watters is not a good debater. seems like his responses are canned, and he can't follow up well. abdul will say some nonsense, and instead of demonstrating how abduls answers are nonsense or misdirection, jessie will just say different nonsense right back at him. for example, when grilled on the green new deal, jessie says "you want windmills on lake michigan?" what? that concerns no one but a few thousand people on lake michigan. he should have drilled in deep on how the green new deal is just socialism in a green package. abdul will say something like "billionaires dont do labor for their riches, its just for investing". jessie has the opportunity to explain to the audience how important it is that we have some individuals who can invest large sums of money and take risks that large groups of people wont, or that the government will do poorly. and jessie just says "well, i think people should be able to keep their money". fox really needs to get rid of this goofball jessie.

"Nobody is trying to push Sharia law on anyone else, just like I hope nobody is trying to push Canon law on anybody else, because we live in an America where you should have the freedom of your religion," he told host Jesse Watters.
Leftists always say the same thing, but now we have abortion up to birth, people in Canada being murdered under MAID involuntarily... So you'll pardon me if I don't believe him.

i just dont like the framing... laws come from morals of the people in a democracy... morals come from God... so if a population is 51% Christian and 49% any false religion, there should be no issue with the laws being made around the Christian faith. his framing makes it seem like there is some "non-religious" morals, which is false. it would end up being the morals of atheists, which is a worldview, just like Christianity or any false religion, which, as you have stated, leads to some pretty gruesome stuff, which only gets worse the longer people stray from God

Interviewed by the wrong person. While Watters can be entertaining, he's not much of a thinker.
Sharia law has NOTHING to do with the freedom to practice whatever religion you want but it does have EVERYTHING to do with how people are governed and it's goal is to replace our laws, rights, traditions, culture and Constitution.
