Van jones: Clinton campaign set a billion dollars 'on fire'

By John Bowden - 06/10/17 03:08 PM EDT

CNN commentator Van Jones ripped the Clinton campaign and the DNC during his speech at The People's Summit in Chicago on Saturday for wasting money and failing to reach out to working-class and minority voters.

"The Hillary Clinton campaign did not spend their money on white workers, and they did not spend it on people of color. They spent it on themselves," Jones told a packed house at McCormick Place in Chicago. "They spent it on themselves, let's be honest."

"Let's be honest," Jones continued. "They took a billion dollars, a billion dollars, a billion dollars, and set it on fire, and called it a campaign!"

"That wasn't a campaign. That's not a campaign."

Jones continued, attacking the Clinton campaign's reliance on consultants and polling data that proved to be wrong.

"A billion dollars for consultants. A billion dollars for pollsters. A billion dollars for a data operation, that was run by data dummies who couldn't figure out that maybe people in Michigan needed to be organized."

Van Jones is a flaming racist. Watch his election night rant about the “white lash” and tell me if you have ever seen any pundit deliver such flagrantly and openly racist crap in your life?

And no one,no one on the panel or CNN called him for his racist crap. Could you imagine the outrage if anyone had referred to Obama’s election in 2008 as a blacklash? And said their white children were crying in their beds with fear that night?

This man is a pig

I dunno, he’s the kind of guy I’d almost like to have a beer with...

If nothing else, he might drink too much and puke all over the place, but it would probably be entertaining after you get him lubed up a bit.

“They spent it on themselves, let’s be honest.”

When you’re a Clinton, that’s what you do.

And they also keep talking about how she didn’t campaign in the states she lost. It wouldn’t have made a difference.

A lot more of this going than meets the news. Somehow the same old rhinos represent civil war amongst republicans, trump supporters and conservatives. I laugh inside every time I hear how united the dems are.

isn’t Van Jones and a slew of other ‘people of color’ being paid by cable tv, which is supported in part, by political ad revenues?

They spent it on themselves," Jones told a packed house at McCormick Place in Chicago.

Well, it takes a lot of money to make a silk purse from a hog. And there are the pantsuits, in a large quantity of colors. The $5000 jackets made from potato sacks.
