Former Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly delivered a sharp critique of her own party after Democrats secured significant victories in New Jersey, Virginia, and New York City. Speaking on her SiriusXM show, Kelly argued that the Republican Party is struggling to find its footing without President Donald Trump’s leadership.
"Republicans don’t know how to win without Donald Trump."
She expressed frustration that conservatives focused on a leaked Young Republicans’ group chat controversy involving racist messages rather than addressing the elections themselves.
"The Republican party needs to get its act together ASAP."
Kelly accused party leaders of wasting energy on internal disputes instead of uniting around strategy and policy priorities.
"I’m really glad that the Republicans devoted so much time to that. Way to stick together and shine a light on what matters."
She went further, suggesting that many within the party are comfortable with losing, preferring to play the victim rather than strategize for success in a post-Trump era.
"The Republicans like to lose. They enjoy being embattled and complaining, especially when Donald Trump isn’t there to get them over the line."
Kelly concluded that the GOP must develop strength and vision beyond relying on the president’s influence, insisting on a competent long-term plan to remain competitive in future elections.
Author’s summary: Megyn Kelly warned that Republicans risk repeated losses unless they move beyond internal drama and build a united strategy for a post-Trump future.
