JESSE WATTER (HOST): Do they want to get handcuffed and mugshot? Is that the deal because they think their popularity's going to spike the way Trump's did? And then they can say, "I told you, I told you he's a king, he's arresting politicians," even though they arrested Trump.
KAYLEIGH MCENANY (GUEST): I really think there is something to that and I know that sounds crazy and outlandish but when Tom Homan mentioned the arrest and potentially officials, how quickly did Gavin Newsom say bring it on, guys? And then you watch them in front of Congress, one by one, bring it on, bring it on, bring it on. They all want that mugshot, but here's the thing, Jesse, they can't get a mugshot like President Trump, the way he looked in the mirror and it's become so iconic. I don't think any one of those could pull off the handsome mugshot that President Trump did.
WATTERS: Maybe Gavin Newsom but it would take quite a bit of hair and makeup.
