Jesse Watters comment about fast-food workers salaries didnt add up for people online.

OK, so, $40k a year. So, and then if your husband or wife is also there. Youre making $100,000 as a family, both working at McDonalds.

Watters was told that would add up to $80,000.

OK, Watters responded. Thats crazy. That is crazy, because that job really doesnt require much so its inflating the entire, you know, labor sector.

The clip has gone viral on X, formerly Twitter, and on Saturday it came to the attention of MSNBC s Lawrence ODonnell.
