Governor Pat McCrory may have assumed he was on friendly territory Thursday night but it became apparent quickly in was in for a tough interview. The North Carolina Republican has become the face of the highly-controversial and, many legal experts say, unconstitutional HB2, a wide-sweeping anti-LGBT law that bans transgender people from using public restrooms that conform to their gender identity.

After two minutes of explanation, Fo News host Megyn Kelly opens hard: "Governor, what was the fear that led to the enactment of this law?"...

Kelly wasn't going to let McCrory steer the interview his way, interrupting him to state that HB2 applies to public restrooms. "But why?," she asked again. "What was the concern? What was the evidence, specifically, that led you to believe this was a problem?"...

"I’ve been in women’s bathrooms my whole life," she quipped. "And we don’t have the urinal situation. We got like the stalls. We get to go in, we do our business, and like it’s not – we don’t see each other. So why are you concerned about young girls exposing themselves or seeing somebody else exposed, in a women’s bathroom?”

I'm starting to warm up to Megyn Kelly. First she takes down Trump, now McCrony!
