Fox Host Jokes About ‘Borrowing’ Bermuda
Fox News host Jesse Watters joked in two broadcasts this month that the U.S. could “borrow” or “take” Bermuda from Britain.
In one broadcast, Mr Watters, who is known for making controversial comments, said “If we needed Bermuda to defend the Caribbean from the enemy, I think the British would let us borrow the island. It’s called sharing. Funny thing is, the Europeans are lecturing us about colonies, and and in another broadcast, the host said, “If we needed Bermuda, we’d take it and the British would let it happen. Why is Denmark being so selfish? We bought the Virgin Islands from Denmark 100 years ago.”
Watters has criticized Europeans for refusing to give Greenland to President Donald Trump, questioning, “Why won’t they give daddy what he wants?”
Time to wake up and realize that americans are not your friends.
You had better hope that the Americans are our friends, because we wouldn’t last a hot minute without them!
The only reason that the rest of the world doesn’t close us down is because of our connection to Britain, the legal system and appeal to the highest courts in Britain and British associations in NATO the UN and other large economic trading relationships.
We lose that connection to Britain and we are done. If Putin can just walk into Ukraine as they were not members of NATO, then he or others could just drop in and take over us. Our connection to Britain prevents that.
Yes, the UK protects us….and we disrespect them for it. Good luck Bermuda, you need it.
No, you’re the hoping that they’re your friends. I can fend for myself, I don’t need a yankee overlord, like you do.
Typical American “intelligence”. Bermuda was not colonized.
Respectfully, keep us out of your mouths.
Really? And yet the BTA spends millions of dollars a year marketing Bermuda to the USA to help Americans talk about Bermuda. I guess it should all be hush-hush, on the down low, whispers. Need a code word for Bermuda, like Rosebud or Ber-Ber.
If Trump wanted to take Bermuda, then our spineless PM would give up Sovereignty to appease the President Trump.
Probably in the works.
Two of a kind. Look at the traits of Burt, Trump, Putin, Maduro, so many dictators that are leaders of failing economys.
I am surprised the Big Guy has not offered to take in a few deportees, as a previous premier did for Barry’s Gitmo guests.
Another stupid idiot who thinks we are in the Caribbean! Lol what a fool and he calls himself a reporter?
Well, Bermuda is sort of like Epsteins island, with all the pedos here.
Worst lol, trump should take it the leaders are selling us down the drain anyway.
Bermuda would not last two weeks without the US connection. The grocery store shelves would be bare in no time at all, just for starters.
Best if this little tiny town sized island keeps its head low and it’s politicians silent until this upheaval blows over. The world will be a different place with the US a far less dominant player in world affairs but that will not change our reliance on the US for virtually everything that we need.
We are where we are a day or so from East Coast ports and supply centers. Dreams of sourcing supplys in any quantity from anywhere else are just that, dreams.
If you live in a $17 Million house and are a supposed Journalist , what a life.
Imagine how much Harris Faketeeters has……..
I love reading jealousy and envy. How many multi-million dollar mansions does Obama own? Four, I believe, including two oceanfront properties. No sea level worries to see, apparently. Good for him.
At least he does not spread B.S. and lies everyday like Waters.
In what universe? Barry is behind the scenes pulling strings, setting policy, etc. Not spreading BS? Never heard Barry speak about “climate change?” American last? Releasing $100 BILLION to Iran, the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism? I think I reached my limit of what I can post.
Israel are the world’s biggest sponsor of terrorism , get it right!
LOL…you’re a bigot. Hamas is the worlds terror organization, committing genocide on Jewish people.
Hamas, like Hezbollah and other such organisations in the Middle East, is supported, if not sponsored, by Iran.
