Jesse Watters Drops BOMBSHELL on 2024 Race!

Fox News host Jesse Watters provided insights into the brewing contest between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. During his show “Jesse Watters Primetime,” Watters highlighted the dynamics that are shaping up as the race heats up.

Watters opened his segment by acknowledging Harris’s appeal as a female candidate, particularly among certain demographics. “Kamala is not Joe Biden and yes she has a woman and there’s excitement around that. You should see my mom. Suddenly she’s a Kamala fanatic. Keeps talking about joy,” he remarked, illustrating the enthusiasm some voters may have for Harris. However, Watters quickly turned the focus to Trump’s ability to rally his base and challenge Harris’s position.

The Fox News host was quick to remind viewers of Trump’s past success in preventing Hillary Clinton from reaching the White House, suggesting that he could do the same against Harris. “Trump kept one woman out of the White House and he can do it again. This country is thirsty for leadership after four years of joked hideaway Harris isn’t going to fly and only so much bamboo sling voters can tolerate,” Watters stated. His comment underscores the dissatisfaction among some voters with the current administration and their readiness for change.

Watters didn’t hold back in criticizing Harris’s approach to the media, pointing out her lack of recent press interactions. “Kamala Harris hasn’t held a press conference since 2023 and that wasn’t even in America. It was in Dubai,” he noted, emphasizing the vice president’s limited engagement with the press. In contrast, Watters praised Trump’s willingness to engage directly with the media, suggesting that this is what democracy should look like. “Trump got the gang back together and this is what democracy looks like,” he said, painting a picture of a more open and transparent political process under Trump’s leadership.

Freedom of the press and the exchange of ideas without censorship were central themes in Watters’s argument. He asserted that the media’s relationship with Trump was marked by tension and challenge, something he views as healthy for democracy. “The media missus Trump. The relationship between the press and the politicians is supposed to be tense and challenging. With Biden and Kamala it’s flaccid and corrupt. Everybody knows it,” Watters declared, drawing a sharp contrast between the current administration and what he perceives as the more dynamic Trump era.

The conversation surrounding debates between Harris and Trump has also intensified. Harris has indicated that she will not participate in a Fox News debate against Trump on September 4 but may engage in other debates if Trump shows up for the ABC News debate on September 10. This decision has sparked controversy, as many see it as a strategic move by Harris’s campaign.

Trump, on the other hand, has proposed multiple debates, including those on Fox News and NBC, in addition to the ABC debate. “I think it’s very important to have debates,” Trump told reporters, underscoring his commitment to direct engagement with voters and his opponents. His call for debates reflects his belief that voters deserve to see a head-to-head discussion on the key issues facing the nation.

Harris’s team has left the door open for more debates, contingent on Trump’s participation in the September 10 debate. According to ABC News senior White House correspondent Selina Wang, Harris is not opposed to additional debates, but their occurrence hinges on Trump’s attendance.

The debate over debates is not the only challenge Harris faces. Long-time Democratic strategist James Carville recently criticized Harris for aligning too closely with the far-left wing of the Democratic Party. Carville’s remarks come as Harris selected Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate, a decision that has drawn criticism from conservatives due to Walz’s handling of the George Floyd-inspired riots in Minneapolis in 2020.

.@VP Harris will not agree to the September 4th Fox debate, campaign official tells me. Says future debates are contingent on Trump showing up to @ABC debate on Sept 10th
Willing to have convos before Sept 10 about debates after that date
So ABC will have 1st Harris/Trump debate

Carville’s sharp critique of the far-left’s influence on the Democratic Party highlights the internal tensions within Harris’s campaign. “Anybody that has ever listened to anything that the progressive left has ever said has lived to profoundly regret it. Literally on every issue, they’re dead a– wrong,” Carville said, expressing his frustration with the party’s direction. His comments serve as a warning to Harris as she navigates the complexities of the upcoming election.

As Harris attempts to moderate her positions and distance herself from the far-left, she faces the challenge of balancing her past stances with the need to appeal to a broader electorate. Fox News reported that Harris had previously opposed fracking, supported Defund the Police initiatives, and advocated for the legalization of marijuana—stances that could be liabilities in a general election.

In the coming months, the 2024 presidential race will undoubtedly continue to evolve, with both Harris and Trump facing significant challenges. As the debates and campaign strategies unfold, voters will be watching closely to see who emerges as the leader capable of addressing the nation’s pressing issues.
