Jesse Watters seemed eager to discuss President Donald Trump’s remarks about Ohio Republican Sen. Jon Husted’s rear during Tuesday night’s episode of “The Five.”

Making a hard pivot from co-host Emily Compagno’s election analysis, Watters told the table, “We’re talking about guy’s asses. I don’t know why you’re talking about Alaska.”

Having successfully hijacked the conversation, he continued, “Trump says a lot of stuff we don’t think and we don’t say. Sometimes it sounds a little gay. He can get away with it because he’s straight.”

“We talk about guy’s stuff sometimes. Greg has no ass,” the pundit then teased co-host Greg Gutfeld. “Flat. Just falls off his back.”

“Can he say this?” Gutfeld asked.

“The president said it!” Watters shot back. “This is the topic.”

After some HR-worthy comments about his assistant’s backside, Watters got back to politics (kind of), as he declared, “Now, I always say vote for the better athlete ... You got to go with the guy with the better ass.”

While Trump was in Youngstown, Ohio, to rally Republican voters on Monday night, he couldn’t help but take a second to admire Husted’s body.

“I don’t do this with men very often. I started examining his body because I didn’t know he was a great athlete,” he said of the incumbent, who was once a college football champ.

“And I looked, and I watched up and down. And I looked at his ass,” the president went on. “And then I looked at his hands. Look at his hands. He’s got these, like, claws. And I got it. You are a great athlete.”
