Charlamagne tha God to Van Jones: ‘Shut the F*ck up Forever’

CHARLAMAGNE THA GOD: “How is any of that divisive? I personally love that he covered all bases. He talked about working with police, helping people with mental health issues. He talked about helping the homeless, trans people, black people, black women, Jewish people, the Muslim community. Most importantly, he spoke to the working class of all races. Van Jones didn’t like that. He thought it was divisive.”

Jones: “But I think he misses an opportunity. The Mamdani that we saw in the campaign trail, who was a lot more calm, who’s a lot warmer, who was a lot more embracing was not present in that speech. He was almost yelling. That said, he’s very young and he just pulled off something that’s very, very difficult. But I think he missed an opportunity to open himself up tonight, and I think that that will probably cost him going forward.”

CHARLAMAGNE THA GOD: “Man, shut the F up. Okay? There was no opportunity missed. The man just won, and he deserved to take a victory lap. There’s absolutely nothing divisive about calling out bad landlords who take advantage of tenants, calling out billionaires who are corrupt and don’t pay their fair share of taxes, and the administration trying to implement an authoritarian strategy on America. There is nothing wrong with calling that out. See, the reason a lot of things don’t change in this country is because you don’t have enough politicians that are willing to challenge capitalism. And Zohran is doing that.”

Hasan: “Very hard for me to get inside of Van Jones’ head, but I would remind people that Van Jones in 2017 is the guy who gave us the most famous line of the first Trump Administration. Van Jones on CNN said, ‘Tonight, he became president of the United States.’ Van Jones thinks that Donald Trump gives unifying speeches that make him president, but think Zohran Mamdani, who’s, united a multiracial, multicultural, multi-income coalition is divisive. That tells you more about Van Jones than it does tell you about Zohran Mamdani. I mean, Jared Kushner’s pal wasn’t a fan of Zohran Mamdani’s anti-oligarchy, anti-Trump speech. I’m shocked.”
CHARLAMAGNE THA GOD: “Please give Jones the biggest ee-aw.”
