Fox News hosts on The Five called for prosecutors in Donald Trump’s many criminal cases to face the death penalty on Thursday, just as it emerged that the Department of Justice plans to wind down Trump’s federal cases before he takes office

“A lot of the people that were on this and wanted it so badly, how are they going to survive? Do you think they need therapy?” co-host Greg Gutfeld asked

“Yes, they definitely need therapy, and maybe also the death penalty,” co-host Dana Perino responded

“Yes, I think the death penalty,” Gutfeld said

Trump previously said that he’d fire Special Counsel Jack Smith “within two seconds” as president

Smith is prosecuting Trump in two federal cases, one for hoarding classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida and another connected to his alleged attempts at election interference following the 2020 race. The DOJ is set to wind down these cases in compliance with a longstanding department policy that a sitting president can’t be prosecuted

There are currently ongoing state cases against him in New York, for giving hush money to a porn star, and in Georgia for election interference. Trump cannot pardon himself for state crimes
