Fox News host Greg Gutfeld slammed former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for joking about America reportedly becoming the country with the most confirmed coronavirus cases.
On Friday, Clinton tweeted President Trump did “promise ‘America First,'” jokingly blaming Trump for the spread of COVID-19 in the United States.

In response, Gutfeld said he would tell Clinton to “rot in hell” if she were not “already there.”
“I can’t believe I’m going to say, there are no words for Hillary Clinton,” Gutfeld began.
“She’s not only stole this joke, it’s not even a good joke, and the joke is based on the suffering of others. I would say she should rot in hell, but I think she’s already there.”
“When you look at people suffering — by the way the infection rates are increasing because we are testing more. And these are people that really wanted more testing, so you’re naturally going to see more infection rates. But, if you see that as an opportunity to direct attention to yourself on social media, you are what scientists would call a scumbag, and you are somebody that we will not forget.”
Gutfeld surmised that, once the public health emergency caused by the coronavirus is addressed, Clinton would be remembered as a “villain.”
“When this is all over and done with, she’s going to fall on the villain side. And I’m not going to forget it,” Gutfeld concluded.
