Jesse Watters Doppelganger Appears on Fox News

 

A Fox News digital columnist bearing an uncanny resemblance to Fox News’ own Jesse Watters appeared on the network for a TV hit Tuesday.

On Tuesday afternoon, host Will Cain opened The Will Cain Show with a discussion on the U.S.’s trade war with China. Joining him for the conversation was Fox Business senior correspondent Charles Gasparino and David Marcus of Fox News Digital. Viewers would not have been faulted for mistaking him for the host of The Five and Jesse Watters Primetime, as the two appear to sport nearly identical hairstyles.

The similarities pretty much stop there, with Marcus speaking in a much more subdued tone compared to Watters’ usual flair.

During their discussion, Cain suggested that supporters of President Donald Trump would be willing to endure a period of financial hardship as long as it benefits local businesses — or “Main Street” — in the long run. Marcus, who was introduced as being “in touch with the Trump base,” agreed.

“I was in a little town called Charleroi, Pennsylvania a couple of weeks ago,” Marcus said, “and in the little downtown shopping area, 80% of the storefronts are vacant. Basically the only two types of stores that are still there are places where you can send money to another country or bodegas that sell goat meat and foreign groceries. About half of the houses were completely abandoned; and, inexplicably, our federal government’s answer for this place — just like in Springfield, Ohio — was to dump 9,000 Haitian migrants, who do not assimilate, into their town.

“Donald Trump is the first major politician for 30 years — since H. Ross Perot — to take this very real problem seriously, because it’s not just Charleroi; it’s Cleveland, Texas; it’s Springfield, Ohio; it’s all over the country. And so yeah, they’re in this for the long haul, and if they have to pay a little more at Walmart, from what they tell me, they’re going to do it.”
