Fox News conservative commentator Jesse Watters shocked no one when he continued his attacks on former US vice-president Kamala Harris, as well as her husband, Doug Emhoff, in a recent episode of Jesse Watters Primetime. Reacting to photographs released by the New York Post of the couple shopping in Westwood, Los Angeles, he quipped, “What kind of man gets up in the morning and says, ‘I’m going to go grocery shopping with my wife’?”

The comment was met with vitriol from netizens, including ex-Republican politician Joe Walsh, who asserted, “Only a very weak, insecure man would ask a question like that.” Elsewhere on social media, Watters’ own love life was brought into question, particularly his controversial relationship with second wife, Emma, with whom he attended Donald Trump’s inauguration last month.
