Things once again got heated on Fox News Channel’s “The Five” as conservative co-host Greg Gutfeld clashed with far-left co-host Jessica Tarlov, who was once again ridiculously accusing President Trump of corruption, claiming that his profiting from investments and business activities of the sort that have long made him wealthy is wrong.
Particularly, Gutfeld sounded off on Democrats who have made money in obviously corrupt circumstances, alleging that they are the “party of corruption”. That, in turn, led to Tarlov claiming that President Trump is corrupt because he has made billions of dollars, which sparked a heated feud between her and Gutfeld.
Kicking off that part of the broadcast, Gutfeld insisted that Tarlov had to be willfully blind to not glimpse how corrupt many members of the Democratic Party are, insisting, “Jessica, I can’t believe you don’t know this, they are the party of corruption. We are seeing it now.”
Tarlov pretended not to understand, so Gutfeld started pointing to examples, noting how things like the fraud scandal in Minnesota and the billions of Biden bucks that Stacey Abrams got are major instances of corruption, “Billions and trillions. Trillions of dollars that are being taken out of the government into these fake businesses.”
Then, adding to that by pointing out how absurd much of it is, he said, “You have these weird puppets from Joe Biden to Kamala Harris to mayor– they have no experience, no intellect. They are just here to do whatever– I don’t know what dark forces are running your party, but there is something sick going on, and you need to be aware of it.”
Tarlov snapped back, “Okay, a couple of things. One, the head of your party and the president of the United States–” Gutfeld, entertainingly interrupting and chiming in, said, “Is the greatest president ever.” Tarlov tried to ignore him and instead start complaining about the Trump family, saying, “–of America and his family has made four billion dollars since coming into office. Four billion dollars.”
Gutfeld argued that the difference is that the Trumps are making money in business, whereas Democrats just steal money from taxpayers. He said, “That’s not from– that’s not from me. That’s not being stolen from me.” Tarlov snapped, “Yes it is, actually.”

Gutfeld then told her, “Your party steals from us. Your party steals our tax money. He’s never taken money from me. I’m ok. If he wants to make Bitcoin money, I don’t even know what that is.” They then snapped back and forth at each other a bit, leading to Gutfeld telling her, “He’s not going through my wallet, Jessica. You guys are.”
Tarlov went ballistic, insisting, “That is absolutely not true. And he is using taxpayer money for all of the things that he does. When he flies around and they make backroom deals. When he sends Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff–” Gutfeld then kept pointing out that Democratic corruption is actually corrupt, as instead of making money in business, they just steal our tax dollars, a claim that got Tarlov progressively angrier and angrier.
