Megyn Kelly says she's 'disgusted' by New York’s criminal Trump trial. Here's why

The hush money trial of Donald Trump has begun, which is the first time in U.S. history a former president has been tried on criminal charges.

Trump has been charged in a New York Supreme Court indictment, as part of which he faces 34 counts alleging that he falsified New York business records in order to influence the 2016 election.

Megyn Kelly is not only “disgusted” by it but fears “they’re gonna’ get him” this time.

“They’re in the courtroom, the witnesses will be called eventually after they pick the jury, and they’re going to try to put this guy behind bars potentially,” she tells Glenn Beck, adding, “They’re 100% taking their best shot at stopping him from winning this race.”

Kelly compares Trump’s persecution to what it would have been like if Princess Diana was “behaving like a street wh*re.”

“That’s what we’re doing. The United States of America doesn’t do this,” she says. “We’ve gone down this road, pretending a payment to a porn star who is threatening to expose an affair is a crime that warrants 34 counts, and they’re going to make it as sleazy as humanly possible.”

Trump isn’t the only president to have his morals called into question, just the only one to face criminal charges for it.

“Bill Clinton perjured himself, and nothing happened there,” Glenn says, referring to the affair Clinton had with Monica Lewinsky, during which Clinton lied under oath about his relationship with the intern. “Everybody just walked away.”

“What’s the difference between these two?” Glenn says, pointing the question at Kelly.

“One’s a Democrat, and one’s a Republican,” she answers.
