Greg Gutfeld says it’s “fair” to blame DEI for anything that goes wrong

Gutfeld: “It can be used to explain everything, you know, except, unlike racism and climate change, which the left found under every rock, every issue, DEI is, indeed, under every rock”

GREG GUTFELD (CO-HOST): In a way, DEI is the mirror to the Democrats' argument with racism or climate change. It can be used to explain everything, you know, except, unlike racism and climate change, which the left found under every rock, every issue, DEI is, indeed, under every rock because the Democrats put it there. 

In fact, you boasted about it, so it's nobody's fault if they're suspicious that it might do damage because we were told how great it was and then we learned that it was discriminatory. And it's not our fault to wonder, is this playing a role in a lot of the problems that we were seeing in -- whether it was airplane parts or anything or the entertainment industry. We saw problems, and we're going like, well, this seems to be everywhere. We were told that. 

So I think the suspicion is fair. It may not be right. This could have been human error. This could have been a malfunction, but the suspicion is always going to be there because it was placed there by your clan, your evil clan.
