Greg Gutfeld Schools Liberal Co-Host on Trump’s First 24 Hours [WATCH]

Fox News co-host Greg Gutfeld delivered a fiery response to Jessica Tarlov during a recent segment of The Five, addressing criticisms of President Donald Trump’s flurry of executive orders in his first days back in office.

The exchange highlighted sharp divides over Trump’s policies, ranging from immigration reform to federal workforce changes, and Gutfeld did not hold back in his critique of liberal narratives.

The conversation turned heated when Tarlov questioned Trump’s position on birthright citizenship, a policy Trump has pledged to reform through executive action.

Gutfeld responded by pointing out the American voter’s dissatisfaction with policies perceived as overly accommodating to illegal immigration.

“You don’t need to like everything in a restaurant to like the establishment,” Gutfeld said, likening Trump’s policies to a broader menu of choices.

“That’s the typical authoritarian tendency of the Left—you must like or comply with everything they say, including candidates. Trump is the closest to what the American voter wanted—so deal with it.”

Gutfeld argued that voters had grown weary of left-wing policies on issues such as Title IX, asylum seekers, and birthright citizenship.

He praised Trump’s rapid implementation of executive orders, describing them as necessary steps to reverse the direction of the previous administration.

“Trump is moving at lightning speed to get this nation back on track,” he said.

The discussion shifted to Trump’s decision to require federal employees to return to in-office work, a policy that has sparked criticism among some government workers.

Gutfeld dismissed their complaints, emphasizing that government employees are not exempt from the responsibilities faced by other working Americans.

“No one cares about government workers. No one cares about their difficulties or hardships because they must go into the office,” Gutfeld stated.

“If you don’t like it, quit. You won’t be missed.”

The statement reflects Trump’s broader push to restore pre-pandemic workplace norms and increase accountability within the federal workforce.

Gutfeld also took aim at the media, accusing them of perpetuating false narratives to undermine Trump and his supporters.

He referenced a baseless claim that Elon Musk performed a Nazi salute at Trump’s inaugural rally, a story that gained traction in some outlets before being debunked.

“They know they’re lying about Elon Musk doing a Nazi salute at the inaugural rally,” Gutfeld said.

“They know, but they also can’t do anything to revive their credibility, so spreading fake news is all they have.”

Gutfeld summed up his criticism with a vivid analogy: “The media is a fat man on death row—what’s the point in dieting?”

The heated exchange between Gutfeld and Tarlov highlights ongoing debates over Trump’s policies and the media’s role in shaping public perception.

With the new administration moving quickly to implement its agenda, these clashes are likely to continue as the country navigates a significant political shift.

Gutfeld’s remarks echo the growing divide between conservative and liberal viewpoints on key issues, from immigration reform to the federal workforce and media accountability.
