Would-Be Reagan Assassin John Hinckley Jr. on Trump Assassination Attempts, Jodie Foster Obsession, and His Life Now | Ep. 1343

Megyn Kelly is joined by John Hinckley Jr., musician, artist, and author of "John Hinckley Jr.: Who I Really Am," to talk about what he thought when he saw another Trump assassination attempt at the "Hinckley Hilton," the rise of political violence in America today, people reaching out to him on X to commit further violence against Trump, what an "erotomaniac" actually is, Hinckley's delusion that led to his Jodie Foster obsession, what happened when he actually saw Foster in person at Yale, what led him to start thinking about hurting someone to impress Jodie Foster, his initial targets of Jimmy Carter and even Ted Kennedy, the circumstances that led to his assassination attempt on President Ronald Reagan, how easy it was to get close to Reagan to take the shots, his reaction to Reagan and James Brady's comments about him, what he'd say to their family members now, his communication with Ted Bundy, what life was like in the psychiatric facility, getting released and what life is like now, and more.
