Megyn Kelly urged that Donald Trump's political enemies need to "suffer" and endorsed inflicting pain and punishment as a means to restore a prior political order. She framed Republican actions as justified retaliation, citing alleged failures to prosecute Hillary Clinton and asserting Democrats attempted to ruin Trump personally and professionally. Kelly cited the arrests of Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro for contempt as examples of Democratic accountability while arguing conservatives should stop taking the high road. MSNBC noted factual contradictions, and records show Trump sought Clinton prosecution in 2018 and publicly called for her incarceration before 2020.
I mean, we didn't prosecute Hillary Clinton. We did not go after her. We did not lock her up. We tried to take the high road. They didn't accept the olive branch. They tried to ruin Trump personally, Trump professionally, Trump's presidency, and many around him.
They're [Democrats] the ones who locked up Steve Bannon for contempt of Congress, Peter Navarro for contempt of Congress. We didn't try to lock up Merrick Garland when he committed it. It's time. I'm fucking done taking the high road. They have to suffer.
