Jesse Watters Compares Wife's Vote to Affair

During a discussion on Fox News' The Five, host Jesse Watters compared his wife's potential vote for Kamala Harris to having an affair, stating it would violate the sanctity of their marriage. This comment was made in response to a campaign ad featuring actress Julia Roberts, which encouraged women to vote privately without feeling obligated to align with their husbands' political views. Watters expressed concern over what else his wife might be hiding if she voted against his wishes, stating, 'It’s over, Emma! That would be D-Day!' His remarks have prompted significant backlash on social media, with many labeling them as misogynistic. Other right-wing commentators, including Charlie Kirk, echoed Watters' sentiments, condemning the ad for promoting deceit among spouses. Meanwhile, the ad aims to empower women to make their own voting choices, highlighting that the voting booth is a private space.
