JESSE WATTERS (CO-HOST): You know who's really upset? Van Hollen. So, just came out today, and I'm sure Jessica saw it, the Democrats are really trying to reconnect with normal people, that's what it says. They have lost touch with normal people. Let me just explain how normal people think. When you see a video of a cocaine canoe get smoked out of the water by the U.S. Military, normal people say, "Yeah!" Alright? We're like, "Smoke some narcos, goodbye, light them up, see you later." That's what normal people do. Normal people like to see the war on drugs fought as a war, because it hasn't worked the way before. And a lot of people in America -- normal people -- have families that have lost people to drugs. So they see this canoe and they see a potential death coming, and we like to light this guy up.
