Fox News host Jesse Watters shredded California Democrat Sen. Alex Padilla as a crazy person after he interrupted Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s press conference and had to be removed by police.
The senator got combative with authorities and had to be taken down to the floor by security.
Hours later, he had a press conference where he was on the verge of tears.
“The hearings didn’t go well today for Democrats. It’s just a bad day for the Democrats. They just are such a bad party. I’m not even taking them seriously anymore. Real men do not let their emotions take over, okay? This is what Code Pink does, they run and scream and cause a scene. Real men don’t almost cries at a press conference. Greg is right come he didn’t seem like a Senator, he seems like a crazy man impersonating a Senator. No one knows who Alex Padilla is — is his name Alex? No one knows who this guy is come he is not Fetterman, not Lindsey Graham, no one recognized him. Oh, it is the junior Senator from California. He is a nobody. And these police officers didn’t know who he was because he wasn’t even wearing his little Senate badge, he wasn’t in a suit. This was a stunt,” Watters said.
“Some would call it journalism, some would say I pulled similar stunts for “The Factor” and I did because I was a stupid producer, not a senator. These guys are supposed to move the masses with eloquent words and great, uplifting speeches, or they can legislate. And they could make it illegal to break into the country. So why don’t they just do that and drop the nonsense? This guy is doing it because his base is furious that they don’t look like they are doing anything. So he has to show the base he is a fighter and he is doing it for attention to raise cash and then he is trying to frame Trump as a dictator because than Trump’s guys put him in handcuffs and he’s like oh, my god, I’m a political prisoner, and everybody says, wow, Trump is really Hitler and then they shoot him in the head again. That is what the end result of this is going to be,” he said.
