Fox News host Jesse Watters attempted to explain himself on Tuesday after he
received backlash for a comment he made one night earlier about Vice President
Kamala Harris.

During a discussion on the talk show “The Five” about Harris’s role in the
withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan in summer 2021, Watters appeared to
use crude language to speculate on how a President Harris would handle foreign
policy.
