Megyn Kelly’s latest clash with Ben Shapiro didn’t just ignite another media feud—it exposed a deeper fracture inside today’s conservative movement. Her reflexive defense of Tucker Carlson and her willingness to indulge conspiratorial narratives reflect a broader identity crisis gripping the GOP, where principle is often sacrificed for clicks, outrage, and factional loyalty. As internal conflicts over bigotry, antisemitism, and the movement’s moral direction intensify, Kelly’s commentary has become a symbol of how far the conservative base has drifted from the values it claims to defend.
