Fox News host Jesse Wattersrebutted commentators attacking President Donald Trump for not instantly labeling Saturday’s violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, as terrorism.

Watters turned the comments and instead focused on the deception employed by Hillary Clinton when a terror attack happened on her watch.

"There’s a lot of hypocrisy going on here,” Watters said Monday on the Fox News show The Five. "Hillary Clinton waited two weeks after Benghazi to call that terrorism. If Trump had blamed Charlottesville on a (phony) video, maybe he would have gotten a free pass.”

Watters also mentioned that Clinton was not the only Democratic figure to avoid instant labeling.

"President Obama waited four days during Ferguson while that city burned, and he was (vacationing) in Martha’s Vineyard,” Watters said.

"Obama also called (Islamist) terrorism ‘workplace violence,’ so it’s hard to be lectured about word games from the left,” he said, referring to language used by the former president after a terror attack at Fort Hood in Texas.
