Fox Newsโs Greg Gutfeld was no-holds-barred in his response to the indictment against Donald J. Trump.
โItโs really hard for me to take this seriously. And I donโt think any sensible American should take whatโs happening very seriously, should anger them,โ Gutfeld said. โBut the actual charges you canโt take seriously. Their feelings masquerading as facts, their opinions trying to be passed off as crimes, itโs garbage dressed up with a legal thesaurus.โ
โAnd itโs criminalizing speech. You have every right to think an election might be rigged or fixed. I mean is every institution perfect? I mean what if we criminalize the idea that if you said the justice system was flawed, but if we told you that you know what youโre saying the justice system is rigged, youโre going to jail,โ he continued. โBut thatโs been the common refrain. So I think itโs amazing to me how hatred for Trump has turned the haters into what they claim to condemn.โ
โThese are all the things that they would have accused him of that he never did. This is why I canโt take it seriously. I have a hard time.โ
Trump is now facing more than 80 criminal charges in three separate cases, and hundreds of years in prison. That doesnโt include pending charges out of Georgia with DA Fani Willis, who ran on the โget Trumpโ ticket.
Democrats now say it proves Republicans are the party of criminals, even as the evidence against Joe Biden grows along with the weaponization of the DOJ.
