'How do I explain this to my children?': Van Jones gives voice to the 'nightmare' some are feeling
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | November 9, 2016 | Travis M. Andrews

As the election results so clearly highlighted, America is a sharply divided country.

Tuesday's election of Donald Trump as the president of the United States has been called many things - "unprecedented," "shocking" and "stunning" among them.

Many, though, described the election with different words as it relates to women and people of color: failure, "disaster," "living nightmare."

He raises his own children?

I’m not buying it.

Van, explain to them that even when millions of illegal foreigners vote and there is cheating on a scale never even imagined before... sometimes God intervenes and evil is still defeated.

'How do I explain this to my children?'

Just tell them that Donald Trump's rise and victory are Barack Obama's true legacy.

And that racism, political correctness, political corruption, the global warming scam, and leftist one-world/globalism are dead,
defeated by their own extremism and excess.

The trouble with these leftist idiots is that they believe their own propaganda. SO Bush is Hitler and now Trump is Hitler.

Possibly some inspiration from JayZ, he has such a way with words and it’s all “for the children”. Go on Van call him, sure he will give you some tips, ni&&a.

Just tell them the truth, Van. Some night when they are sound asleep, the Boogie Man is going to come and suck the air out of their lungs.

He needs to explain to his kids that America is not a communist dictatorship.

Jones made an a** of himself early early this morning when he said the Trump win was a ‘whitelash’.

Yeah, he had to play the race card.

The trouble is both ‘no waze tard’ and Trump are white. Would Jones have used the term if Clinton had won? No way. Jones opened his mouth and removed all doubt about him.

I watched this POS rant and lecture early this morning. I’m hoping that here people will finally be marginalized and disregarded.

I’m so fed up.

""This was a 'white-lash' against a changing country"

No you pathetic racist, it was a backlash against SOCIALISM!!! You nor anyone else is going to be more oppressed than you already think you are. One thing that may change is more EQUAL OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL, rather than privileged favors for those who don't deserve them. The only group of Americans that deserve such, is the disabled.

President Trump, while I understand Cabinet positions are created by Congress, please don't fill the Secretary of the Department of Education seat. They are socialists and stand against your and most Americans' values. That is within your power to NOT hire that Cabinet position. Let the States and Municipalities take back control and let the DC bureaucrats flounder about. Push your Republican Congress to eliminate it altogether. The Fedgove has no place dictating to my local school what curriculum or lunch meals they must endure.

Also President Trump, since your main push was about creating jobs, you should reign in the EPA. It ranks right up there with burdensome regulations and NAFTA for chasing jobs out of America.

Your children just want to go outside and play you dope, they don’t give a crap about who won nor should they. These liberals are nuts and their kids will end up even worse.

You might start by telling them how you supported a pathological lying criminal for the presidency of the United States!
