When we look back on all of this, one of the hardest things to rationalize will be that the actual crazies like Tucker, MTG, Candace Owens and Alex Jones found the spine to call Trump what he really is and call for his removal from office far earlier than the "normal" Republicans like the entire congressional delegation and the conservative posters here.
And it’s not like these scumbag opportunists suddenly saw the light. They simply realized that the useful idiot was slowly but surely becoming more useful as a foil than a hero.

Looong way down, it’s going to get ugly.

These right-wing turds hate us and America more, A LOT MORE, than they now disagree with Trump.
 
Fox has not changed. It was the same when you were there, Megyn.
That's what I was thinking. Fox has been nothing but a GOP propaganda network from the very beginning. It was never primarily a straight news network, although in its earlier years they had some credible reporters like Chris Wallace and Shepard Smith. However, those people were all eventually driven out of the network, and even with them the primetime lineup was always nothing but right-wing talking head opinion programs. Fox has always been a joke of a news network, but it's been a brilliantly effective Republican propaganda machine - and Megyn was happily a part of all that in her Fox days.

And while they're telling the truth about Fox and Trump now, I do think it's clear that the main motivation of all of these former Fox hosts - Kelly and Carlson foremost among them - is bitterness. It's a long and unhappy fall from influential Fox News superstar with a top-rated show to a mostly ignored podcaster/satellite radio host with a dinky audience that's a fraction of what you used to have.

Exactly.

“Megyn Kelly: “After 14 years inside Fox News, I’m exposing what viewers refuse to see—how the network morphed from news into a propaganda machine designed purely to cheerlead wars, worship Trump, and feed you manufactured rage instead of facts.”

Fox didn’t “morph”. It is the same thing it’s always been. Megyn Kelly just now figured it out, but hasn’t yet come to terms with the fact she was an active participant in the fraud.

Kelly knew what it was the whole time, the only difference is that she how can make money by "exposing" it rather than getting paid to be a part of it.
