Democratic strategist Van Jones said Monday that former President Trump is “freaked out” that he’s not getting as much press attention as Vice President Harris and is responding by sharpening his rhetoric about the threat he says his political opponents would pose on the country.

“He‘s failing and flailing. Listen, they‘re saying that these are the worst three weeks of his campaign,” Jones, a CNN contributor, said Monday in an interview with Anderson Cooper. “That‘s what the press is saying.”

“This is the year in which he got indicted, convicted, and shot at — and actually hit — by a bullet and none of that to him is as bad as possibly not getting as much attention as Kamala,” he added.

Trump returned to social media platform X Monday for an interview with owner Elon Musk on the Spaces platform. Earlier in the day, he posted a video on X that described the election as “the final battle” and pledged to “liberate America from these villains once and for all.”

Jones freaks out every day that goes by that his name isn’t in the political BS pages.

Imagine the difference in the current state of the race had Trump had the foresight to wait until September to debate Joe Biden.

Just on X after a 3 yr absence that only ended last week, and before the publicity of this interview, Trump has 89 million followers

Kamabla has 13 million followers

Biden after 4 yrs as President, has about 35-38 million followers

Just sayin’

Too much pride. Bannon was telling him to wait and Trump doesn’t want to look weak by not immediately accepting “Anytime, anywhere”

If Kamala is getting a lot of attention, it’s because she’s hiding from interviews and press conferences.

Accidents on the road get most of the attention on the road, which is why the Kamala wreck is also getting a lot of attention.

Imagine the difference if the media were even a little bit fair and honest. Notwithstanding what I said about Trump being too prideful with the debate decision I think they would have found another way out. In the end, all the media had to do to get him out was treat him fairly and give him 3 weeks of scrutiny. They could have done that without the debate and had the same result.

The anytime anywhere mindset is what caused the late June debate, which was a mistake

There’s a big difference between being irritated about something and being “freaked out”.
The freak out is all on the side of the dems and the swamp.
They have thrown every single thing they can think of at Trump and he’s like Superman.
All of their BS just bounces off.
I still can’t believe that they actually tried to kill him, yet it happened and we all saw it.

Van Jones is like Obama.
How did Biden describe Obama?
That he’s “…well spoken and cleans up nice…”.?

Yeah, but he’s still an empty-headed liberal.

Yes. Biden would have remained hidden in his burrow all summer long and the press would have done the same ridiculous fawning they are doing over Harris and the polls would have shown a 8 pt lead for Biden.

Then, when the rodent emerged from his burrow in September to debate Trump, people would have seen the demented fool for what he is.

Things would be SO different.

A CNN “contributor” gets paid about $21 per hour. Get a real job, Van.

Harris is getting attention because she’s a warning to the loss of liberty and the installation of Marxism.

Media omitting her bait free things on a stick that will never happen.

It’s not delusion. He is just sticking to his rehearsed lines in that movie that is “The Harris Campaign”

The line is: Harris is surging.

Meanwhile outside the theatre: Trump gets about a Billion views on X and other simulcast channels.
