Greg Gutfeld spoke at AmFest 2025 on Saturday with his great sense of humor.
He explained that those who resented President Trump revealed something about who they were.
“You look at why people resent Donald Trump. I’ve been thinking about this for a long time because I had the same issues in 2016 and 2015, and I knew Trump,” Gutfeld said.
“Why do people resent anything? It’s because they play a role somehow in the resentment, and they have yet to confront themselves over it,” Gutfeld explained.
“So, you know, when you are mad at somebody, and you don’t know why, a lot of times it has to do with exposing something about you,” Gutfeld continued.
“When Donald Trump came up, and you had all of these people that were friends with him, he exposed something about them that they didn’t want to know,” Gutfeld explained.
Gutfeld used “Never Trumpers” as an example and explained that the resentment came from knowing that they were not the main voice of conservative ideology anymore.
“I’m gonna use the never Trumper conservatives. Why were they the most extreme in their dislike for Trump? Because he exposed to them that they actually were not the voice of conservatism, and that upset them,” Gutfeld said.
“Why is his success bothering me? Honestly, you can do this with every person in your life on a personal level. What kind of resentment do you hold and what’s your role in it?” Gutfeld explained in his approach to looking at resentment against Trump.
“For years, I was going after the politically correct and I was saying all these things, and he came in, and just blew it up. And that should have been me!” Gutfeld continued in his explanation.
“That is behind all of the resentment about Trump in the entertainment industry and in the world of politics,” Gutfeld said.
“Here is the way I look at late night talk shows. Imagine this amazing high school. Tens of thousands of people and there is one cool table off on the side,” Gutfeld said.
“You come in, and they invite you to that table, and you go, I’m good. I’m going out with these people. That created a crisis and confidence in those people when they suddenly realized that their views are not held by everybody else,” Gutfeld said.
“They realized that sitting at that table, they were talking to themselves, and nobody cares,” Gutfeld continued.
