Greg Gutfeld says Graham Platner’s tattoo scandal distracts from broader policy agenda

Fox News host Greg Gutfeld asserted on the program "The Five" that two cover‑ups are occurring around Democratic candidate Graham Platner. He described the first as the concealment of a tattoo he says has Nazi associations, noting Platner has offered different explanations depending on his audience. Gutfeld argued the second, larger cover‑up involves Platner’s policy positions, which he claims are being ignored by media outlets such as The New York Times. He warned that focusing on the "prurient" details allows the policies to slip into public view without scrutiny, likening the strategy to a “Trojan horse” similar to past Democratic tactics. Gutfeld also used vivid language, calling Platner a “purple‑haired Antifa screamer.”
