CNN political commentator Van Jones said Tuesday on CNN that former President Donald Trump picking Georgia Republican Senate nominee Herschel Walker was an insult to black voters.
Jones said, “What I do know is this, tonight is about Georgia. And tonight is about Trump picking somebody who frankly used to be a hero – Herschel Walker used to be an inspiration, now it means insult. He’s an insult to the black community. What you may see tonight is people coming out, not just to vote in favor of a senator they love but just to vote against Donald Trump picking somebody like this and throwing this person at the voters in Georgia. Like you’ll just pick anybody who is black.”
He added, “His judgment, Trump’s judgment tonight, is going to be, I think, called into question by a lot of people. And I think that when you have a situation where it’s obvious that Trump, he was a little too clever by half. ‘I know, I’m going to put a black guy against a black guy,’ but the guy he picked was the wrong black guy. ”
Political commentator Ashley Allison said, “I think if you are Herschel Walker, you are an insult to the black voters of Georgia. And honestly, I mean, I’m not a Republican, but it would be an insult to me as a Republican to think that this is the type of person that I actually want to send to the United States Senate.”

He represents the black community, so many women, so little time. Bill Clinton was loved for the same reason. WHAT is the problem?
“Van Jones: Trump Picking Herschel Walker Was ‘Insult to the Black Community’”
Oh, please. Van Jones would have said that about ANYBODY Trump picked, black or white.
you mean the “black community” you play like a fiddle?
Van Jones is so pro black he married a white woman.
Jones is an insult to black communities.
Had Trump not picked him it would have been called racist .
The only thing I can figure out about the black community and its desire for socialism is that, they care more about impoverishing white people through confiscatory taxes than they do about building up their own communities.
They will gladly sit in a rubbled inner city, as long as they can bring whites down to their level instead of working to build up their own communities.
People like Vanny are absolute kooks. Everything is about skin.
But Fetterman is ok? And how about FJB?
Did the democrats steal the election again?
My GOD - the utter hate and insanity from these people.
None are a racist as the democrats. Especially black democrats who would gladly whip the blacks who escape the plantation.
(*) This was how Ebony magazine described Clarence Thomas when he was nominated to the USSC.
Not black enough for you Mr. Jones?
No, Jones — you’re the insult — ya racist POS
Van Jones wouldn’t say that if Walker was a like minded Communist.

He is also responsible for the spike in prices of used car sales. Thanks for “Hoopties for Hybrids”.
