Jesse Watters Says a Wife Voting for Kamala Harris is Like ‘Having an Affair’
Watters, known for his provocative statements, said, “If I found out Emma was going into the voting booth and pulling the lever for Harris, that’s the same thing as having an affair. That violates the sanctity of our marriage. What else is she keeping from me? What else is she lying about?”
