Jesse Watters accuses Kamala Harris of detonating 'biggest debt bomb in American history'
WASHINGTON, DC: In a recent episode of 'Jesse Watters Primetime', Fox News host Jesse Watters directed sharp criticism at Vice President Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden, attributing the current economic turbulence and recession fears to their policies.
Watters' commentary reflects a growing sentiment among some critics that the Biden administration's approach to economic management has exacerbated market instability and public dissatisfaction.
Jesse Watters blames Kamala Harris for economic crisis
Jesse Watters echoed recent remarks by former President Donald Trump, who asserted that "Stock markets are crashing. Job numbers are terrible. We are headed to World War III, and we have two of the most incompetent leaders in history. This is not good."
Trump framed the current economic situation as a "Kamala-crash," attributing it to Harris's role in economic policy decisions. According to Watters, economists say Harris "detonated the biggest debt bomb in American history" when she cast the tie-breaking vote on the $2 trillion spending bill.
A key point of Watters' critique revolves around the $2 trillion spending bill that Harris helped pass, using her tie-breaking vote in the Senate. Watters argued that this legislation, combined with other administration policies, has led to an unprecedented increase in national debt.
Jesse Watters accuses Biden admin of economic mismanagement
Watters criticized the administration for "raiding the Treasury," handing out corporate welfare, and importing "10 million foreign workers," while declaring a "war on energy" and then "patting themselves on the back." He added, "Two economic illiterate tax and spend puppets gave a chip company, Intel, $8 billion of your money. And right under their noses, Intel said thanks and laid off 15,000 workers."
Watters accused the administration of mismanaging the economy through its stance on energy policies and the importation of foreign workers. He contended that the combination of these factors has placed a significant strain on American workers and contributed to the current financial strain experienced by many households.
Watters warned that the current economic bubble, buoyed by AI investments and Bidenomics, might pop before the upcoming election, leaving Americans in an even more precarious position.
He stated, "This AI bubble, the only thing that's keeping the market afloat, that 'Bidenomics' funded with your tax dollars, could pop before the election. Americans are maxed out on credit cards and are taking on second jobs to keep up, but could soon lose both jobs because of the recklessly corrupt mismanagement of our economy – which will probably end up in another Big Tech bailout, watch."
Jesse Watters questions Kamala Harris's economic expertise
Watters also cast a critical eye on Harris’s role and competence in handling economic issues. He pointed out that Harris has not conducted a major interview since June, questioning,
“A lot has happened since June. And is Kamala even capable of explaining capital markets, labor markets? The global economy?”
Watters referenced the book 'This Will Not Pass', which details how, while President Biden was negotiating with Republicans for $1 trillion in new spending, Harris allegedly piped in with a request for $4 trillion, which Biden dismissed.
Watters implied that such a proposal, if implemented, could have worsened the economic situation further, adding, “Imagine if she had gotten her way. She's never had a job in the private sector and doesn't even know why inflation even happens.”
