Megyn Kelly Criticizes Republicans After Election Defeats
Megyn Kelly, former Fox News host, strongly criticized the GOP following widespread losses in the 2025 elections, describing the results as a "total and complete disaster."
Election Night Results and Kelly's Reaction
Tuesday's elections were widely seen as a backlash against President Donald Trump's administration, a view that deeply disappointed Kelly. On Wednesday's episode of her SiriusXM radio show, she focused on the Republican Party's failures nationwide.
“How are you feeling this morning ― like shit? Yeah, I can relate,” Kelly began. “The Republican party needs to get its shit together ASAP ... They enjoy when they are embattled and in a losing position and complaining ― they love it. They do it really well.”
Critique of Republican Strategy
Kelly argued that Republicans lack effective leadership and strategy, especially without Trump’s direct influence, saying:
“Donald Trump is strong. Republicans don’t know how to win. They don’t know who to run, they don’t know what to do when Daddy’s not there to fly them across the finish line.”
2025 Election Outcomes
- Democrats won governorships in New Jersey and Virginia.
- They increased seats in Virginia’s House of Delegates.
- California voters passed Proposition 50, countering Trump’s gerrymandering efforts aimed at securing more Republican House seats.
These results have triggered responses from many prominent Republicans, including Texas senators.
Summary: Megyn Kelly condemns the Republican Party’s poor electoral performance, blaming weak leadership and strategy in the post-Trump era.
