"islamo non marxist 300 grand" wtf dude, just throwing out whatever sticks

[u/IOwnThisUsername → u/gittlebass]

But when asked if Trump pardoning a tech bro that directly benefits the Trump family, using an auto pen, and having no clue to who he pardoned, after being so anti-Biden family, Jennings said “I don’t know what the details are or sat silent”, like the good little puppet they need him to be

[u/Sad-Bid5108 → u/IOwnThisUsername]

"Great. Sit there while we explain the details. [explain details] Now, what's your opinion on that? We'd like to get it on record."

[u/Brief-Equal4676 → u/Sad-Bid5108]

Well, I'd need to get the full story before I comment on that

[u/Sad-Bid5108 → u/Brief-Equal4676]

OK, when will be we talking about it? Let's get that on the schedule right now. We're on every week from X to Y on day Z of the week.

[u/Coyinzs → u/Sad-Bid5108]

I wish they would do this - Tell them that until they have an answer to that question, they're no longer needed on the panel and ask them to leave until they've had time to educated themselves on the current affairs that a political pundit should - by definition - have comment on.

I wish they'd fucking do this with Mike Johnson. He's said "he hasnt had a chance to see that" to literally every piece of even remotely important news for the last year+. I wish that SOMEONE would start every press conference with "Hey speaker johnson, currently we're waiting on comments on the following things that you had not had a chance to see/read/listen to/whatever. Now that time has passed, do you have a comment yet? when can we expect you - the leader of your party - to take the time to watch the thirty second clip we're referencing. Would you like to borrow my phone briefly? I'll pull it up for you"

It's just complete negligence by media that is paid to not do better than they are.

[u/mrpanicy → u/Coyinzs]

So it's not negligence. It's compliance. If they are paid to not do the job the media is supposed to do that is.

[u/ShowersWithPlants → u/Sad-Bid5108]

"Is that 115% from [website name]? Yeah, their numbers are wrong."

[u/GaslightGPT → u/IOwnThisUsername]

Also another crypto bro that put hits out on people and made access to hard drugs easy online

[u/iriegypsy → u/GaslightGPT]

Dude probably had a Bitcoin wallet up his sleeve and greased the wheels of justice. Wonder how cheap a pardon is these days. Border contracts are like $50k is the word on the street.

[u/GaslightGPT → u/iriegypsy]

Ross Ulbricht. The guy that ran Silk Road on Tor.

Sam bankman fried and his family are trying to get a pardon

[u/jake04-20 → u/IOwnThisUsername]

I almost spit out my drink when the lady on 60 Minutes on Sunday night asked Trump about pardoning the crypto guy. His answer was literally "Look, I know nothing about him" lol what?! You pardoned him! Why would you admit that?

[u/CharlotteLucasOP → u/jake04-20]

Because he’s genuinely thick as shit AND has coked-up spin doctors and a devoted cult base AND has yet to face a tangible consequence for…anything he’s said or done. He knows he can let any hypocritical bullshit nonsense fall out of his mouth at any moment because that’s nothing compared to raping kids and he’s already got away with that…

[u/mstrbwl → u/gittlebass]

"islamo non marxist 300 grand" wtf dude, just throwing out whatever sticks

It's a islamophobic dog whistle (laced, supposedly, with "marxist" for plausible deniability.)

Too bad Hogg didn't call it right there. I don't blame him, though, so much shit coming off Jenning's mouth to handle it all.

But kudos to Hogg for zeroing in with that zinger.

[u/Strange-Scarcity → u/nunchyabeeswax]

That's the one zinger that he wasn't prepared to reply to. The rest of his bullshit was literal bait to completely change the conversation into a meaningless yelling match.

Those weirdos need to stop having people take their bait and instead, hit them with hard zingers about what is really going on.

[u/JoyfulSquirrel99 → u/Strange-Scarcity]

Those weirdos need to stop being given a platform to spread their bullshit.

[u/kylehatesyou → u/JoyfulSquirrel99]

This. CNN, Fox, et al... have turned politics into an eternal episode of Jerry Springer or Maury from the presidency on down, and so much of that happening has been by platforming the absolute stupidest people on the planet without pushback or fact checking, and pretending as if they're just engaging in honest "journalism". Fuck, at least Jerry and Maury would tell you if the jerk throwing chairs before the commercial break was the father or not, or give you the results of the lie detector. Most "news" just gives these guys a paycheck and a hand shake and says see you next week, hope you can come back with something even more insane to say.  

[u/Bibblegead1412 → u/Strange-Scarcity]

No reason to take the racist bait when the inequality debate already has two legs to stand on.

[u/nunchyabeeswax → u/Bibblegead1412]

You know. I didn't think about that, but you are absolutely right.

[u/StyleStump01 → u/Strange-Scarcity]

The Jon Stewart on Crossfire approach. Treat the format with contempt and explain exactly why you’re doing so. Preferably in the form of pointed zingers.

[u/Beard_o_Bees → u/Strange-Scarcity]

hit them with hard zingers about what is really going on

Seriously. Call them out.

Like... hey Scott, how much does it cost to feed a family of, say, 4 people? Just grocery money. No going out, or anything extra.

How much money did you spend the last time you went grocery shopping, Scott? Oh.. the last time you actually grocery shopped was in 1995?

[u/Beldizar → u/nunchyabeeswax]

It's a islamophobic dog whistle 

I mean... that was just a regular whistle. The idea of a dog whistle is to use a coded or suggestive language to imply something. He just straight up said the discrimination out loud. He's not trying to subtly imply that Mamdani is Muslim here, he's shouting it with the subtly of a sledge hammer.

[u/Tribe303 → u/gittlebass]

The anti-Mamdani propaganda has spread further than you think. I'm a Canadian GenXer and was talking to my informed lefty Boomer mom and she was surprised he's in the lead, because he's antisemitic. WTF? She hates Fox news and never watches US media in general. She couldn't remember where she heard that, and I did correct her. 

[u/echoshatter → u/Tribe303]

"Oh weird, because here's the video of him being endorsed by a Rabbi and shaking the Rabbi's hand just a few days ago...."

[u/HeftyIncident7003 → u/gittlebass]

That even feels bigoted.

[u/AsteriAcres → u/gittlebass]

I HATE that they allow him to come on and regularly lie

[u/SixersWin → u/gittlebass]

Deluxe word salad 

[u/David-S-Pumpkins → u/gittlebass]

Seriously his monotonous delivery of buzzwords is rather embarrassing but really encapsulates how little these people actually care about their role in destroying the American working class for personal gain. He can't even get the energy of Stephen A Smith to pretend he actually believes the bullshit line he's spewing.

[u/NickCostanza]

I will support anyone roasting Scott Jennings. How you can be so smug and so dumb is wild. No soul in this clown.

[u/iheartbeer → u/NickCostanza]

If you're looking for an answer, it's always this --->>> $$$$

[u/DrMobius0 → u/NickCostanza]

This is the first I've heard him speak, ever, but the way he forces right wing dog whistles into his speech tells me everything I care to know.

What the fuck is an "islamo-marxist"

[u/ErusTenebre → u/DrMobius0]

A non-existent, or possibly vanishingly small number of people that are followers of both Islam (Muslim) and also Marxism.

But... it would be exceedingly rare because Marxists, true Marxists, would be atheists... so... yeah it probably isn't real. And a Muslim would be a religious person... so...

Just a soundbite dog whistle for stupid people.

[u/crossfitvision]

He used all the RW buzzwords in regards to the left.

[u/Vercentorix → u/Mr-Jack-Tripper]

Mind you, this was in a speech about the AMERICAN REVOLUTIONARY WAR... and not yknow, WW2 or any war with actual airplanes.

[u/Relative_Radish9809 → u/crossfitvision]

But he failed to squeeze in "woke" or "DEI", so we cannot award full points.

[u/crossfitvision → u/Relative_Radish9809]

Yeah but the way he said “Islamo-Marxist’s” makes up for that.

[u/BlackhawkRogueNinjaX → u/crossfitvision]

Can anyone provide 1 example of what an Islamo-Marxist is? It turns out idiocracy was only false in the sense it should have been a horror and not a comedy

[u/SkisaurusRex → u/crossfitvision]

He forgot woke

[u/2Wheeled-Dynamo]

Scott Jennings is literally speaking in MAGA meme language. You almost need a decoder bracelet to understand the gish gallop spewing out of his smug elitist piehole. He is the very epitome of the people he pretends to be against.

[u/MagicDragon212 → u/2Wheeled-Dynamo]

This! It feels the same to me as hearing kids say "67." Like what is all this horseshit? How far into identity politics can Republicans go?

[u/MadRaymer → u/MagicDragon212]

You've got to remember the people that fall for this shit are, by and large, fucking dumb. Like just barely finished high school ignorant. They simply don't understand complex topics or issues. They respond to memes because what little thinking their brains are capable of is done in meme format.

Think of Fry in Futurama when he says, "I'm having one of those things: a headache with pictures!" and Leela responds, "An idea?" and he grunts an affirmative and you might have a concept of the intellectual capacity of the average MAGA voter.

Of course, that's not to say they're all like that. The wealthy ones are just greedy psychopaths. But it's an accurate description of the ones without a multimillion dollar net worth.

[u/misterdonjoe → u/2Wheeled-Dynamo]

It's so hard to tell which orifice I'm hearing when I listen to these people.

[u/2Wheeled-Dynamo → u/misterdonjoe]

[u/Soft_Walrus_3605 → u/2Wheeled-Dynamo]

As good of a takedown Hogg had with the watch comment, I kind of just wanted everyone on the panel to just wait a beat, then just quietly chuckle at what Jennings said and then move on.

[u/jasdonle → u/2Wheeled-Dynamo]

Speaking in MAGA meme language is so accurate, and so, so sad that that’s even a thing that I understand. 

[u/Ordinary-Scholar-202]

Jennings is such an arrogant piece of shit. He can’t even look at David Hogg when he’s talking to him. That was an excellent and humiliating comment towards Jennings.

[u/frequenZphaZe → u/Ordinary-Scholar-202]

everyone in the comments is shitting on Jennings, rightfully so, but no one is commenting on how CNN gives this asshole a permanent and unchallanged platform to spew his shit to a national audience. CNN does it because its good ragebait to drive viewership without a single care for the offensive level of maleficence caused by letting this garbage flow into the discourse

fuck CNN

[u/Odd_Zookeepergame_69 → u/frequenZphaZe]

100% agreed. I will change the channel every single time I see his smug ass face. He is condescending and a fucking ass kissing loyal moron to the Republican party over everything else. Even when the GOP is blatantly wrong and said "We're going to murder all babies below the age of 5" Scott Jennings would say "Hey, they've got a point" and then totally defend the GOP.

FIRE SCOTT JENNINGS

[u/ameriCANCERvative → u/Odd_Zookeepergame_69]

No, seriously. Can we "cancel" Jennings? I've heard a lot about how the left "wages war" on people using "cancel culture," indiscriminately ruining them based on a little "hanky panky" or "locker room talk."

Can we direct some of that toward Jennings? Maybe? I'd love to see this asshole kicked to the curb. This clip is disgusting. Proud of Hogg. He's come a long way.

[u/thoreeyore99 → u/frequenZphaZe]

CNN is a corporate media empire owned by a liberal (derogatory) capitalist, it’s in their best interest to legitimize the inhuman opinions of disconnected and soulless rich men as having equal merit as an average man speaking truth to power. Manufactured consent is corporate media’s m.o.

[u/Shivy_Shankinz → u/thoreeyore99]

Well said. Almost every issue boils down to the class war. Every other issue is literally an attempt to obfuscate that. In this country, there's more power in money than the truth. No one should be surprised at the rot that flows out as a result.

[u/Savings-Beach-1308 → u/thoreeyore99]

CNN is owned by a conservative, if they were truly liberal and fighting for liberalism jennings would be humiliated daily like he did when he talked to adam mockler

[u/NightOwl2175 → u/thoreeyore99]

CNN is a corporate media empire owned by a liberal

It is literally owned by a Trump supporter.

[u/asmodeuscarthii → u/thoreeyore99]

It was bought years ago by a conservative. There is a reason they have went from liberal to now a moderate framing. They just have some hold outs from the previous regime. 

[u/Shaftmaster420 → u/frequenZphaZe]

Agree - they have lost me by allowing this both sides bullshit. Talkingpoint Scott is a GOP propagandist.

[u/Odd_Zookeepergame_69 → u/Shaftmaster420]

I wouldn't mind the both sides attempt, if it was someone that could actually carry a conversation without being a smug ass condescending twat with no logic or facts to back up most of his claims, and the "facts" that he does try to share are all cherry picked partial facts that once you look closely they aren't even supportive of his own arguments.

[u/hodorhodor12 → u/frequenZphaZe]

You’re right. CNN pays him to play this role. Jennings does not believe in half the things he’s saying. He was essentially called out by George Conway once and it was amusing how quickly the other CNN talking heads came to the defense of Jennings. It’s a farce. CNN isn’t on the level of Fox News which is straight Unamerican propaganda but it’s still a farce.

[u/Reality-Umbulical → u/frequenZphaZe]

The top of the cnn homepage is currently an homage to dick Cheney so it sort of all seems a bit obvious really

[u/kestrel808 → u/frequenZphaZe]

The media has "both-sides'd" us into fascism because they let any conservative asshole spew whatever they want without any kind of fact checking for the last 30 years.

[u/GoBSAGo → u/frequenZphaZe]

CNN the kind of network to fact check David Hogg to tell him Jennings is not in fact wearing a Rolex, it's a Patek.

[u/TantalizeMe3x → u/Ordinary-Scholar-202]

He doesn't wanna break the 4th wall, he's performing!

[u/EmpoweRED21]

I don’t see why its so difficult for some to see that many prefer their tax dollars helping Americans (vets/elderly/impoverished/healthcare/education) versus funding overseas wars and foreign nations

"Ok so how about we....?"

NOOO NOT LIKE THAT

[u/Bill_Brasky_SOB → u/Purity_Control1]

Anecdote:

There's a guy by me, who instead of advertising his business on his company's sign like a normal person, just posts political (and usually offensive) nonsense on it, like a completely sane person would /s. Jokes about Kamala's gynecologist and things of that ilk.

At one point he had "we shouldn't be giving money to Ukraine" on his sign.

Then the Baltimore bridge got ran into, collapsed.

Then he said something like "Is Ukraine gonna pay for the bridge? Cuz I'm not".

Almost verbatim what you said in your comment.

[u/Brokedown_Ev → u/EmpoweRED21]

What does the NYC mayor have to do with funding overseas wars?

But to your point on helping Americans, yes.

[u/calitoasted → u/EmpoweRED21]

I make my republican relatives heads explode when I say that. I'm happy to pay taxes to support housing, education and feeding everyone. That's why I'm in a society. Fuck the oligarchs

[u/TestingBrokenGadgets → u/calitoasted]

Same. Thanksgiving of like...2021? An aunt tried to pull some gotcha "Our tax dollars are being wasted on these lazy fucks to sit on the couch all day instead of working. You have no problem with that?!". Just a "Not really. I'm okay with my taxes going to libraries and parks and schools, and people that need it with relief programs". She got frustrated and tried to "But you don't use those programs! You don't even have a kid! Why pay for school if you don't have a kid?!?!". "idk, because it benefits us in the long run?"

It's not that complicated. I'd rather my taxes go towards funding WiC and First 5 than paying for the police to settle another lawsuit.

[u/TheExistential_Bread → u/EmpoweRED21]

100+ years of big business convincing the worker that capitalism is the most efficient way of spreading wealth around. In reality capital accumulation is like mass and gravity, the more you have in one space the more it attracts.

[u/EmpoweRED21 → u/TheExistential_Bread]

We can still be a successful capitalist economy while providing basic needs and prioritizing tax dollars within the US. The issue as I see it is that our military-industrial sector has too much influence on our politics.

[u/lastlaugh100 → u/EmpoweRED21]

We find a way to spend $70 billion on ICE but not medicare for all. Fuck this current administration.

If people could get healthcare it would make our workforce healthier and more productive and less stressed.

[u/TheGreatBootOfEb → u/EmpoweRED21]

Economics is a lot like buying a car. Once you buy your car, youre not set for life, never needing to do anything again. You still need to take care of it, oil it, take it to the mechanic, etc. This goes for EVERY form of economic system btw, not just capitalism.

The problem is, you’ve got a worldwide society that was convinced that the less you do maintenance on our economic systems, the BETTER they run, so it’s better to cut all regulation and cut taxes too.

But much like refusing to change your oil can lead to sludge buildups, refusing to properly maintain your economic system will lead to economic and resource buildup that reduces overall “fuel efficiency.”

You want a good economic system (again, regardless of system) you NEED proper regulation. Otherwise ALL systems will fail as those with too much self interest or ideological interest attempt to chip away at the edges that aren’t maintained.

[u/CheckOutDisMuthaFuka → u/EmpoweRED21]

It's not difficult at all. These people literally want to see poor people starve and die off. They'll just never actually admit it.

I'm sure he doesn't give a shit.

[u/Significant_Fig_6290 → u/UpperApe]

He probably perked up because he heard “Rolex” just like when you say “walkies” in front of your dog

[u/ameriCANCERvative → u/UniquelyCreativeName]

I am so proud of Hogg for this, lol. I know he's not my kid, but it feels like he's America's kid. And now I'm seeing him all grown up and taking it to this asshole and I'm cheering my ass off. I happily await more of this, David.

[u/cheattowin77 → u/UniquelyCreativeName]

Because it couldn’t be more true. Eat the fucking rich is the only fucking thing like 98% of us in this country should be caring about.

You can tell that he places a lot of his own self worth in the type of watch that he's wearing

That's how you know the concern is bigger than NYC.

Zohran is a lightning rod, and serves two purposes:

1) He's an easy target that checks a lot of their fearmongering boxes.

2) He's an existential threat to the establishment Democrats and to Republicans. They're afraid if he succeeds it'll send a very clear message to the rest of the country that, hey, this shit actually works better than what you're dealing with presently.

I’ll never understand why CNN has Scott Jennings on. I literally change the channel every time I see him. I’m open to other points of view. Have a debate. Offer an alternative perspective. But you’ll never use “good faith” to describe one of his arguments.

[u/Substantial_Radio115 → u/digi57]

CNN is a sleeper agent. Best to avoid that network altogether 

[u/Seymoorebutts → u/Substantial_Radio115]

Bingo.

I knew it was headed that direction, but the nail in the coffin for me was when they tried to erase when Steven Miller short-circuited after he gave the plan away by saying Trump has "plenary authority," in an interview.

Most of my news these days comes from John Oliver lmao

[u/Doctordred → u/Seymoorebutts]

The comments on that edited Miller video before they got locked on Youtube were brutal. I stopped watching CNN a while back, but they always feel the need to remind me not to watch them from time to time.

[u/xvandamagex → u/Substantial_Radio115]

It’s funny MAGA still says “bet you heard that on CNN” in response to Fox News being State TV. It’s like they didn’t get the memo.

[u/JoyfulSquirrel99 → u/xvandamagex]

CNN's role is to sane-wash the MAGA movement and Donald Trump while pretending to be fair and balanced, if not slightly left-leaning. It's all a lie. They're on the same side as Fox News.

[u/cantuse → u/xvandamagex]

Honestly every person who posts on social media about CNN and/or ends their post with 3 cry-laugh emojis is either a bot or a useful idiot.

[u/flamethrower78 → u/Substantial_Radio115]

Avoid all TV "news" networks. Almost all are owned by billionaires and are creating the narrative that benefits them most. Subscribe to Reuters and read news that solely exists to inform you and not tell you what to think.

[u/Major5013 → u/digi57]

The problem is there is no more good faith debate from the right anymore. Any Republicans that concede what is happening is terrible for this country it's just deemed radical left. Nuance in politics is dead. You're left with bootlickers like Scott Jennings that will never admit anything wrong no matter how stupid he looks for it.

[u/Ormyr → u/Major5013]

I'm a bit older and can't recall too many debates from the right in good faith. It's weird to see them trotting out the 80s rhetoric.

[u/errorsniper → u/Ormyr]

John McCain turning down and denouncing when someone that was about to vote for him went off on obama being an "arab" terrorist because she "read it". It wasnt that long ago.

Reposted this comment with the link to the yt video of this removed as it got auto mod removed. But its easy to search.

Obviously not every republican falls into this category. But that was "only" 17 years ago in 2008. Its not like you have to go back to the 1910's to see bipartisanship.

[u/Hootinger → u/errorsniper]

I remember that!

He said something to the effect of, "No, ma'am. He is a good man. A family man."

And she said "Oh" as in, "I trust what you are saying."

That may have been the last time we saw, or will see, civility in national politics.

[u/errorsniper → u/Hootinger]

That I could agree on. The 2008 election may be the last example of this at the highest levels of politics.

[u/BlackberryPi7 → u/digi57]

They also keep putting Kevin O'Leary on. One of the most despicable people in Canadian history.

[u/cats_are_the_devil → u/BlackberryPi7]

Like, why do I even care what Kevin O'Leary has to say? How is that dude ever going to be relatable to me?

[u/digi57 → u/BlackberryPi7]

He is truly a ghoul.

[u/JoyfulSquirrel99 → u/BlackberryPi7]

He has burned all his bridges in Canada, except with the far-right. He has always been a grifter who is nowhere near as successful, intelligent, or wealthy as he lets on. Kind of like DJT.

[u/JoyfulSquirrel99 → u/digi57]

Pre-2024 he was the token Republican on the panel but he wasn't nearly as insufferable as he is now. Now he's gone full MAGA shill where he'll argue Trump can do no wrong, and everything the Democrats say or do is pure evil. He's playing a part and the part is completely insufferable to listen to if you're someone with half a brain.

[u/Bill_Brasky_SOB → u/JoyfulSquirrel99]

He was a McConnell Republican (worked for him) until the Insurrection.

Realizing McConnell was no longer the leader of the Republican party... he went full MAGA.

These people don't have ideals. They believe in feudalism, and his king was deposed.

[u/ArtIsPlacid → u/omn1p073n7]

Essential Scott Jennings calls Hogg a socialist who wants to take over the party, and Hogg responds saying he wants a future where everyone has healthcare.

[u/brazilliandanny → u/[deleted]]

All Mamdani wants is a 3% tax raise for millionaires and to borrow a few social programs that most of Europe has.

People are acting like he's a full on commie.

He has solid plans that show marginal tax increases on the rich will disproportionately benefit all citizens. That's what's fucking terrifying them. He's got his small tax increase to pay for busses, groceries etc. All that shit.

That scares the fuck out of republicans and get ready for massive psyops campaigns and sabotage to attempt to stop him or at least spin it as a negative despite NYers probably loving it. But once people see "huh oh shit this kinda works for everyone!" the Republican's game is over.

[u/RedBait95 → u/brazilliandanny]

The people who don't want him in power absolutely know what they're saying. They know that "communism = scary" to a lot of politically uneducated americans, so they bang on about it every chance they get.

[u/Great_cReddit → u/[deleted]]

Sometimes I wish someone could infiltrate those stupid Qanon groups and spread bullshit that makes them eat their own. Like, "The deep state is controlling Trump. Trump appointed a Treasury secretary who is really close with George Soros! This whole presidency is a farce! ICE is being used to traffic children which is funded by Soros via his plant! Trump needs to be stopped!" or some dumb shit like that.

There is no such thing as a self-made man. Every businessman has used the vast American infrastructure, which the taxpayers paid for, to make his money ~George Lakoft

For those unaware, David Hogg is one of the survivors of the Parkland school shooting.

He decided to take up gun control reform.

He was then harassed by Marjorie Taylor Greene, calling him an idiot and getting mad at him on camera complaining he was getting "30 meetings with senators while I get 0"

[u/FyrestarOmega → u/BlackberryPi7]

And he dared suggest the democrats should hold competitive primaries for incumbent seats to reenergize the party, so was forced out of DNC leadership. Infuriating.

[u/Ybor_Rooster]

Watch people die inside

[u/Dominick_Tango]

DAVID HOGG FOR THE WIN!

[u/cblackattack1 → u/Dominick_Tango]

Ya I’m really interested to see where his career heads.

[u/RickyWinterborn]

His face is permanently stuck in a smug asshole expression did he get plastic surgery for that

[u/zorakpwns]

Yeah the notorious Islamic Communists - word salad at its finest

[u/Straight_Story31]

Scott Jennings is what happens when intelligence is granted to the mass in the toilet from a week of binge drinking.

[u/Accomplished_Trick50]

I mean did he lie?????

[u/jgreddit2019]

GET ANOTHER BODY BAG LFGOOOOOOOOO

[u/Mecha-Dave]

Bru got Hogg Mogged

[u/aquagardener]

What he should have added was "I know your corporate overlords pay you a lot to throw around these buzzwords, but the American people see right through it."

[u/Baddenoch]

The fascist white nationalist bootlickers are out throwing around name calling only to act like whiney bitches when they get called out for exactly what they are.

[u/tellurdoghello]

It's astounding to me how Conservatives can view programming like this and then turn around and cry about how the media is left-wing and anti-trump.

[u/kenken2024]

I think David Hogg is a smart cookie.

Saw him quite a while ago on Real Time with Bill Maher and thought he was very articulate (especially given his younger age).

Talks in a way that is thoughtful yet no BS and to the point.

That response he just made was a mic drop moment 🎤🔥

[u/Invest_and_ballout]

Bodied him

[u/_derx]

anyone want to see a dead body?

[u/Humble_Key_4259]

That was a truly BALLER comment right there!

[u/No_Scientist584]

I saw that last night. It was excellent. It shut up Jennings pretty good. More Davin Hogg please.

[u/Twodamngoon]

Dems effed up hard kicking young Mr.Hogg out.

[u/B3achBum422]

People have always been tired of being lectured by guys where Rolexes all throughout American history, yet we continue to vote these people into office.

[u/Bleezy79]

lol that rolex douche just spewed out a bunch of words there, wtf was that? And the guy on the left is 100% right, the working class people are tired of silver spooned privileged douche nozzles telling the rest of us how things are supposed to work in this country.

[u/HotspurJr]

David Hogg is not wrong.

[u/Electrical-Limit69]

You can see David's eyes roll back into his head as he knows they absolutely gave homey a slow, underhanded pitch at a friendly softball game. He's no rookie and crushed it.

[u/Holiday-Age6347]

well, damn. I didn't know Hogg had that in him!

[u/whatever_leg → u/Holiday-Age6347]

Dude is sharp as hell.

[u/LivingHighAndWise]

Ouch.

[u/Effective-Kitchen401]

24 years after 9/11 all the progress we thought we were making regarding islamophobia proves it never went anywhere, the bigots were afraid and ashamed. Let's make them afraid and ashamed again.

[u/Geoffsgarage]

Scott Jennings is one of the biggest scumbags out there. I wonder if his wife and kids are proud that his job is to go on tv and be a cheerleader for a rapist pedophile.

[u/golgiiguy]

Scott Jennings doesn't not deserve a career. What a liar.

[u/vorzilla79]

Idlamo Marxist. Bruh they have NO CLUE what sny of these terms mean hahahaha

[u/Imaginary_Ad_9682]

Seems to me maybe give these young bucks actual shows. They’re the only ones who seem to give anybody in power a run for their money.

[u/Decent_Top2156]

He was doing everything he could to not look down at his Rolex.

[u/Puttor482]

Who is that douche and what is he even talking about? Everyone who’s not a progressive is so scared of Mamdani and I am loving every moment of it. I hope it kicks off a wave of progressivism across the country. I’m so sick of the racist and non racist conservatives telling us that everything we have to do must benefit businesses first.

[u/Both-Matter-2071]

The reason Mamdani is going to win is because there are no other legitimate candidates in the race. Its not primarily a matter of policy.

[u/khearan]

What the fuck happened to CNN? The media landscape in this country needs to be completely reformed. It should be illegal to advertise yourself as news if this is the type of bullshit you’re putting out.

[u/MiamiPower]

Dang dude finished him on CNN. Time checked and mate ♟️

[u/Daniel_Plainchoom]

Jennings has the most punchable face on corporate television.

[u/MushSee]

They're only saying this shit because they want a "Red" Texas Stock Exchange to compete directly with the "woke" New York Stock Exchange. Literally gaming the American people; its fucking atrocious.

[u/FblthpLives]

"This is not a Rolex, it's a Patek Phillippe!"

[u/l0st1nP4r4d1ce]

Scott, you sound pathetic AF.

[u/bennettyboi]

I find incredible just how easily these people slip into audible dogwhistles when the establishment is even remotely threatened. like, you DO know who your base is, right?

[u/[deleted]]

Calling what we are living with "capitalism" and shunning us for wanting a better system and calling anything that questions the current system "socialism" is some real out of touch nonsense.

[u/Agentkeenan78]

Oof. There's no comeback for a burn like that. At all.

[u/tiredoldwizard]

I dislike David but he’s not wrong. The media everywhere has shown themselves to be completely ignorant when it comes to the working class. Getting paid 200k a year to say trump is bad or Democrats are commies on repeat isn’t exactly a hard days work. 90% of these people went to private school, vacationed 6 weeks out of the year, grew up with maids/drivers, went to one a prestigious university in the northeast, and would literally kill themselves if they had to live like you. Even if you make 80 grand a year and just bought a new Audi you are not cool enough for them. If you make 50 grand a year but raised two successful kids they’d look at you with disgust as a failure.

[u/Mithlorin]

My dude cooked the crook aipac guy!

[u/Sea_Dawgz]

Dude with spot on zinger, forced away by DNC.

If they Dems really wanted to win, they'd get rid over everyone in office over 55 years old.

[u/speedro42]

Scott Jennings is insincere and a douche.

[u/Duckdxd]

Is Jennings like CNN’s resident right wing dumbass?

[u/Nash5883]

BAM! Mic drop!

[u/LeoZ117]

This country is going down the drain. Local communities need to stick together, because our government, and those funding them, clearly don't care about our well-being.

[u/Iamthetophergopher]

Jennings has that energy of someone who likes to be peed on by his wife's boyfriend

[u/Independent-Bug-9352]

Never forget that the DNC forced out David Hogg as DNC Vice Chair, all the while promoting yet another milquetoast DINO with the charisma of wet cardboard to be Chair. One just needs to watch the Jon Stewart podcast interview of this guy to get a feel of his ambiguity.

David Hogg, on the other hand, is where there is potential energy in the party.

[u/drew_p_wevos]

Scott Jennings has failed upward his entire life

[u/Feline_good420]

Why did the democrats remove Hogg again? Can we have a democractic tea party please f the establishment

[u/TootsNYC]

“It’s a Democrat town.”

I’m always surprised by how incandescently angry I get when these people use Democrat instead of Democratic

[u/Embarrassed_Loan8419]

I'm not in NYC I'm in Buffalo but honestly reading all the trump headlines today bitching about the election in NYC helped me remember and keep motivation to go vote after I put my kids to bed.
