NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: On a recent episode of his show 'Jesse Watters Primetime', Fox News host Jesse Watters interviewed a "psychic" who shared a prophecy that could spell trouble for former president Donald Trump.

The tarot card reader also shared some insights into President Joe Biden’s future and about the host himself.

Watters took to X, formerly Twitter, to share his conversation with the tarot reader and what she had to say about Biden and Trump.

However, the Internet did not respond positively to Watters’ take as several X users blasted the host for reporting “nonsense".

Jesse Watters talks with psychic to predict Trump's future

Fox News host Jesse Watters took to X and wrote, “A psychic tells Primetime her 2024 tarot card reading predictions. She sees loss in Trump's future, lots of cash in Biden's future, a baby in my future and a lot of happiness for America.”



 

In his take, he said, “I’ve always feared fortune tellers. We could be tempting fate. But at a dinner party, I was given a delightful reading. And when I asked her about Trump, she said there’d be a grave injustice this fall and we may not even have an election. Therefore, we needed a second opinion.”

He then welcomed Paula Roberts, an “English psychic”, to offer her reading for Donald Trump.

Unfortunately, she shared a negative prophecy for Trump.

Watters asked Roberts, “I would like, Paula, for you to give me a reading on President Trump.”

Roberts had a pack of cards in front of her. She said, “Just the one card”, to which Watters agreed.

She flipped one card over and exclaimed, “Uh oh. Uh oh,” as Watters abruptly chimed in, “What is that?”

Roberts explained, “I mean, I do recognize that I’m at Fox TV. A sense of loss. A sense of loss, but it’s very specific.”

“No, no, no, let me move on. It’s a sense of loss. It’s as if he may be thinking more about what he’s lost, and not still taking full advantage of what he still has.”

The host added, “That’s a great interpretation,” and the psychic replied, “It’s true. It’s true. I mean, I don’t make it up.”

Watters then asked Roberts to predict Joe Biden's future. He said, "What will his year look like?”

Roberts again flipped one card and said, “Lots and lots and lots and lots of money.”

“From China?” Watters asked with a hilarious laugh as he referred to Republican allegations that Biden was involved in his son, Hunter’s business dealings with China.

To this, Roberts replied, “Oh, you are cheeky. I didn’t say from where.”

Jesse Watters slammed for reporting ‘nonsense’

Many X users took a brutal jab at Jesse Watters after he brought a psychic to predict Donald Trump’s future.

One person wrote, “You’re becoming very flat,” and another said, ‘Bro....between the childish, time-wasting movie clips & psychics it's been quite a step backwards for the 8pm slot. Where's Bill and Tucker? I used to be a Fox fan and a Watters fan; not so much these days.”



 



 

An X user simply called out Watters saying, “Tarot cards reader… really Jesse! Is that raising the bar for 2024?!"



 

Another user called out the host, “This is newsworthy because?”'

One user added, “I'm having a hard time with this nonsense you have been reporting.”



 



 

An X user added, “You lost me tonight.”
