Jesse Watters’ sexist rant over ‘White Dudes for Harris’ baffles his Fox News panel

Fox News host Jesse Watters went on a tangent about the recent White Dudes for Harris call, suggesting that men who vote for a woman candidate based on her gender are “childish”, have “mommy issues” or are only “trying to be accepted by other women” – much to the surprise of his co-hosts.

On Tuesday’s episode of The Five, Watters criticized the recent Zoom call made up of thousands of white men, including celebrities and lawmakers, calling it a “struggle session for pale, hairy, flabby California artists.” Watters heavily mocked The White Dudes for Harris fundraiser, which took place on Monday. He jokingly suggested the white men who support Democratic campaigns are not doing so for policy reasons but instead trying appease women.

“It was basically saying ‘If you want to be accepted by women you should vote for a woman’,” Watters said.

The Fox News host went a step further, satirically hypothesizing why the men on the Zoom call were supporting Harris’s presidential campaign.

“To be a man and then vote for a woman just because she’s a woman is either childish, that person has mommy issues or they’re just trying to be accepted by other women,” Watters said.

Co-host Dana Perino interjected, “What?” before Watters continued.

“And I heard the scientists say the other day when a man votes for a woman he actually transitions into a woman,” Watters said sarcastically.

Perino retorted back in the same tone, “Oh is that right?”

The White Dudes for Harris fundraiser was organized by men who want to break the mold of their demographic’s traditional voting patterns. Actors Mark Ruffalo, Josh Gad, Mark Hamill and Jeff Bridges joined lawmakers like Pete Buttigieg and North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper on the call to help raise money
