Fox News’ Jesse Watters had the most eye-wateringly stupid argument for why the US taking Greenland will work out in the end
We can’t claim that Jesse Watters has a reputation for being an intellectual powerhouse. The Fox News presenter is probably best known for his hot takes on what is and isn’t masculine – such as whether it was okay for Tim Walz to drink through a straw, or whether voting for women turns men into women.
The guy clearly has issues, and they’re not issues of ‘Gender Equality Monthly’.
He has thrown the full weight of his complete lack of reason behind Donald Trump’s decision to annexe Greenland, and his latest hot take on that explains why people shouldn’t worry that it will sour US relations with Denmark, the current administrator for the autonomous territory.
Watters: We don't need friends. If we have to burn down a few bridges with Denmark to take Greenland. We’re big boys. We dropped a-bombs on Japan and now they are our ally… America is not handcuffed by history pic.twitter.com/3oQ2ovMuys

The reviews are in – and they’re not great.

I hate to break it to MAGA and the Fox News suck ups repeating these dog shit anti democracy talking points, but you don’t attack Canada and Denmark unless you are Putin’s bitch. Cc Jesse Watters.

in this analogy, Denmark is the country being attacked unproved and responds by nuking the shit out of DC and New York, then occupying America for 50 years to teach you civilization https://t.co/pbhtRQe7W1

This is what American news commentary would look like if the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs was allowed to script it. There's no point even creating your own propaganda when the homegrown content is as good as this. https://t.co/FU4sL0353C

The United States has become an embarrassment to democracy and the very values it claims to stand for. This stain won’t wash away, not now, not ever.
No administration will ever be able to clean up the mess these amateurs are unleashing on the world.

“We don’t need friends. If we have to burn some bridges with Denmark to take Greenland, so be it. We dropped bombs on Japan, and now they’re our ally,” — Fox News host Jesse Watters
Well, we in the EU don’t need ‘friends’ like the U.S. either. pic.twitter.com/UXYNQTOQpa

I must have missed the part where Denmark was conquering the rest of Europe, committing genocides, using conquered civilians as test subjects for biological weapons, bombing the United States, cannibalizing American soldiers, and claiming to have divine right to rule the planet. https://t.co/IvffRtfwQK

Jesse Watters’ reckless take on burning bridges with Denmark over Greenland and twisting history with Japan is dangerous propaganda. Diplomacy, not dominance, builds alliances. His words fuel isolationism and mock the real cost of war. Shame on Fox for platforming this.

It’s like the Heritage Foundation found this dude crawling around in a pit somewhere and told him, “We’re going to save you. We’re going to put you in front of the biggest platform in the nation, make you famous, and you’ll never worry about money again…but we need you to lose…

Jesse Watters is strictly low wattage.
Not an original thought in that barren wasteland of a brain.
'let's go take Greenland… yeehah…'
We brutally dropped bombs on Japan because of Pearl Harbor.
What did Greenland do?

America isn’t handcuffed by history just by the people who clearly learned nothing from it.

It’s crazy to think there are people who only get information from Fox News.

Garry Kasparov, who knows a thing or two about authoritarianism, had this to add.
Trump and his administration now sound like Putin, so it’s fitting that the state propaganda channel is sounding as insane and belligerent as Kremlin television. https://t.co/NpYm6vFJC3
