Greg Gutfeld did not disappoint when he tore into the Democratic National Committee’s so-called 2024 election autopsy.
While mainstream pundits politely nodded along to the party’s self-analysis, Gutfeld brought his trademark precision and sarcasm to point out the one thing everyone else ignored.
The DNC managed to produce pages of excuses without touching the cultural blind spots that sent millions of voters running the other direction.
On Fox News’ The Five, Gutfeld cracked [1], “People keep asking, why did it take so long to release the autopsy? Well, they were waiting for Kamala’s toxicology report to come back.”
The panel laughed, but his follow-up hit like a hammer.
The report, he noted, was carefully engineered to avoid taking responsibility for anything that might offend the activist class controlling Democratic messaging.
Gutfeld drove the point home, saying, “The ones that mattered were the cultural issues. They weren’t brought up here, and they weren’t mentioned, especially trans, because they haven’t changed their positions on them.”
His conclusion was simple, if you refuse to admit there is a problem, you have no hope of fixing it.
In classic Gutfeld style, he connected the DNC’s inability to face reality with a larger truth about left-wing politics.
The party’s identity is so bound up in constant social experimentation that anything resembling self-reflection is now treated as betrayal.
Rather than change direction on the social extremism that has alienated working-class and centrist voters, Democrats prefer to blame the usual boogeymen, from Donald Trump to “disinformation.”
The Fox host reminded viewers that this problem did not appear overnight.
He recalled covering transgender issues in the early 2010s, back when the debates centered around bathrooms.
He said his motivation was never about a handful of individuals but about the authoritarian tactics used to shut down disagreement.
“I targeted this for a very important reason, because I saw the intimidation, the tactics that would occur when it happened,” Gutfeld said.
His warning all those years ago came true: a movement convinced it could redefine biology got used to redefining everything else as well.
That, in Gutfeld’s view, was the deeper significance of the trans debate.
It was a test case for how far cultural relativism could spread.
When truth becomes optional, power becomes the only standard left standing.
“Why was the trans issue so important to challenge?” he asked rhetorically.
“Because it diagnosed, and it exploited the fatal flaw of cultural relativism. That’s the unlocked door where any idea that is detached from truth could enter.”
Once that door was opened, he said, all logic started leaking out of American discourse.
One absurd idea after another marched through, from “trans women are women” to people insisting that age, health, or even species could be reclassified on demand.
His examples were intentionally ridiculous, but his argument made a lethal point.
“It just so happened that it was trans, but it didn’t have to be,” he said.
“60 year olds are now 40. A morbidly obese person is now fit. Horses are people. Cantaloupes could have rights.”
That was Gutfeld’s way of showing what the Democrats’ cultural obsession has unleashed.
Once a party surrenders the concept of objective truth, it becomes impossible to define reality without first consulting the outrage mob.
For the DNC, this makes self-correction politically suicidal. The loudest activists would rather lose elections than admit they have turned normal Americans against them.
The autopsy, in that sense, was not really an autopsy at all. It was a press release dressed up as analysis, designed to calm donors and preserve a broken narrative.
The document, by Gutfeld’s estimation, was one long exercise in finger pointing that kept the ideological walls intact.
Instead of reckoning with cultural extremism, the report doubled down on anti-Trump rhetoric, voter suppression myths, and claims about election interference.
Gutfeld described it as a “flex of the unravelers,” the kind of intellectual game played by elites who enjoy dismantling standards just to prove they can.
It was, he said, the logical consequence of decades of progressive thought that treats truth as subjective and moral conviction as oppressive.
In the end, Gutfeld’s analysis was far more insightful than the DNC’s expensive spin operation.
Democrats, he said, already know the truth but cannot say it out loud.
They lost because they abandoned common sense.
They lost because Americans have grown tired of being told they must comply with absurdity.
Until the left learns that lesson, every “autopsy” they publish will just repeat the same delusion, wrapped in new political packaging.
WATCH:
For conservatives, it was refreshing to see someone on mainstream television cut through the DNC fog with humor and bite.
Gutfeld turned a sterile internal memo into a cultural moment that reminded viewers why honesty still matters in politics.
The DNC might want to take notes, but given their track record, they will probably just commission another report to explain why their next loss was someone else’s fault.
