Gutfeld had a great take on this.

Gutfeld on the phony outrage mob- “You’re a Bag of Assholes” Rumble video 2:00

Gutfeld could be great. However. He refuses to listen to his audience and just stop with the disgusting jokes and the obscenities

He will not

Therefore he can never be great

This one in particular was so foul that I stopped recording on all shows that feature him

I guess he’s an acquired taste.

I watch him daily. Since red eye. Tge scatalogical humor is nothing but base

Sophomoric humor is the funniest. Listen in on a group of tenth grade boys at lunch or on the bus and you get a reminder of when SNL was funny. It’s Monty Python hilarious spontaneous.

This is not that.

One acquires taste for scatalogical humor by reducing one’s standards that’s all.

I watched most Red Eye shows too. They were great. However that was entirely a comedic show. Politics really only entered it as a foil for the comedy.

I stopped watching Fox News entirely in May 2016 over their treatment of Trump so now I only see clips of shows like The Five or Gutfeld. I’m amazed at some of the things Gutfeld is allowed to say on air but not offended.

Doesn’t mean I’m particularly impressed either. It just doesn’t matter to me one way or the other.

“I guess he’s an acquired taste.”

You’re arguing with me, defending Gutfeld.

Then

“I stopped watching Fox News entirely “

You’re arguing with no knowledge. Just wasting peoples time. My suggestion, when people roll their eyes at you, believe them btgey truly are annoyed

Ask those who object to Butker’s placing family above career the following question: If you had to choose between giving up your job and giving up your spouse, which would you pick to keep? I think and hope that most would unhesitatingly choose to lose their jobs and keep their spouses. And if you replace “spouses” with “spouses and children,” the preference for family would likely be even more emphatic. Why, then, are Butker’s remarks worthy of scorn?

Of course not. All they need is a trigger to start their insufferable leftwing talking point rants. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHash5takWU

Gutfeld’s show is the best when he has a guest host…I don’t find him funny.

The 10% of the time that he’s funny he’s very funny. He is always funnier than any and all of the other late night

That's a pretty low bar.

WTF? I wasn’t defending Gutfeld or arguing anything at all.

As for wasting people’s time, you began this inane conversation.
