Fox News host Jesse Watters floated the idea of actress Sydney Sweeney marrying President Donald Trump’s 19-year-old son Barron Trump after the president praised her on social media.
Watters reacted on “The Five” to the controversy surrounding Sydney Sweeney’s recent American Eagle jeans campaign, saying:
“They’ve called a blonde-haired, blue-eyed actress a Nazi for a week. This is a Madison Avenue campaign thing that they’ve done since the 80s, they play on words with jeans. They’ve done it with brown-eyed girls, Blacks, and blondes. And so Trump, who is in the culture because he watches TV all the time, seizes on this, champions this great American clothing company, and the Democrats lose another culture war battle. They are winless in the culture war over the last couple years. They are like, Dana, the Cleveland Browns of politics.
“And so, my question is, why are Democrats so obsessed with Nazis? Everything is Nazis. So when I hear someone has good genes, I think hot parents. I don’t think Hitler. They think Hitler all the time, and the CEO is Jewish. He’s not thinking Hitler. He’s thinking sex sells ’cause he’s smart and the stock’s up 20%. Now, every girl wants to look like her and every guy wants to look at her, and the Democrats think, wait a second, why don’t we call her a Nazi and boycott the company? They spent $20 million on how to get men back? Just stop doing that. Whatever you’re doing, just stop doing it.”
He added, “And you know how this ends? She’s gonna marry Barron and it’s going to create the greatest political dynasty in American history.”
President Trump praised Sweeney in a Truth Social post on Monday, initially misspelling her name.
“Sidney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the HOTTEST ad out there. It’s for American Eagle, and the jeans are ‘flying of the shelves.’ Go get ’em Sidney,” Trump wrote. “On the other side of the ledger, Jaguar did a stupid, and seriously WOKE, advertisement, THAT IS A DISASTER. The CEO just resigned, the company is in turmoil. Shouldn’t they have learned a lesson from Bud Lite, which went Woke and essentially destroyed, in a short but very Woke campaign, the Company. The market cap destruction has been unprecedented, BILLIONS OF DOLLARS LOST. Or just look at Woke singer Taylor Swift. Ever since I alerted the world as to what she was by saying on TRUTH that I can’t stand her.”
Sweeney’s brother, Trent Sweeney, isn’t fazed by the backlash to her American Eagle campaign.
