Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly has declared the MAGA movement has collapsed into an increasingly negligible faction—a group defined solely by its allegiance to Mark Levin. Speaking on her “Hodgetwins Podcast,” Kelly stated, “MAGA is not what it was. MAGA is now this very, very small group of Trump diehard loyalists who have to love Mark Levin.”
Kelly further emphasized the movement’s dramatic shrinkage: “It’s a small group. So, I guess I’ve been surprised to see how quickly it’s shrunk down to something less formidable, by far, than it used to be.” Her remarks followed recent criticism of Trump supporters who backed the U.S.-led conflict in Iran despite his 2016 campaign pledge to avoid another overseas war.
“That was not a small thing,” Kelly said during the interview. “That was a massive part of his campaigning and his promising… Those people, on a dime, were like, ‘Yes, we’re pro-war with Iran. Yes, Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.’”
Kelly admitted she has never been an unreserved Trump supporter but acknowledged her recent shift in tone as notable. Her comments directly referenced her ongoing feud with radio host Mark Levin, whom she has frequently criticized through what she described as “childish taunts and name-calling.”
Additionally, Kelly blamed the “Israel lobby” for Republican Congressman Thomas Massie’s defeat in Kentucky’s primary, stating that Jewish billionaires like Miriam Adelson and AIPAC orchestrated ad campaigns portraying Massie as a “sex pest” who opposed Trump. “I think it was the Israel lobby that got Thomas Massie defeated,” she said. “And it’s not American Jews—I’m with the neocons on the protection of American Jews.”
