Megyn Kelly Criticizes GOP After Election Losses
Megyn Kelly sharply criticized the Republican Party for its widespread election defeats across the country, describing Tuesday's results as a “total and complete disaster.”
Election Night Reactions
Tuesday’s election was seen by many as a clear rejection of President Donald Trump’s administration, a view that sparked frustration from Kelly. She used most of her SiriusXM radio show on Wednesday to express disappointment over the GOP's performance nationwide.
“How are you feeling this morning ― like shit? Yeah, I can relate,” Kelly said. “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.”
Kelly on GOP Leadership and Strategy
She pointed out that while Donald Trump remains a strong figure, the Republican Party struggles with strategy and leadership. Kelly stated, “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 Overview
The 2025 elections were the first major test of President Trump's second term and resulted in significant Democratic gains:
- Democrats won governorships in New Jersey and Virginia.
- They increased their seats in Virginia’s House of Delegates.
- Proposition 50 passed in California, countering efforts to gerrymander Republican House seats.
These outcomes have led to concern among prominent Republican figures including Texas senators.
“The 2025 elections marked the first electoral test of Trump’s second term, and by all accounts, the outlook was not good.”
