CNN’s Van Jones calls Black model’s speech at RNC ‘most dangerous’ for Democrats
Fox News ^ | July 17, 2024 | Gabriel Hays

CNN senior political commentator Van Jones warned that TV personality and model Amber Rose’s address to the Republican National Convention in support of former President Trump was the "most dangerous speech" for the Democratic Party.

The pundit expressed trepidation over the fact that Rose, a person of color with mainstream fame, spoke at the RNC, noting that she’s appealing to people in liberal circles who may be frustrated with Democratic policies.

"That was probably the most dangerous speech for the Democratic coalition," Jones said about Rose’s speech while covering the first night of the convention in Milwaukee.......

"I realize Donald Trump and his supporters don’t care if you’re Black, White, gay or straight, it’s all love. And that’s when it hit me, these are my people. This is where I belong," she said in her speech.

Jones remarked, "That is a young woman of color. She’s describing the experience a lot of people have, feeling that maybe if you’re around too many liberals you might get criticized too much, or you might not be able to speak your mind. And she spoke to it really well."

How dare the Republican Party expand its base! It’s an outrage!

Not RFKJ. His reckless, entitled, 30 year old son. RFKJ apologized that he should have told the videographer to turn off the camera when the call came in.

That mixed ancestry sure created a beautiful woman. I always find it sad that so many naturally beautiful women like to uglify themselves with tats and piercings.

“I loved the part where she talked about her discussion with her dad about racism.”

Smart dad. “Prove it.”

Alot of you are missing the point about Van’s comments:

Amber has 24.3 MILLION Instagram followers, AOC has 8 million. To put this into context, you take CNN/MSNBC/Fox, ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, the NY Times, the WSJ and the Wash Post COMBINED and they reach HALF of that number. Her speech will be seen OVER and OVER by anyone who goes to her IG, which will likely have her speech PINNED to the top. At Least Van Jones gets that!

It’s not about RACE, it’s about REACH!

She ain’t black, man. Doesn’t she know it’s not “all love”. It’s all suspicion, hostility and mendacity!

God I wish Rush Limbaugh was here right now. So much history taking place in front of our eyes, and the man cannot comment on any of it.

Zackly. Her speech is what demonicRATS consider “violent rhetoric”.

Religious faith, most traditional values, ending illegal immigration, seriously cutting legal immigration, replacing current ‘free trade’ agreements with trade policies that protect American jobs & industry & changing our emphasis to bringing good paying jobs back to all American communities- those issueswould be vote getters as well! 😉
