CNN’s Van Jones Applauds As Bill Maher Trashes Kamala Harris For 2 Solid Minutes
CNN’s Van Jones applauded and laughed as comedian and pundit Bill Maher trashed former Vice President Kamala Harris for a solid two minutes.
On Friday night’s edition of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, the interview guest was Louis C.K., Emmy® Award-winning writer, actor, director, comedian, and author of the upcoming novel “Ingram.”
The panel guests were Van Jones, CNN political commentator and founder of Dream Machine Innovation Lab and Rapport; and Thomas Friedman, New York Times columnist and Pulitzer Prize-winning author.
During his “New Rules” segment, Maher devoted several minutes to characterizing the former VP’s book as a “victim” narrative, earning agreeable cutaways to Jones:
BILL MAHER: Kamala Harris’s new memoir of the 24 election is called 107 Days, but it should have been called Everyone Sucks But Me. 107 Days is a victim’s title because, get it, she only had 107 days to win.
Yeah, and a billion and a half dollars and a built-in army of about 75 million people who’d vote for any human adjacent life form that wasn’t Trump.
But in 107 days nothing is ever Kamala’s fault.
Biden lets her down by not stepping down sooner. Pouty face emoji. Gavin Newsom, he was asked for his endorsement, but texted, Hiking will call back. But then never did.
And then he didn’t even ask her to prom.
America, America itself, lets Kamala down by not being ready for the running mate she really wanted, Pete Buttigieg, so she’s stuck with the Home Depot paint salesman. And the rest is herstory.
Poor Kamala, we made her the star of a rom-com and didn’t even give her a gay best friend.
Kamala writes that on election night, when it was clear she’d lost, an aide peeled the words Madam President off the cupcakes before handing them out.
Oh jeez, that’s like a scene from Bridget Jones Runs for President.
