Summary
Fox News host Jesse Watters was buried in mockery on Monday after he claimed that he doesn't like having a president who "struggles to read."Watters, who co-hosts "The Five," was responding to comments California Gov. Gavin Newsom made during a public appearance alongside Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens, both of whom are Democrats. Newsom said he is "just like" the people in the audience because he got a 960 on his SAT test in high school. Some MAGA commentators used the clip to attack Newsom. "I don't want a president who scores poorly," Watters said on Monday. "I don't want a president who struggles to read. I want a really smart president." Observers roasted the Fox News host on social media. "Jesse, you already have one," Newsom replied on X. "Well, that's ironic," retired Navy intelligence officer Travis Akers posted on X. "Who's gonna tell him?" Democratic analyst Adam Mockler posted on X. "Why is he s------ on Trump?" Democratic delegate Christopher Hale posted on X. "The 'President' Jesse wanted, thought 'Nipple' and 'Button' were countries and that the moon was 'part of Mars', but ok," political commentator Jo Carducci posted on X.
