Fox News’ “The Five” recently sparked a heated exchange when co-host Dana Perino posed a question that triggered a political firestorm.

The discussion was centered around Vice President Kamala Harris and comments made by California Rep. Nancy Pelosi, who once again used the Democrats’ favorite pastime: bashing Trump and his supporters, as reported by BPR.

Perino asked if Harris would ever call Trump “selfish,” setting off a lively back-and-forth between the panelists.

Jessica Tarlov, the show’s resident liberal, wasted no time in her predictable response: “For sure. Because Trump is selfish.”

Tarlov continued with the typical talking points, listing accusations about Trump’s personal life and business dealings. The left’s script hasn’t changed much—attack, smear, and recycle the same accusations they’ve used for years.

But co-host Greg Gutfeld quickly shot back with his signature sarcasm, saying, “He just got shot, running for president! Boy, that’s selfish! He almost died for this job!”

Tarlov, however, wasn’t deterred, rambling on about court cases and how Trump supposedly “stiffed everyone” and “cheated” on his wives, as if this were some groundbreaking revelation.

As if parroting Pelosi’s latest jab, Tarlov continued by claiming, “It’s all about the self with Donald Trump, and he preys upon people who believe this toxicity.” She then circled back to Pelosi’s infamous “basket of deplorables” argument, implying that Republicans are all guilty of being “racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic,” and the list goes on.

Just more liberal accusations—same smear, different day.

At this point, Judge Jeanine Pirro had had enough. She cut through the nonsense with a fiery rebuke, stating, “You hate them personally, and the Democrats hate Republicans!” Pirro reminded the panel and viewers that Democrats have consistently treated Republicans like outcasts, especially since Trump’s election. “The Democrats are the party of hate!” Pirro declared, calling out the left for pushing lies about Trump being a Russian puppet and using the courts to spy on him.

Pirro didn’t stop there. She defended Trump’s character, stating, “Donald Trump is one of the most generous people you’ll ever meet… If he were selfish, he’d take his money and tell all of us to go ‘F’ ourselves based upon the way this country has treated him.” Pirro’s powerful defense resonated with conservatives across social media, who praised her for calling out the left’s constant hypocrisy and smear tactics.

Tarlov, still grasping at straws, tried to throw one last jab by bringing up Trump’s comments about Jewish voters. But Pirro shut it down with a simple fact: “Donald Trump is the only one who moved the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.”
