Fox News Host Says Wife Voting for Harris Is the Same Thing as Having an Affair

Last edited Sun Nov 3, 2024, 02:20 PM - Edit history (1)

It is just a matter of time before Fox News goes all in on the repeal the 19th Amendment, pro-household voting push. After all, if a wife voting against Republicans is akin to cheating, what is the point of women voting in the first place if their only purpose is to amplify a man’s political choices.

A Fox News host said on air that if his wife votes for Kamala Harris in the election, it would be on a par with her having "an affair."

Jesse Watters said on Fox's The Five show that his wife, Emma DiGiovine, "pulling the lever for Harris, that's the same thing as an affair," when the panel discussed the vice president's new ad encouraging wives to make their own choice in the voting booth.

The ad, which was posted on X by the account Vote Common Good on October 28, showed two wives going to the voting booth and marking Harris-Walz on their ballot, suggesting that they didn't need to tell their husbands who they voted for.

In a voice-over, actor Julia Roberts said: "You can vote in any way you want, and no one will ever know. What happens in the booth, stays in the booth. Vote Harris-Walz."

He cheated on his former wife with his current wife. He's an expert on having affairs.

After he let the air out of her tires at work so he would have an excuse to drive her home.

She was an intern working for fox at the time, so young and no doubt at a power disadvantage.

Duh.

Amazing that some Republican men think they have a RIGHT to know or maybe even CONTROL their wives' votes.

Weird that they don't consider WHY a woman might feel she needs to keep her vote a secret or even lie about it if asked? I'd be asking myself THAT question.
