CNN Host Brutal Harris Takedown Goes Viral

CNN conservative commentator Scott Jennings gained widespread attention after confronting Democrats with the “glaring” issue they face with Vice President Kamala Harris being on the 2024 ticket.

“The gaffe that I still see in all of these speeches, as good as they were, is that she’s in the White House right now. Democrats have controlled the White House for 12 of the last 16 years,” Jennings said on. “all the talk about divisions and problems in the country and people are hurting, Democrats have mostly controlled this country…. and somehow it’s still all [former President] Trump’s fault and somehow she hasn’t been at the center of it,” he continued.  So to me, that’s still the glaring hole of this campaign that hasn’t yet been solved at this convention. How do you explain all the problems that will be solved, by the person who is currently in there, for the past 3.5 years, that is supposed to already be working on solving them?” he asked.

Wow…just wow.

Look at the faces on the CNN panel as a huge truth bomb is dropped.

The political commentator’s critique emerged during a wave of enthusiasm from liberal commentators on the network who were praising the speeches delivered by former President Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama that night.

During their time on stage, the Obamas criticized the GOP nominee and drew a sharp contrast between Trump’s presidency and what a Harris-led administration might look like.

Jennings’ cautionary remarks about the risks of Harris, the sitting vice president, placing blame on Trump for the ongoing issues of the current administration quickly went viral on social media. A clip of the CNN segment garnered over 2 million views on Wednesday.

Since President Biden announced his withdrawal from the 2024 race, Kamala Harris has experienced a surge in positive media coverage, which has coincided with an increase in her approval ratings.

A recent poll from The Associated Press revealed that 48% of Americans now hold a very or somewhat favorable view of Harris, an improvement from 39% earlier this year.

SCOTT JENNINGS: “Something Walz does that's so weird to me — he attacks JD Vance for going to Yale. I don't understand this. JD grew up poor and worked hard to get an education… I don't get what he's trying to communicate to every small-town, poor kid out there.” pic.twitter.com/cB6UESUvHi

A study conducted by the conservative Media Research Center found that media coverage of Harris has been 84% positive, in stark contrast to former President Trump, whose coverage has been 89% negative. The MRC’s analysis focused on comments from reporters, anchors, and other guests on NBC News, ABC News, and CBS News evening programs since July 21.
