5:06Now PlayingFox News host Jesse Watters is absolutely beside himself with joy over the thought of immigrants being ripped from their homes and deported by agents of ICE under Trump’s deportation plans. In fact, he went as far as to say that it is going to be hysterical to see this happen. His comments received such backlash that the network was forced to issue a statement saying that his comments were simply taken out of context. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what’s happening.

Donald Trump's first order of business, once he gets sworn in, as we all know, is going to be mass deportations here in the United States, which economists tell us is going to immediately tank the economy. But according to Fox News host Jesse Waters, it's also going to be his hysterical to watch these immigrants get ripped out of their home by ice agents. In case you think I'm bluffing on this, here is Jesse Waters in his own words, telling us how funny it's going to be to watch these people's lives fall apart on camera. Take a look
And there will be massive clashes. 'cause you're gonna have cameras out there making sure that they capture the images of ice coming along and taking these people away, and they deserve to be taken away. Sometimes you have to do tough stuff, but a OC is gonna be there tying herself to migrants. It's gonna be hysterical, but sometimes dad has to do the tough thing
That's gonna be hysterical, right? I mean, we're all gonna be glued to the television. Like we're watching a 1990s, Jim Carrey comedy, got the popcorn there, just laughing our asses off while these migrants get stripped from their homes, separated from their families and deported back to wherever they came from, right? Because that's what America needs. 'cause as Jesse Water says, sometimes dad's gotta come in and be a little tough, and a OC is gonna chain herself to immigrants and be crying. And that's hysterical. Of course. Now, Jesse Waters comments were so bad and actually received so much backlash for the network that a Fox News spokesperson actually had to come out and clarify what Jesse Waters meant, which of course is what you do when you're totally on the winning side of something, right? But anyway, Fox News host came out and clarified that Jesse Waters said that the left's reaction to deportations will be hysterical, as in hysteria. He was not referring to humor. So he is not saying it's gonna be funny to watch people ripped from their homes. It's gonna be hysterical to see the left's reaction, but hysterical as in hysteria, not funny.
You know, sometimes a statement of clarification actually just makes things worse. And I think this is one of those times, right? I I don't think you did yourself any favors or made the situation any better by issuing a completely incoherent statement about what we all saw Jesse Waters say. He was laughing when he said hysterical. So you can't say that he was talking about hysteria when he's laughing, as he says hysterical. He meant it's going to be funny to watch. Here's the thing, we all know that Donald Trump did, of course make inroads with Hispanic and Latino voters. And unfortunately those are the first people he is going going to target. I mean, he has made that abundantly clear. And I think a lot of that population thinks, oh, well, you know, it doesn't apply to me. It will, it absolutely will. And when he runs out of, you know, Hispanics to deport, he will move on to other groups when he runs out of people to attack here who move on to attack these people here.
That's how it goes, right? First they came after the tradesmen, and I wasn't a tradesman, all that, right? They continuously move on to new groups. You know, Jeremy London, the actor, and, uh, somebody that I consider a friend. I hope so, Jeremy, if you're watching, I'd like to think we're kind of friends. But anyway, um, he posted on social media the other day. The finding out part for people is of course, never as fun as the effing around part. And I think that's what we're gonna see with these mass deportations. Sure, we may have a lot of people in this country, perhaps even a majority, that are happy about it, that will find it hysterical.
