Fox News host Jesse Watters of “Watters World” hit New York University to ask college students what Halloween costumers they found offensive and if President Trump “scared them.” Unsurprisingly, the responses were absolutely ridiculous.

Highlights of the clip include Watters asking one female college student what costumes were offensive, to which she replied with the “politically incorrect,” term “Indians.” Watters corrected her saying “Native American,” and then the embarrassed student mumbled convoluted diatribe about “complex structures,” disqualifying whites from dressing as Native Americans.
Watters was unconvinced.
One man told Watters that President Trump scared him and his friends a great deal — So much so that his Californian friends are running bomb drills.
College campuses across the U.S. are in full crackdown mode, banning costumes they think are offensive.
Princeton University sent out the following guide to help student discern if their costume is offensive:
