Megyn Kelly insists to Bill Maher that Hillary Clinton is ‘the first election denier’

Bill Maher and Megyn Kelly argued Election denialism in the 2024 presidential contest — former Fox News host called Hillary Clinton “the real election denier.”

The two first discussed the current race, with both agreeing that Republican candidate Donald Trump would likely receive a negative backlash if he lost the race for the White House.

“He’s either going to say, ‘It was rigged,’ or he’s going to say, ‘It was the perfect, most beautiful choice ever,'” Maher said in an interview with Kelly on his show “Real Time.”

“That’s true,” Kelly said before confirming that he would still support Trump.

When Maher asked why he supported her even though he agreed, he replied, “Don’t think there won’t be denial if Kamala Harris loses.”

“They are already laying the foundation for legal fees. “No matter who wins, we’re going to be stuck in this election for weeks, one way or another,” Kelly insisted.

Maher didn’t take kindly to the comparison.

“He is not an election denier,” Maher insisted. “This is different. He grumbles. Yes, they grumble when they shouldn’t and maybe that’s overstepping the mark. There’s a difference between grumbling about something and trying to turn it around like he did. I mean, you know this. Why do we have to go through this?”

The two found more common ground when addressing the issue of gender transition therapy for children, and both agreed that medically unnecessary surgeries were being performed on young children.

“We’re cutting off healthy body parts of young children,” Kelly said, prompting groans from the audience.

“Oh, we’re doing that 100 percent,” Maher responded.
