"SNIP...........

Fox News host Jesse Watters took some time on Wednesday to offer up a strange criticism of Gov. Tim Walz. "Women love masculinity and women do not love Tim Walz,” Watters claimed. “So that should just tell you about how masculine Tim Walz is.”

Brand-new polling shows that women prefer Walz to Republican running mate—and misogynist meme generator—Sen. JD Vance. And virtually every poll shows women would choose Vice President Kamala Harris to convicted felon Donald Trump, making this an odd way for the very creepy Watters to begin things. But it gets stranger.

“The other day you saw him with a vanilla ice cream shake. Had a straw in it. Oh. Again, that tells you everything," Watters concluded.

What a weird, weird, weird device to fixate your concept of masculinity on.

............SNIP"

We routinely gave straws with all shakes.

I thought the question about straws now is just to prefer paper to plastic.

I am betting the man is not successful at all with women. I certainly wouldn’t want him in the same room with me.
