Fox News’ Gutfeld Rages at ‘Self-Serving Prick’ Biden: ‘Won’t Let Go of the Wheel Even If He Drives the Car Off the Cliff’
Fox News host Greg Gutfeld tore into President Joe Biden in a scathing monologue on the same night as the president’s NATO press conference.
Gutfeld opened his show on Thursday by referencing George Clooney’s much-discussed New York Times op-ed in which he called Biden a friend, but urged the Democratic Party to find a new nominee. The president has faced questions about his health and stamina since last month’s CNN debate with former President Donald Trump.
“The title of the piece? ‘I Love Joe Biden. But We Need a New Nominee,’ which speaks to the Gutfeld rule of getting dumped. Everything before the word ‘but’ means nothing,” Gutfeld joked about Clooney’s piece.
Gutfeld questioned why “everyone” calling for Biden to step down “starts with sentimental accolades about what a wonderful man he is.”
Gutfeld then played a clip of Biden calling “MAGA Republicans” a threat to the “very foundation” of the country, asking, “would a wonderful man say this?”
“See, the dementia just peeled away the facade of empathy, Joe. The lie that he was a kind old man seeking unity. Nope. He was always a self-serving prick who won’t let go of the wheel even if he drives the car off the cliff,” the Fox News host said. “So now, Clooney puts the knife into his old buddy, and instead of blood, there was dust.”
Gutfeld cited others in Hollywood and the media who have expressed concerns about the president, including actor Michael Douglas and NBC News reporter Chuck Todd.
“So they’re abandoning ship like it’s the Titanic and Joe’s the iceberg, but with a lower body temperature. Remember, these are actors who get paid to say what’s written for them,” he said. “They may play heroes, but when it’s time to take a stand in real life, they wait for actual brave people to step forward first. They may get cast as leads in Hollywood, but in real life, they’re extras.”
