much,” she added.  “They just do. I want to know why.”

“Do you think she is going to demigod,” Varney asked. “Do you think she is going to abandon that laughter making role and be just plain nasty?”

“Comedians are tricky,” Lahren explained. “What they do is when they are not solid on the issues or the policy then they revert to the humor and they make a mockery of you. But luckily I’ve been there, I’ve done that.”

“Did it with Trevor Noah on the “Daily Show,” so I’m ready for this one,” she added. “I think the liberals are always going to say Chelsea won as soon as she walks on stage. But for me it’s about holding my own ground, sticking to my principles, defending this America first agenda, defending President Trump where he needs to be defended. I’m going to have some fun with it.”
