Ex-Aide To Kamala Harris Shreds Jesse Watters Using 1 Not-So-'Good' GOP Headline
Mike Nellis, an ex-senior adviser to former Vice President Kamala Harris’ 2020 campaign, ripped Fox News host Jesse Watters on Monday after Texas Democrats prevented Republicans in the state’s House from advancing a redistricting vote that looks to benefit the GOP in next year’s midterm elections.
Watters questioned Nellis over whether he thinks it’s “smart for all the headlines” to read that Texas Democrats “ran away from the job,” a reference to dozens of the party’s lawmakers leaving the state to break quorum in an effort to block the GOP-majority House from proceeding with the plan backed by President Donald Trump.
“Well, let’s take a step back from that for a second,” Nellis replied. “Do you think it’s a good headline for all the headlines to say that Republicans are so worried about losing the midterms they decided to rig the maps?”
The GOP-majority House has since issued civil arrest warrants against the Democrats, an effort that legal experts have dismissed as unenforceable outside the Lone Star State.
