Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly ripped into some of the most vocal supporters of Donald Trump’s war in Iran, listing the names of people she said pushed him into the conflict.

“Stop with that ‘it’s President Trump’s decision.’ I’m aware, but someone talked him into it, and those people should be held to account,” Kelly said on Friday’s episode of her show. “As this thing goes south, we need to know exactly who talked him into it, and what representations were made to convince the president that this was a good idea. Who? Who, specifically?”

The podcaster is one of a few conservative personalities, including Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, who have publicly opposed Trump’s war. An NBC News poll from earlier this month revealed that 90% of self-identified MAGA-aligned Republican voters support the war, while a majority of voters overall oppose it.

      A traitor to whom? The billionaire class quite literally owns all the property.

      By not supporting the reigning despots, it’s liberals and leftists who are definitionally the traitors.

      The people ruling the county aren’t on your side. They are your enemies.

        I don’t think anyone here is conflating traitor with “doesn’t support the government”. A traitor is someone who betrays the nation; one who actively undermines the security of the country. Not National Security™, but rather actively working against the thing liberals call freedom and democracy.

        The government belongs to and serves the people, not the other way around. The traitors are currently hijacking the government for their own ends and no one seems willing to do anything to stop them.
