Megyn Kelly is joined by Kmele Foster, Michael Moynihan, and Matt Welch, hosts of “The Fifth Column,” to discuss Trump’s clash with Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, her refusal to step down after mortgage fraud allegations, whether Trump can really fire her and whether she will actually leave.:

KMELE FOSTER, ‘FIFTH COLUMN’ PODCAST: I’m not acknowledging that I haven’t engaged in any sort of mortgage fraud, to my knowledge. I’ve always been truthful on my mortgage loan applications. I’m just saying in general, I don’t like the specter of these kinds of things being politicized. I think we’re better off as a country when people can indifferently, perhaps, look at these prosecutions and say, you know what, I have some trust and confidence that people are going to pursue these cases in an aboveboard, legitimate manner. MEGYN KELLY: That’s what I want. That’s what I’m advocating. My own view is the only way back to that norm is to make them suffer. They must have skin in the game. We cannot take the high road and get out of this. We tried that. We didn’t prosecute Hillary Clinton, though it’s looking more and more everyday like we should have. Trump tried to go high road in 1.0. They ruined his first term and then they tried to lock him up for four years and bankrupt him. And now they must suffer. They must suffer. Or we’re just going to go through this again, but only with Republicans. So I think, really, you have to take the nose and rub it in the crap in order for these people to learn that it’s a really unfortunate, unpleasant process. Don’t do this. Don’t do this again. And not to find somebody who didn’t commit a crime and go after them. That would be very, very wrong. But if I kick Bill Pulte, you know, kicks the tires on your car and he finds mortgage fraud rolling away, you’re going to be in a lot of trouble. Sorry.
