Jesse Watters made fun of candidate for Senate and Texas state Rep. James Talarico for hiding his girlfriend’s identity from the public on his Fox News show Wednesday.
The host of “Jesse Watters Primetime” jeered that Talarico was 37 and not married, drawing laughs from his panel of co-hosts. He also speculated whether he had a girlfriend at all.
“He says just recently that he has a girlfriend and that they’ve been together for four years. He called her his best friend,” Watters said. “He’s not revealing her identity because he wants to respect her privacy and keep her safe during the campaign.”
“Does she live in Canada?” another co-host chimes in.
The U.S. Senate candidate opened up about his girlfriend on Jamie Kern Lima podcast earlier this month. His campaign said he met his girlfriend when she was the Chief of Staff in his Texas House legislative office, and that they’ve been together for four years since.
“Why haven’t we ever seen her before?” Watters added on Fox News. “Does she exist? We’re gonna find out. If he wins, are they going to have a coming out party? Or is she still gonna stay the secret girlfriend?”
Talarico’s campaign asked that her name not be published as the Democratic candidate wanted to protect her. In the interview, the 37-year-old also told Lima that he wanted to be a father one day.
The Democratic candidate will run against Attorney General Ken Paxton or U.S. Sen. John Cornyn in the general election for U.S. Senate following the May 26 GOP runoff.

The Texas Senate Race will be entertaining for the next 5 months
Probably a tranny................
I think he is a poofter. Won’t sell in Texas. At least the “old Texas.”
Og that mean bully, Jesse Watters.
Seems to me that Watters can safely say pretty much anything from his protected studio. I can see him as a young schoolyard bully. He’s full of hubris, not funny, nor entertaining and has likely never been punched in the mouth.
“”””Probably a tranny................”””
My thoughts as well. Especially given the Talarico video where he talks about his love of ‘trans children’
The “excitement” over Talafreako is real in Texas... at least to the lying POS enemedia filth. I’ve seen one Talafreako bumper sticker so far this election cycle in the North Texas... nothing like the gazillion Betotard signs and stickers from four years ago, but they will probably pay people to plaster them everywhere to make it appear as though he has support.
Her name is out there, but no photos.
She’s supposed to be his former chief of staff. Hispanic. UT grad.
Could not find photos.
Assuming it’s a tranny.
A Big Mike-like beard.
Little Jimmy Trannyrico has been “bullied” all his life. He’s a tranny freak.
“Is your “girlfriend” in the room with you right now?”
If she wants to remain private, I think that should be respected. I am probably in the minority on this.
Yes, if your dating someone who is running for office, you can’t really expect total privacy, but there are a lot of idiots and crazies out there.
I think he can be the target because he opened himself up for it. She didn’t
I get it that Jesse was criticizing him by attacking her anonymity, so technically he wasn’t going after her exactly. I still think it’s low.

Now when you say "girlfriend", you mean "boyfriend," right?
Most likely.
This is politics.
Just because she held a job title and was on the payroll doesn't mean she actually exists and even if she does exist doesn't mean she ever showed up for work.
And Ken Paxton’s girlfriend(s) that he cheated on his wife with while in office?
Really? Just stick to the issues or the six gender thing, but let’s not try to set Mr. Paxton up as some sort of standard of virtue by comparison. 🙄
“Bullies”
Tess was probably crying when she wrote that.
Maybe talarico’s girlfriend has a beard.
