 Fox NewsJesse Watters on Wednesday fawned over Donald Trump's post-trial appearance at a Harlem bodega the day prior, highlighting onlookers' supportive chants and insisting that the limo-riding former president—who has repeatedly claimed that shoppers have to show photo ID to simply buy a loaf of bread—"still knows the cost of living."
The Fox News host opened his show with selected clips from Trump's stop at Sanaa Convenient Store. The location drew headlines two years ago when a clerk, who had fatally stabbed a man in apparent self-defense, was initially charged with murder. The Manhattan district attorney's office ultimately dropped the charges, but the incident has often been cited by Republicans in their criticisms of Alvin Bragg's prosecutorial decisions regarding violent crime.
Watters, reacting to how those gathered outside the store were chanting Trump's name, argued that Trump hasn't lost touch with blue collar workers.
