Watters argued that Trump's promise was not a bribe but an \"enticement.\" When questioned about the possibility of Republicans rejecting the check, Watters blamed Congress, saying it wasn't Trump's fault. The comparison drew a disapproving reaction from fellow Fox News host Greg Gutfeld, who reminded Watters that being enticed does not guarantee a reward.",
