Republican operative Scott Jennings understands that.
After Donald Trump won the presidential election, Jennings said on a CNN panel that Trump's decisive victory was not only about his mission to “Make America Great Again,” but also about the traditional He said it was also a scathing indictment of the media and the “political information complex.''
“I interpret tonight's result as just regular old working-class American revenge.”
“We've been sitting here for the last few weeks and the story that's being portrayed is not true,” Jennings said.
“We were told Puerto Rico was going to change elections. Liz Cheney, Nikki Haley voters, women lying to their husbands. Before that, it was Tim Walz and camo hats.” he continued. “We were being told every night that these things and these gimmicks were somehow going to push Mr. Harris over the line, and we were ignoring the basics: inflation; People feel like they can't do anything but tread water. That's the basics of elections.”
Jennings suggested the recipe for a broken media ecosystem is humble pie.
“…For all of us who do this on a daily basis, we have to figure out a way to understand, speak and listen to half the country who stood up tonight and said 'we.'” Enough is enough. ” explained Jennings.
Importantly, Jennings tried to get his fellow CNN panelists, who sat in silence, to understand why Trump won and Kamala Harris lost.
“I interpret tonight's outcome as the revenge of just a regular old working-class American, an anonymous American who has been broken, insulted, and looked down upon,” he said.
“They're not trash. They're not Nazis,” he explained. “These are normal people who get up every day, go to work, and try to make a better life for their children, and when they complain about being hurt, they feel like they're being told to shut up. ” in their lives. ”
Unfortunately, Jennings' colleagues didn't listen.
Despite his pleas for understanding, Van Jones and David Axelrod responded by insisting that there is validity to claims that Trump is an authoritarian and a fascist. Ta.
Clearly, more than one American is against this.
