Jesse Watters blasted for questioning men who go grocery shopping with their wives
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Jesse Watters has faced people’s wrath online after he reportedly made a negative comment about men who go grocery shopping with their wives.
The Fox News host was taking a dig at ex-vice president Kamala Harris and her husband Doug Emhoff, as reported by The Independent.
Harris seemed to have returned to her civilian life in Los Angeles and was spotted grocery shopping with Emhoff in the 99 Ranch Market Asian Grocery store in Westwood, California, on Thursday, January 23.

Jesse Watters makes fun of Kamala Harris and Doug Emhoff
However, Jesse Watters did not seem impressed and asked his viewers, “What kind of husband goes grocery shopping with his wife?” during his Primetime show on Thursday, January 23.
Not only that, he also went on to attack the 60-year-old attorney by adding, “Kamala says she wasn’t going to go quietly, but she’s been as quiet as a mime. Mamala just launched a blog though, and we clicked on it and she wants our email address so she can ask us for money.”
He even asserted, “And she needs it because grocery prices are ridiculous. She just found out about inflation. The New York Post caught her grocery shopping with Dougie Fresh.”

But the political commentator was soon rebuked by many online after an X user tweeted, “The kind that isn’t having an affair with his producer,” referring to his affair with his now-wife Emma DiGiovine while he was married to his first wife Noelle.

Another user asked, “What kind of a stupid question is that?”
“The husbandy kind, the grown man, the equal partner, the man grateful for his wife and family, the provider, the spiritual leader, the respected husband and father...really any husband worth having would go to the grocery store with his wife if she asked and especially if she will be bombarded by press when she goes,” one explained.

“Wait, What? Now a husband going grocery shopping with his wife is an issue? Next what? A husband helping with laundry, cooking, and cleaning will become an issue? Checking calendar. Ok, the year is still 2025. I thought I got teleported to the dark ages,” a person commented.

Watters is annoying. His soup eating and straw using man issues and now this.. he’s hiding behind fake machismo to cover his own perceived masculine inadequacy. Hope Fox replaces him- he’s unwatchable
