CNN's Van Jones notes 'virus stopped Biden' but 'a bullet couldn't stop Trump'
Fox News ^ | July 18, 2024 | Lindsay Kornick

CNN’s Van Jones said the differences between former President Trump and President Biden couldn’t be starker after Biden came down with COVID-19 Wednesday.

The political commentator took part in a panel covering the Republican National Convention as news broke about the president testing positive for COVID-19 and having to quarantine. This announcement came as more and more high-profile Democrats have reportedly called on Biden to leave the presidential race.

Biden's diagnosis showed a clear sign of weakness compared to the former president recently surviving an assassination attempt, according to the former Obama adviser.

"There are a lot of people who want Biden to stay in. A lot of those people pointing out that still grassroots love Joe Biden, but everybody doesn’t agree. But today is a terrible day. If you pull back and look at this thing: strength versus weakness. A bullet couldn‘t stop Trump. A virus just stopped Biden," Jones said.

He added, "You‘ve got the nominees of [the Republican] party getting their butts kissed. Biden‘s getting his butt kicked by his own party. The Democrats are coming apart. The Republicans are coming together. That‘s what‘s happening. And at some point, this [Democratic] party has to look at the reality of that and move."

Van is in crisis.

He’s on the wrong side and always has been.

His supports the side oppressing his community.

He’s a pos and he knows it.

Will he turn toward the light and away from the $$$?

Don’t count on it.

The virus has not stopped Biden (yet).

I wish him a speedy, or maybe slow, recovery.

We need him there so that he can belligerently lose to Donald Trump while his own people are calling for him to step aside.

The longer Biden stays in the race, the worse it becomes for Democrats. That's why they're trying to get him out in any way possible. Covid--really?

Hang in there, Joe. No one is a better loser than you.

As he should, this spewer of Communist manipulation and BLM bullcrap! Yes, and soon out of a mouth job- since he is actually incompetent. Never forget his pal who started BLM out of MD (a catholic monastery of real lefties, Fr. Pfleuger types, and also history of a station on the underground railroad so claimed, fwiw).

BLM was always, always a front for the democrats—fundraising button on their page went directly to ActBlue- democrat major funder. So they and antiFA were both storm trooper lefties for the demonrat party.

Perhaps they used a PCR test, which can be set to detect an extremely small amount of something in order to claim that it is Covid. Extreme use of this test is one of the ways that the Covid scare was inflicted on the world in the beginning. We were never informed of the settings used on the PCR test in various places.

Don't go, Joe.

America needs you to set things right and lose to Donald Trump.

I'm sending Old Joe a "Get well soon" card. I sincerely hope that he recovers to continue his disastrous campaign.

I sometimes wonder if Jones is going to finally give up and become a Trumper.

If you think that the head coach of your favorite team should be fired, do you stop rooting for them?

Covid didn’t stop Trump either.
