Ann Joins Megyn Kelly to Defend Donald Trump's Comments about Mexicans

    On Tuesday, June 16, 2015, Donald Trump gave a speech to announce his presidential run for 2016. Critics said he was racist toward Mexicans. Geraldo Rivera joined Megyn Kelly to discuss Trump's comments. Kelly suggested that Ann should debate Rivera on immigration and Trump's comments, so Ann did and the video was posted on Tuesday, June 30, 2015.

    On Wednesday, July 1, 2015, at 8:05am, Billy Hallowell of the Blaze released a pseudo-transcript.

    On Wednesday, July 8, 2015, at 2:26 pm, James Beattie credited Ann with raising Kelly's viewership into the #1 spot.

    On Thursday, July 9, 2015, Ann and Rivera visited Hannity to debate once more.

    Here are the last comments before the close of the debate:

"Kelly: We can end with that point of agreement... in a very nice debate. I have to say... they were civil...

Ann: Everything Geraldo said was false.

[Kelly laughs.]

Rivera: Everything Ann has written is false, but I like her." [Quote found in minute 6.]

    If you do not have time to listen to the almost 7 minutes, here is what they talked about:

Minutes 0-1: Recap of Trump's comments on immigration and Rivera's comments on Trump.
Minute 1: Illegals do not have a right to be here, so none should be criminals.
Minute 2: Who is on LA's most wanted list?
Minutes 2-3: Rivera explains how rude Ann is, but he does not think she is racist.
Minute 4: Ann says Rivera is probably not a racist either, but he is dangerously close to being one. Immigrants are piggybacking on black history.
Minute 5: California prisons don't have that many white or black inmates, so who else could the inmates be besides Hispanics? Rivera explains immigrants pay in more to the government than they take out.
Minutes 5-6: Rivera says we all are immigrants.
Minute 6: Rivera mentions the Italians and Irish. Kelly defined polemicist. Close.
