Van Jones: Walz Pick ‘Helps’ with ‘Genocide Joe’ Crowd
Breitbart ^ | 08/06/2024 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 08/06/2024 8:55:48 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Tuesday’s broadcast of “CNN Newsroom,” CNN Senior Political Commentator Van Jones reacted to 2024 Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris’ selection of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) as her running mate by saying that there are “young people who are concerned about Gaza. You have a lot of Muslims and Arabs and others, they have not felt seen by the Biden administration. You started hearing that Genocide Joe, that was building, that was building and so those folks needed to have a candidate that they could feel comfortable with. This helps them in that regard.”

Jones began by saying that the Walz pick “extends the honeymoon, a lot of people are excited, but it’s not all one way. You do have the other side of this thing, which is, first of all, what worries me is you see a lot of relief from the conservatives. They were scared of Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-PA), the [conservatives]. They were scared of a Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ). They thought that would help define Kamala more to the middle. You see a lot of rejoicing on the right. That’s not good. … I think if you’re a young Muslim or a young Arab or someone who’s concerned about Gaza, it gives you a reason to stay excited about Kamala, because that was going to be hard for the party to digest. So, you’ve got a party now trying to figure out, is this good, is this bad, what does it mean for the young people, do they stay excited?”

All this does is prove once and for all that the Dem party hates Jews and hates Israel..Trump should come out and say “If you are an American Jew, the Dem party does NOT stand with you, they stand with Hamas and Hezbollah..if you want a save and secure Israel, vote for me”

The big problem for the “Democratic” Party is that the whites in the party leadership are dying off. Once the while old guard goes to the happy hunting grounds the Klan with a Tan will have a harder time hiding its true face.

Trump is "America First". Besides, the Jews believe that it is a heretical action to vote for the Republican Party.

Liberals of all stripes love ambiguity, because it fully supports their main philosophical pillar of “Everything is relative, to what we/I believe, this moment.” They approach laws to undo those that are absolute and to re-imagine (redefine meaning(s) of) those same laws, or create new ones that fully support only their view.

The only absolute for liberals is that anyone else is not just wrong, but should likely be in jail or dead.

Great pick for Trump. Nobody has heard of the guy. Harris/Waltz? Most people won't be able to associate a name with a face.

But this isn't the final pick. It's going to be big Mike coming out of the convention. She/He checks all the leftist boxes...black, far left and the Obama brand.

That’s an awfully big stretch at this point. Especially since Obama has openly endorsed Kamala and she is more/less the nominee. Two switcheroos like that would make the Dems seem very unorganized.

Democrats are simply trying to prevent a down balllt massacre. They know the White House is lost…

Every move since removing Biden is about trying to solidify and motivate the base because they were staining at a 1974 style drubbing downballot…

They can claim there is a path to the WH but they know there isn’t

Yup. If you really listen to what Van Jones is saying, he is saying that the Leftist base will never be comfortable with a Jew on the national ticket because of Israel. Meanwhile, the people who really want to commit genocide (Arab Muslims), get catered to.

Unfortunately, though many Jews are wiseing up, all too many will still tune this out.

Gee, I wonder if it’s possible when the Democrats have their convention it’s found out Kanmala can’t be elected President and another savior of our Democracy, actually a Constitutional Republic, steps up to save us?

I suspect that in his rabid knee jerk reaction to a perceived critique of Trump (which for some on FR will be met with fire and brimstone) he posted to the wrong comment.

Harris apparently told Walz that they “Are the underdog” in this election..if thats true, than all these polls are utter BS, Harris is losing and they know it

According to every poll I’ve seen, left wing lunatics, AKA as progressives, make up about 6% of the electorate.

If they need Walz to nail down the lunatic progressive vote, the rats are in deep trouble.

I disagree. I think it is their election to lose. Especially with all the fraud they’ve got planned.

From what someone said on twitter this morning, she was made aware of the phone call between Harris and Walz, she called the ticket the “Underdog” ticket..which means the polls are BOGUS
