Fox News’ Jesse Watters brushed off a dig at President Donald Trump by Sen. Jon Ossoff, D-Ga., on Tuesday.
The lawmaker implied there was an inappropriate relationship between the president and Natalie Harp, a female aide. While giving a speech at a rally on Sunday, Ossoff called out the two in a statement that is causing outrage among a number of the president’s supporters.
“He golfs and trades stocks,” he said of Trump. “See, he doesn’t want to do the job; he wants to build his ballroom and travel with Natalie to their apparently defenseless flying palace gifted by the Emir of Qatar.”
But Watters refused to count himself among the pearl clutchers:
Watters on Natalie Harp: Am I fazed by this comment? No. Has Trump said so much worse, so much more sleazy things against other people? Yes. Have I defended those things? Absolutely. So, I’m not going to pretend I’m all hot and bothered about this. pic.twitter.com/vXO4b20smN

“Yeah, I mean, Natalie had bone cancer, and Trump saved her life,” he said, referring to the Right to Try Act, signed into law in 2018. Harp believes this law saved her life by allowing her to access experimental medical treatments.
“To suggest that Trump surrounds himself with attractive women — I mean, yeah. He’s done that his whole life. I don’t think he’s very upset about the comment. Uh, am I fazed by this comment? No. Has Trump said so much worse? So much more sleazy things against other people? Yes! Have I defended those things? Absolutely!” Watters admitted. “So, I’m not gonna pretend I’m all hot and bothered about it, and the president doesn’t even care. He’s like, ‘What? Who? Who? Pee-Wee Herman? Next.'”
Leftist X users described the clip as a “moment of clarity” from Watters:
This might be the first time Watters chose not to be a hypocrite. Mark down the date. https://t.co/j4I9zRcHMG
