Jesse Watters and Fox thought they had a sure thing to promote their favorite presidential candidate, Donald Trump, and so they invited well-known tarot card reader Paula Roberts to predict the presumed GOP nominee’s political future– on air.
To their great surprise and consternation, the psychic’s reading was not what they had anticipated or hoped for. Perhaps she had not read the script?
“I do recognise I’m on Fox TV,” Paula Roberts said, laughing nervously next to the rightwing anchor. What she saw was, “A sense of loss. A sense of loss, but it’s very specific.”
According to her own website, Roberts is a “psychic, clairvoyant, seer, ghost hunter, remote viewer, handwriting analyst and speaker … aware of the presence of spirit” since she was a small child in the UK but is now based in New York City.
This is not the first time that Roberts engages in reading the future of these political rivals. In the 2020 election she read the cards for Trump and Biden and made the bold prediction that Donald Trump, the then-incumbent president and Republican candidate, would lose to his Democratic rival, Joe Biden.
Roberts says she based her forecast on the cards she drew from her deck, as well as her intuition and experience. In 2020 she explained that the cards showed her a lot of conflict, chaos and deception surrounding Trump, while Biden appeared more stable, trustworthy and compassionate. Hmm, we wonder if you need to be a psychic to observe the chaos created by Trump in his four years as president.
On Tuesday, Watters, who is a dedicated controversialist and conspiracist and the leading light of the Fox News prime-time lineup, asked Roberts for “a reading on President Trump”.
Roberts drew one tarot card from a deck spread before her. The card showed a figure in a black robe, standing bowed in a landscape.
“Uh-oh,” said Watters, echoed by Roberts.
“What is that?” the host asked—no doubt worried at this juncture.
Roberts delivered her reading—probably reluctantly now that she saw which way the cards were leaning, live on the most Trump-friendly network, no less. Appearing to sense Watters’ disappointment and trying to recover from the blunder, she continued: “No, no, let me move on. It’s a sense of loss. It’s as if he may be thinking more about what he’s lost and not still taking full advantage of what he still has.”
“That’s a great interpretation, Paula,” said Watters, laughing.
“It’s true, I don’t make it up,” said Roberts.
Watters asked what Biden’s year would look like. Roberts drew another card, revealing a light-robed figure in what appeared to be a blooming garden or orchard.
“Lots and lots and lots and lots of money,” she said. “Lots of money.”
With 91 counts of felony charges against him, Donald Trump is certainly surrounded by a black aura. Perhaps that’s what Roberts saw in her reading of the cards.
