David Hogg Rips CNN’s Scott Jennings for Lecturing Viewers About ‘Affordability’ While Wearing a Rolex
Former DNC Vice Chair David Hogg criticized CNN senior political commentator Scott Jennings on Monday for lecturing viewers about “affordability” — while wearing a Rolex.
During a discussion on CNN NewsNight about New York City Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, Jennings said, “Look, he’s probably gonna win. It’s a Democrat town and they’re gonna elect a socialist to run the financial capital of the world.”
Turning to Hogg, Jennings remarked, “I mean, you know, you gave him 300 grand. That’s interesting, that’s probably the only 300 non-Islamo Marxist grand that he got.”
“They actually have a public financing system for their elections in New York,” Hogg replied:
And honestly, I think part of the reason he’s so powerful is because people are tired of being lectured by men with Rolexes on CNN about affordability in this country. That’s the real reason he is resonating right now because he has a clear message that actually says, “This is what I plan to do,” and the party– I don’t think this is about going to the left or the right, to be honest with you. Do I agree with Zohran much more than a lot of other Democrats in our party? Certainly. But I think we need to meet voters where they’re at in their districts.
After Jennings questioned, “But you want a socialist future for your party?” Hogg concluded, “I want a future where everybody has healthcare and people can afford a good life.”
