Fox News host Jesse Watters, 46, drew widespread criticism after suggesting that generals 'would have their way' with Kamala Harris if she were elected.
Watters made the controversial remark while discussing the issue of foreign policy during Monday's edition of The Five.
'What is her foreign policy?' the Fox host asked. 'This is where the commander in chief has the most impact. We don't know who she is. We don't know what she believes.'
He continued: 'She's gonna get paralyzed in the situation room while the generals have their way with her.'

'What is her foreign policy?' the Fox host asked of Harris
Watters' own co-hosts appeared to be shocked by his crude suggestion.
'Jesse Watters,' co-host Dana Perino chided.
'I don't like that. Take it back,' Jeanine Pirro said in a reproachful tone.
Watters, who also hosts Jesse Watters Primetime, shook his head.
'Figuratively,' he quickly added.
'Have their way with her! Control her,' the Fox host continued. 'Not in a sexual way,' Watters said.
In the background, co-host Greg Gutfeld appeared to be laughing.
Watters attempted to brush off the awkward moment and return to the point he was attempting to make about Harris' foreign policy.
'Ukraine's actually now invading Russia and you're gonna have her as commander in chief?'

Despite Watters' attempt to move past the blunder, viewers were stunned with the Fox's host's choice of words.
On X.com, American journalist Yashar Ali posted a clip of the moment and wrote: 'Would Watters use this sexualized language when describing a straight man? He likely wouldn't!'
One person replied in the comments section: 'A classic misogynist. He was called out and you can see his smile. That wasn't said innocently. He meant it that way.'
Someone else wrote: 'Another day, another example of Jesse Watters' sexism and misogyny.'
Other viewers, however, protested that the host did not mean for his statement to come across as sexual.
'He said immediately afterwards he didn't mean it sexually,' one viewer said.

'You watched it. So you know he said he didn't mean it sexually, so why are you going there?' another asked.
At Fox, Watters first became known through his work on The O'Reilly Factor, where he was featured in a recurring segment called Watters' World.
In 2023, after Fox fired Tucker Carlson from the network, they hand-picked the rising star to fill the coveted 8pm slot.
In late July, Watters raised eyebrows after he said that women who vote for Kamala Harris have 'mommy issues' and men who vote for her will turn into a woman.
'Vote for a woman just because she's a woman?' he asked during an episode of The Five.
'It's either childish or that person has mommy issues or they're just trying to be accepted by other women.'
The Fox host went on to make a joke abut what happens to men who vote for women.
'I heard that scientists said the other day that when a man votes for a woman, he actually transitions into a woman,' Watters said.
