DANA PERINO (CO-HOST): Jesse, one of the things I cannot stand is complaints about golf.

JESSE WATTERS (CO-HOST): Me too. And that's not a middle finger to middle America, that's a middle finger to all of these foreign countries who are trying to get on the phone and negotiate these tariffs down. But if Biden was golfing during a stock market like this, I'm sure I wouldn't say a word. 

GREG GUTFELD (CO-HOST): You wouldn't.

WATTERS: I would not. 

I'm not panicking, Dana, because I'm not looking. I haven't looked at my bank account. I'm afraid.
