On Thursday, CNN political commentator [and Self-Avowed Communist] Van Jones praised President Joe Biden’s address on the coronavirus pandemic as a calling to a “deeper patriotism.”
[Self-Avowed Communist] Jones said, “I just think that he is the guy we need right now. When he talked about I’m going to heal the soul of America, a lot of people thought that was some corny stuff. But to see the president of the United States standing up there, he didn’t say you need me. He said I need you. I mean, my God, that is —isn’t that it? We need each other. And then the inclusivity. It’s the little touches. He didn’t just say the states. He said and the tribes and the territories. He talked about rural America. He’s got money in there for rural Americans. He talked about corporations coming together. And he stuck up for the Asian-American community that’s been living a horror for the entire time. He didn’t blame the other party for not being there. He told the country that we can get this done. And the tone was different. Tangibly it’s different in terms of who he’s helping. But this is exactly what we need right now.”
He added, “I think it’s a deeper kind of patriotism. There’s this kind of cheaper patriotism that separates the American people from America’s government and says, I love America’s people, I hate America’s government. He said the government is us. It’s a democracy. The government is us. And he’s calling for a whole of government and whole of society approach. When he’s bragging on those competitors, ‘I’ve got two corporations that are competing, and they’re helping us. We’re working together,’ those are the kind of touches that kind of just suggest we can start helping each other.”

“He said the government is us.”
If only that were so.
Who is this “we” of whom Van Jones speaks? We need a separate place. That way we cannot oppress poor Mr. Jones with our racisms.

None of his reasoning makes any sense to me.
pa·tri·ot·ism
/ˈpātrēəˌtizəm/
noun - the quality of being patriotic; devotion to and vigorous support for one’s country.
What has Biden done to support the US? Maybe his patriotism is for South American countries, Mexico or China.
Mr Jones is a talented talker,..... and a talented deceiver.
Jones wants his reparations
Maybe the “we” is DJT, Ivanka and Jared, who were eager to work with Jones.
OK, that makes sense
Deeper patriotism=CCP communism
Mr. Jones is full of Bovine excrement.
AND no more reparations are necessary.
Whites lost their lives freeing slaves. Whites lost family members.
Plus most whites living now had nothing to do with slavery.
This crap is ridiculous!
The pandering must end.
>>But this is exactly what we need right now.<<
Might be what you need but not me. Quit imposing your tyranny on me, give me my own nation to rule over as I see fit, not live under what you and your insane leftists see as fit.
Van Jones - The Biggest Douche in the Universe? Yes, yes he is.
Chinese patriotism??
More proof, that the dumbest people on the planet, are Fake News Talking Heads, and Actors/Actresses telling us how much they love being lied to by their democrat masters!
It seems like the Biden administration gives the American people complete garbage and expects us to put up with it. They tell us we need unity, and Biden’s signing radical leftist policy. He tells us he’s a man of faith, and he’s advocating for the dismemberment of unborn babies. He vowed to be the president for “all Americans” but he can’t make time for an address to the public nearly 50 days after being sworn in. It has literally been at least 100 years since the last president who did that. When he does do his first prime time national address, he practically sells the vaccine accomplishments of the last administration as his own.
Who in their right mind would be not inspired by this pathetic leader, much less moved to tears?
So glad they are willing to give their all. I’m done.
Disgusting
