Fox’s Gutfeld: Trump Called Clinton a Bigot to Co-Opt the Tactics of the Left

Fox News’ Greg Gutfeld said that by calling Hillary Clinton a bigot, Donald Trump is using Democrats’ own tactics against them.

Accusations of racism against Republicans have been pervasive on the left for years, though Trump’s dog-whistles and the embrace of Trump in some racist corners have certainly provided lots and lots of ammunition for the Hillary Clinton campaign.

But Gutfeld said that Trump, by using the “bigot” attack,” is “actually playing their game” and he’s “fighting the same way the left fights.”

And the fact that the media is flipping out about Trump doing it proves to Gutfeld that there’s a lot of gross media hypocrisy going on.
