NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Fox News host Jesse Watters commented on Monday (January 15) night that the Iowa caucuses would play a significant role in shaping the political landscape for former President Donald Trump, suggesting that the outcomes would influence decisions related to political appointments and dismissals.

Following his take, Watters took to X, formerly known as Twitter to share his monologue with his followers.

As Watters argued that the future of the Republican party will determine the future of the United States, several people on the internet shared their opinions.

Jesse Watters claims Iowa caucuses will determine Donald Trump's furture

Fox News anchor Jesse Watters took to X and wrote, “Iowa Republicans agree on one thing: they want radical change in Washington.

Politicians work for us and this isn't Joe Biden's house- it's the people's house. This evening, the hiring and firing begins. Whatever happens tonight- the future of the US will be determined by the future of the Republican party.”



 

In his monologue, Watters said, “This evening, the hiring and firing begins for Donald Trump. A big quick win tonight asserts dominance.”

“It creates an air of invincibility and an inevitability that will force his primary opponents to consider dropping out earlier than planned and coalescing around him and sparing the party an expensive, dragged out primary so the GOP is fresh and united when it faces off against Biden.”

He continued, “For Ron DeSantis, it's second place or bust. The governor almost lived in Iowa. He's been to every county, spent a lot of money and secured big endorsements. This is his first test.”

Watters further explained, “For Nikki Haley, a second place would rocket her to New Hampshire, where she's polling well. The last poll in Iowa shows her with momentum, but a chunk of her supporters are Democrats, and she just doesn't jive with the populist wing of the party.”

He concluded, “For Vivek Ramaswamy, a political virgin, can he punch above his weight? He's attractive to the young MAGA wing of the party, but he could run out of money sooner than any of his rivals.”

“And whatever happens tonight, the future of the United States will be determined by the future of the Republican Party. Can the Republican Party get it together and come together?" Watters asked.
