GREG KELLY (HOST): All right, back to that social media situation. Depriving Donald Trump of social media is a crime. It has to be. I remember, what, two or three years ago, it was considered illegal for the White House to block followers on Twitter who wrote hostile comments. If that was illegal, it's got to be illegal to keep him off of Twitter. I don't like it. If it's not illegal, it's fundamentally wrong.

Consider this. The Wright brothers. They invented the airplane, okay? Can you imagine if only one company made airplanes and they decided who could fly and who couldn't based on whether they agreed with you politically? I mean, that's kind of the situation we have, keeping Donald Trump, the greatest social media warrior ever off of social media. It's totally ridiculous.
