LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: With the specter of the 2024 presidential election looming large, voices from all sides are weighing in on what it will take for the American people to have faith in the electoral process.

Among those voices is Greg Gutfeld, a prominent conservative commentator and host, who has stirred controversy with his recent comments regarding the potential outcome of the 2024 election.

Greg Gutfeld's challenge to democratic strategy

During a segment on his show, Gutfeld raised pointed questions about the credibility of the election, suggesting that the only scenario in which the American people would believe the outcome is legitimate is if Donald Trump emerges victorious.

"This is what I don't understand. If you actually believe that Trump is this existential threat, right, the most consequential vote in our history is coming up, why are you running a feeble ghost of a candidate? Why would you treat this election so lightly that you put forth the weakest candidate in American history?"

He added, "If you believe Trump's a moral evil, you're abandoning your moral imperative to put out a real candidate. I'm not even saying a good candidate, I'm saying a real candidate."

Gutfeld's questions unveil doubts and skepticism about election dynamics

His remarks have sparked debate and scrutiny, shedding light on broader issues surrounding trust in democracy and the conduct of political campaigns.



 

"Which makes anyone with a brain wonder, if they aren't that worried that Joe's going to lose, given his sorry state, what are they planning? What are they doing to save the day? What is up the Dems' sleeve to drag that body back into the White House? What's the dog that's not barking?"

He continued, "And then let's say, by some weird, miraculous chance that we didn't see coming, given that Trump is ahead, has a 66% chance of winning, looks like he's going to get the electoral count, and he -- Joe still wins, well then, what do you do after you win? How do you convince anyone that's real? Have they even thought of that? Like, even the Dems behind the scenes better hope he doesn't win because no one's going to believe it."
