Megan Kelly follows the "if you're old enough to bleed, you're old enough to breed" playbook.

He's not a Pedophile unless he comes from the Pedo region of Epstein Island, otherwise he's just sparkling child molester.

Her child should be removed from her custody.

There's a difference between a 15-year-old and a 5-year-old, you know?

She should not be able to walk down the street without constant reminder of making this statement about victims of sex trafficking. Absolute monster of a person.

It's only paedophilia if it comes from the pedophile region of Alabama. Otherwise it's just sparkling ephebophilia.

Yeah, that seems on brand

Holy shit they're actually doing the hebophile bit

Look at those goalposts go!

It is so predictable that conservatives would end up in "Pedophilia isn't that bad" once it became undeniable that Great Leader raped little girls.

goddamn this fucking talking point is spreading. Just yesterday I was watching a video where some maga piece of shit was questioning a streamer about why he thinks its wrong that adults rape 13 year olds. Pretty soon we're going to have absolutely no choice except physical violence.

Im sorry, is this a conversation about the degree to which he is a pedophile?

She has a 14 year old daughter

If you tell someone not to fuck kids and their response is "actually 15 year olds aren't kids" then that person is a pedo.

If you use the definition of hebephilia or ephebophilia as an argument about anything I'm going to think of you as a pedophile.

Thank God the Right is out here protecting our kids from transpeople. /sarcasm

This is one of the wildest most disgusting goal post moves I've ever heard

Ohh okay so now we’re going with the “they’re mature to marry once they hit puberty” thing Somalia does. I feel real bad for Megyn Kelly’s 14 year old daughter.

What a POS

Lookit that, ephebophile strat went mainstream.

Here it begins. Republicans will want to normalize pedophilia.

These people are sick. Saying this is public should earn a person an automatic 48 hour mental welfare hold.

What are they even defending here. Even if they were 18 year old trafficked women it would be heinous.

It’s not like he was dating young girls or some shit, this is about sex crimes of which their age is only one of the awful awful factors.

Ah, Megyn, glad it's not some guy spouting "old enough to bleed, old enough to breed" like my drunk uncle at Thanksgiving...

The Narcissists Prayer

That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad. <----- We are here
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.

progress at last

Oh, they're going the "explaining the difference between a pedophile, a hebephile, and a ephebophile" route. Let's see if it works out for them.

"This is this person's view, who was there for a lot of this, but that he was into the barely legal type. Like, he liked 15-year-old girls," she continued. "I'm just giving you facts that he wasn't into, like, 8-year-olds. But he liked the very young teen types that could pass for even younger than they were, but would look legal to a passerby."

"And that is what I believed and that is what I reliably was told for many years."

Kelly admitted that she began to change her opinion after Attorney General Pam Bondi claimed that Epstein had thousands of videos with child sexual abuse material.

"For the first time, I thought, oh, no, he was an actual pedophile," the conservative host recalled.

Megan "I was fine with him fucking teenagers" Kelly, everyone.

It's already been pointed out how wrong and gross this is.

But for the sake of discussion let's give her the biggest possible benefit of the doubt.

So then the president of the united states was ONLY a human sex slave trafficker. Super.

unfortunately I think her handlers know that simply planting a seed of doubt will work on many in their audience.

Getting out in front of the Epstein release I see.

Law enforcement baits out pedos to arrest using fake 16 year olds all day long. They can't spin this.

The damage control has started. The bad thing is I can see some people being ok with her statements.

Pedophilia isn't pedophilia?

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

The "um it's ackchually ephebophilia" is spreading to the auth-right!

It's like what critters are or aren't "bugs"

Entomologists usually limit it to Hemiptera, or even a more specific sub-order, while colloquially it just means any terrestrial arthropod

Ants, bees, beetles, and butterflies technically aren't "Bugs", but they're still bugs.

Adults who fantasize about or engage in sex acts with minors above the age of 13 technically aren't "Pedophiles", but they're still pedophiles.

He's a hebephile not a pedophile isn't much of a defence. So he goes after 11+yo children instead of children less than 11yo? Also most people don't know, or rightly care, about the age distinction - both are child abusers.

The age puberty starts has been dropping and it now occurs earlier than ever in recorded history

But I imagine this fact actually appeals to conservatives and republicans

Megyn Kelly is a pedophile and her teen daughter ain't safe with her
