Megyn Kelly is speaking out — and not holding back — when it comes to President Donald Trump’s recent rhetoric.
In one clip from The Megyn Kelly Showshared on X on Wednesday April 8, Kelly slammed Trump’s viral Truth Social post in which he declared, “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.” In response, Kelly, 55, called Trump’s actions “completely irresponsible and disgusting,” in an expletive-filled rant.
“I don’t know about you, but I am sick of this s**t!” the former Fox News host said. “Can’t he just behave like a normal human?”
“F**king shut up about that s**t!” she continued. “You don’t threaten to wipe out an entire civilization. We’re talking about civilians, just casually in a social media post.”

While the podcaster acknowledged the comments could be part of a negotiation strategy, she made clear she believes the tone crosses a line for a sitting president.
The backlash didn’t stop there. While one critic on X commented under a clip of Kelly’s rant that, “Trump has lost the American right!” another user called Kelly’s remarks “theatre of the absurd” and accused her of “selective outrage,” while pointing out that just one day earlier Kelly declared to her listeners that, “Trump could drop a nuke and I’d still vote Republican over Democrat.”
