Fox News host Greg Gutfeld erupted with dark rhetoric during Thursday's broadcast of "The Five," appearing to advocate for a new American civil war because “elections don’t work” and the nation is in “peril and chaos," the Daily Beast reports.

We had a Democrat president promise that he was going to be moderate, promise that he was gonna unite the country and now we have a terrible education system.

WTF has Trump done to political discourse in America? This guy is doing exactly what Trump does. Say something that sounds like a sentence that's making a point, but if you go back and look at it written down, it's really just noises surrounding keywords.

The only possible link between poor education and Biden uniting the country is if Biden compromised with some Republican who is trying to gut our schools. (I don't know whether he did or not.)

It's Republicans who are working against education. Trump wanted to get rid of the Department of Education. DeSantis got in a war with the AP program over teaching American History, and turned back LGBTQ+ progress for Florida high schoolers 50 years. The Republican party of Texas once published that it was their platform to make sure that children didn't learn critical thinking, because that would interfere with the parents' rights to always choose what is best for their kids.

Over and over, it's Republicans working to harm our education system, and Democrats working to improve it.
