Fox News Host Bluntly Cuts Down Jeanine Pirro’s Hypocritical Gripe In 6 Words

Fox News’ Jeanine Pirro expressed concerns about how Democrats might react if Donald Trump wins the election, and her liberal co-host Jessica Tarlov was quick to point out the hypocrisy.
During a segment on “The Five” about Americans’ election anxiety, Pirro said she’s “excited” for the vote, but “what I’m concerned about, in terms of stress, is the left’s reaction if Donald Trump gets elected.”
“I would like, if Donald Trump wins — and I’m hoping he wins — I would like that people just be calm and accept it,” she added.
Tarlov shot back, “January 6th would like a word,” and wrapped up the segment.

Many Americans are anxious about next week’s election in part because the last one led to a violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
Spurred by Trump’s lies that the 2020 vote was rigged, a mob of his supporters ransacked the halls of Congress in an attempt to overturn the results.
In the four years since, Trump and many of his supporters and allies have continued to push that lie incessantly. The Republican nominee has already laid the groundwork to claim the 2024 vote is fraudulent should he lose to Vice President Kamala Harris, sparking concerns of more political violence.
The former president has declined to commit to accepting the results of the election or to rule out the possibility of political violence if he loses.
