Jesse Watters' Harsh Confession: Fox News Star Hopes 'There Is Not a Female President in My Lifetime'
OK! ^ | April 2 2026 | Lesley Abravanel

Posted on 04/02/2026 2:27:52 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican

Fox News personality Jesse Watters questioned the "emotional maturity" of women and said, "I hope there's not a female president in my lifetime" during an episode of his show.

The comments came following an exclusive interview with MS NOW in which Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi asserted that the American people have long been more prepared for a female president than Congress was for a female speaker, but that she didn’t believe that at 86 years old, it would happen in her lifetime.

“Well, Nancy says there will not be a female president in her lifetime, and I say thank god,” Watters said in response on the Wednesday, April 1, episode of The Five. “I hope there is not a female president in my lifetime.”

I’m a woman too, and for me it would entirely depend upon the woman in question.

I would be hard pressed to imagine a situation where I’d vote for a woman president.
I wouldn’t say its impossible , but lets just say incredibly unlikely especially considering the current crop of female politicians.

I agree. Mainly because there is no woman currently in politics that shows potential.

The ‘Lesser of Two Evils’ crowd would crawl over broken glass to elect a woman president if the alternative were a Democrat.

And if you were watching that segment, you would also know that he was joking.

I know it’s important to record every word that someone says and hold them to it…but he was actually doing a fake “spiral”, saying one absurd thing after another.

Liberals have zero sense of humor.

It’s not that people don’t want to vote for a woman. They don’t want to vote for THAT woman.

Put a worthy candidate up for office and people will vote for them.

The only female I would’ve considered was Jeane Kirkpatrick, she was a fighter and didn’t any crap from anyone (RIP Jean)

Women can do it. Maggie thatcher. Queens have done it. They have to be able to manage it. Have to know how to get a network in working order. Few men can do it. Trump is one in probably a billion in our history

Jeanne Kirkpatrick was the type.

The older I get the more I realize that most women are emotionally incapable of holding power. I think the problem is in that women were meant to be more nurturing and that politics attracts women who are broken in such a way that is dangerous. you have this same problem with broken men but society spots it in men a lot Better then it does in women

If we surveyed the top female politicians in the country, both Democrat and Republican, not one of them has the right stuff to be president. On the Democrat side: AOC, Kamala, Whitmer, over the Hill. On the Republican side: Icky Niki...
There are no strong female candidates.
