BRIAN KILMEADE (GUEST): So, a couple of things, one of the questions Rachel Maddow has and one of her statements was we have to get to the point where every time we lose an election we say it's, they say it's, illegitimate and doesn't matter. She is actually saying that to Hillary Clinton sitting right across from her, who spent four years saying Donald Trump knows he is an illegitimate president and he didn't really win the election and she sat there and cried about it for four years. And Stacey Abrams is not the governor of Georgia, last time I checked, but she believed she was and people boycotted that state because of it, the movie industry on down.

CHERYL CASONE (FOX BUSINESS ANCHOR): And there's nothing illegal, to your point, about asking questions about an election. That is fair. That happens every election cycle from local to national politics. So, some of the charges that you read through, and again I'm not a lawyer, but when you read through it you think well of course questions were raised, questions were asked, that happens every four years, every two years, I don't see what is illegal about that, I think that's fair game in politics.
