Fox News host Jesse Watters has exposed why he believes Democrats and Republicans who despise former President Donald Trump have such contempt for the man.
His argument is that because so many in Washington go along with the status quo anyone who actually gets things accomplished, to them, is a dictator.
“Anyone who gets things done in Washington has to be a dictator. We’re so used to empty promises that the idea that a politician could get elected and deliver the policies that people voted for quickly and efficiently is so foreign that anyone who promises real change on day one has to be a strong man. They sound terrified that Trump might secure the border, stop crime and drill. Now if you believe that you want to put America first, you’re a Nazi, according to them,” the Fox News host said.
“If you want America not first, you’re a patriot. See, they’re conditioning us to be ashamed of making our country great. Only the Nazis wanted a great country, I guess,” he said.

This month Watter said he believes that former first lady Michelle Obama is an option for Democrats to replace President Joe Biden as the Democrat presidential nominee in 2024.
Watters was responding to comments that Obama made on Jay Shetty’s “On Purpose” podcast after the host asked what keeps her up at night.
“What keeps me up are the things that I know: The war in the region, in too many regions. What is AI going to do for us? The environment, you know, are we moving at all fast enough?” she began.
“What are we doing about education? Are people going to vote? And why aren’t people voting? Are we too stuck to our phones? I mean, these are the things that keep me up because you don’t have control over them, and you wonder, where are people, where are we in this, where are our hearts? What’s going to happen in this next election?” she continued.
“I am terrified about what could possibly happen. Because our leaders matter. Who we select, who speaks for us, who holds that bully pulpit. It affects us in ways that, sometimes, I think people take it for granted,” she added. “You know, the fact that people think that government — ‘eh, does it really even do anything?’ — And I’m like, oh my God, does government do everything for us, and we cannot take this democracy for granted. And sometimes, I worry that we do. Those are the things that keep me up.”
Watters said that it appears the former first lady wants to be considered as a potential replacement for Biden.
“I think it’s a hostile takeover because there is no Biden campaign,” Watters said. “It doesn’t exist. There’s barely any staff. He doesn’t go anywhere. He doesn’t go anywhere, Jessica [Tarlov]. And I think the Obamas are flabbergasted that Joe keeps saying, ‘we’ve got this,’ when he clearly doesn’t have this,” Watters said.
“The guy got so lucky. You only won because last time because of a once-in-a-100-year pandemic, and then Big Intel election interference is the only way he got to the White House,” he added.
“So I heard Michelle Obama do an hour-long podcast yesterday,” Watters continued. “And she’s talking about Gaza, she’s talking about the border, she’s talking about what keeps her up at night. This may be even her saying, ‘Look, I’m option two’ if the convention rolls around and Joe hits his head again. I’m not saying it’s going to happen, but she is putting herself out there, as they say,” he said.
