Jesse Watters Roasted For Audacious Complaint About Michelle Obama
HuffPost
It was bold for the Fox News host to go there after what happened four years ago.
Jesse Watters was not impressed after Michelle Obama said she would not attend GOP President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration, even though neither Trump nor his wife attended Democrat Joe Biden’s four years ago.
On Tuesday’s broadcast of “Jesse Watters Primetime,” the Fox News host complained that the former first lady had already missed former President Jimmy Carter’s funeral last week. Aides to Obama, who would have been seated next to Trump at the service, said she was in Hawaii at time.
“She just doesn’t want to go,” Watters said of the inauguration, before going on to reference Obama’s husband, former President Barack Obama. “Michelle’s hanging Barack out to dry for the second high-profile political event within just a few weeks. Why are Barack and Michelle on such different pages? Barack can’t convince his wife she has to do her duty and attend the inauguration?”
“I remember when it was unpatriotic to skip an inauguration,” he added, pointing to media outlets making “sore loser” criticisms of Trump in 2021 when he declined to go to Biden’s swearing-in and instead flew to his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.
