Social media users criticized liberal Fox News host Jessica Tarlov over comments she made earlier this year regarding the case brought against former President Donald Trump by New York Attorney General Letitia James. After Tarlov made accusatory remarks about Trump’s business activities, co-hosts Greg Gutfeld and Jesse Watters jumped in to set the record straight.

Tarlov said during the segment, “I think emotion is hot at the table and it is not emanating from me. So since Donald Trump ran the first time, he has been making this argument. If they could do this to me, they could do this to you. The average person is not inflating their wealth by 800 million to $2.2 billion they’re not sexually assaulting women. They’re not storing classified documents in the toilet. They’re not fomenting an insurrection, Mar-a-Lago.”

Gutfeld initially weighed in, explaining to Tarlov the nature of negotiations. “I’ll tell you what I do do, because I’m glad you asked. When you’re in a contract negotiation with a company, let’s say your contract is up, and your company says, We want to renew your contract, and they don’t give you a bump in the raise, that’s the beginning. And then you come back and you go, you know what I’m going to ask for, the freaking Moon, which I always do,” he said.

The co-host continued, “And I know I’m not going to get the moon, but I also know at the end of the day, they’re going to see everything I can say I want $100 million over the next six months, they’re going to laugh, laugh, laugh. But that doesn’t mean I broke the law. It means this is what you put down in a negotiation, and as the judge said, it’s all transparent. They actually see there is no fraud here.”

Following a series of argumentative, heated exchanges, Jesse Watters also opined on the matter, pointing out that Tarlov was seemingly unqualified to speak about nuanced matters such the dynamics of the New York real estate market.  “I was going to say you, obviously, with respect, Jessica, know nothing about real estate, real estate valuations, real estate development, or the IRS or getting loans from big banks to develop skylines in New York City. Donald Trump did more for New York City than 1000 Leticia James has done,” Waters said.

He added, “And if you look at this history of this case, she’s gone after now Cuomo, Donald Trump, the NRA, the NYPD, and she’s done nothing on street crime, nothing on real white collar crime. And then her phony friend, Alvin Bragg, if you just try to defend yourself working at a bodega or on the subway, he goes after you. That’s why 160 businesses have left New York.”

Users on social media reacted to the clip, expressing disagreement with Tarlov’s left-of-center, anti-Trump takes. ” Her lack of discernment, aka thinking, is unnerving…it makes her unwatchable,” one person said.  Another users said, “Theoretically, she is very educated I don’t understand how a person well educated can defend a socialist/communist regime that is destroying our Republic in every aspect She doesn’t want to admit that these regimes have failed loudly last century and killed 150 million people.”
