Barack Obama's support of
Michelle Obama seemed to irritate Jesse Watters, as he blamed the Democrat's love for his partner for why the left-wing party has lost political power to
Donald Trump and Republicans.
"This is why he puts himself on his wife's podcast — which real men don't do,"
The Five host said during an episode of the news show. "He ships all these jobs to China and then wonders why men are looking around like, 'What are we supposed to do now?' So, they're angry, they voted Trump and then the next thing you know they say we're waging war on women and men are toxic and the patriarchy's holding everybody down. So, the men just leave the party."
Jesse continued to rant, "He's a boring guy and the same thing that's happening with the rest of the Democratic party. Without all the lights, camera, action and the teleprompters, you sit a guy down with his 'wife' and it's just a boring, nerdy conversation that no one can relate to."

While Jesse Watters may be bothered by Barack and
Michelle Obama, the power couple couldn't care less about what people say about them.
After rumors swirled that the duo was on the verge of splitting, the two shut down the speculation.
While Barack appeared on Michelle and brother
Craig Robinson's "
IMO" podcast, the famous sibling joked, "Wait, you guys like each other?"
"That's the rumor mill," the former first lady made clear.
"She took me back. It was touch and go for a while," the ex-commander-in-chief joked.
"It's so nice to have you both in the same room together," Craig pointed out.
"I know, because when we aren't, folks think we're divorced," Michelle replied.

Elsewhere in their conversation, Craig Robinson admitted he's constantly bombarded with questions about the state of
Michelle Obama's marriage to Barack Obama, even citing an encounter where the woman asked, "What did he do?"
Despite the public's concern, the
Becoming author made it clear everything is good with her longtime husband. "There hasn't been one moment in our marriage where I have thought about quitting on my man," Michelle said. "And we've had some really hard times. We've had a lot of fun times, a lot of adventures. I've become a better person because of the man I'm married to."
"OK, don't make me cry now," Barack said. "Not at the beginning of the show."
