Former President Donald Trump and social media mogul Elon Musk had a conversation earlier this week which attracted millions of viewers.

Among those who tuned in was podcast host Megyn Kelly. During a subsequent episode of her show, Kelly made clear that she wasn't impressed by what she heard.  

Kelly says Trump "rambles" and "goes on too long"

According to Mediaite, the host accused Trump of putting on a "rambling" performance that caused her and other audience members to become "bored" and "lose interest."

"I will say that in that discussion with Elon, to me he seemed quite rambling," the website quoted Kelly as telling pollster Nate Silver.

"I mean it was like he rambles, he goes on too long — at his rallies and in these exchanges and at his presser the other day — to where you get kind of bored, you lose the thread, you lose interest, which is not something you’re used to with Trump," she continued.

Kelly's comments came after Silver argued that the media should be more inquisitive when it comes to Trump's cognitive abilities as well as those of President Joe Biden.

Silver points to Trump's long acceptance speech at GOP convention

The host went on to contrast the former president's style with how he performed in the past, saying, "Trump in 2016, he was tough to lose interest in, and I think that’s probably an age-related change."

"So I think this is one of the challenges of the people around him, who are I'm sure desperately trying to get him to stick on message," she added.

Silver agreed with that assessment and brought up the long speech Trump delivered last month at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.

The pollster recalled being impressed by "the first thirty minutes or so of the convention speech," saying, "OK, he’s just gonna win this election."

Silver says presidential race remains a toss-up

"It was a kinder, gentler, softer side of Trump," Silver noted before pointing out that the former president's remarks came just days after a failed assassination attempt.

"It was their election to lose — and they haven’t lost it yet, it's 50-50, more or less — but they have fumbled the ball in a pretty profound way, I think," Silver argued.

Silver said on Thursday that while his polling model currently favors Harris to win in November by a narrow margin, he nevertheless considers the presidential race to be a toss-up.
