Jesse Watters labeled moron by Fox News viewers | TV Shows

Jesse Watters confronted backlash after he boasted about the latest airstrikes on Iran ordered by President Donald Trump.

During the Fox News broadcast of Jesse Watters Primetime on July 16, the conservative host reported on President Trump’s struggle against Iran. Trump imposed a naval blockade on all Iranian ports amid his standoff over the Strait of Hormuz, the first export route for oil. Watters, 48, continues to push the narrative that the U.S. is successful the battle against the Middle Eastern nation.

The host appeared to cheer for the new wave of airstrikes amid the naval blockade. This got here after the same host gloated that he could be asking Trump’s Cabinet for “special favors” in a daring assertion.

Watters said, “Fox News alert! Trump is giving Iran the big squeeze. For the first time in the war, we’re launching airstrikes while the blockade is in full effect.

“Plus, sanctions are slapped back. Last time, Trump gave the homosexual ayatollah seven straight hours of b–ch-slap! U.S. precision missiles fired from fighter jets, drones, and warships!

“And this morning, Iran woke up to more bombs! Another hour of pounding. Hitting cruise missile storage. We’re not stopping!” he closed.

Viewers took to social media to slam Watters’ boastful feedback, arguing he was mocking the lives misplaced in the struggle.

One particular person said, “You are a sick moron, Watters! Supporting war criminals for money and following a crooked president into this war!”

Another particular person added, “It is unbelievable how someone like you, Watters, tries to persuade Americans to believe this propaganda! People are dying in this forever war!”

A 3rd wrote, “Haha bozo! You make it sound so good. Tell everyone the cost of missiles, the cost of flying a fighter jet, the cost of those battleships. Is it worth it, Jesse?”

Despite the criticism, Watters still had a supporter who shared, “President Trump, PLEASE keep going with the bombing of Iran! Go all the way through their infrastructure. Completely cripple them! Bring them to their knees!”

Ahead of the printed, the U.S. intensified its strikes against Iran, concentrating on areas additional north of the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran then retaliated with missile and drone fire, concentrating on a quantity of international locations, including Bahrain, Jordan, and Kuwait, before daybreak.

Meanwhile, Tehran focused American allies in the Gulf and vowed the Strait of Hormuz would stay closed “until the U.S. ends its aggression.”

On July 13, President Trump announced the Iranian blockade and wrote on Truth Social, “The Hormuz Strait is OPEN, and will remain OPEN, with or without Iran.

“We are reinstating the IRANIAN BLOCKADE, so named because it’s only stopping Iran’s ships or clients from coming into or leaving. All other international locations could have truthful and open use of the Strait.

“The U.S.A. will be, from this point forward, known as ‘THE GUARDIAN OF THE HORMUZ STRAIT,’ but as such, and as a matter of FAIRNESS, will be reimbursed, at the rate of 20% on all cargo shipped, for any and all costs necessary to do the job of providing safety and security to this very volatile section of the World,” he completed.
