Van Jones: Trump Could Pick Kermit the Frog as VP, Republicans Will Still Vote for Him

Pam Key 21 Jun 2024

CNN commentator Van Jones said Thursday on CNN’s “Situation Room” that former President Donald Trump could pick Kermit the Frog as his running mate and that Republicans would still vote for him.

Host Wolf Blitzer said, “What do you make of the fact that almost all of these Trump potential vice presidential finalists have previously been very, very critical of Trump?”

Jones said, “Well, I mean, pretty much every human being on earth has been critical of Trump because Trump does stuff that demands criticism. He gets indicted, he gets impeached, he insults people, he’s awful. If you had a child like that, you would you be very, very concerned. You certainly wouldn’t hire someone like that. So there is very few people whose last name or not Trump that have not criticized him. So he’s got to swim in those waters.”

He continued, “That said, the last time he had to pick somebody. He was trying to consolidate the party. He had problems. He had to figure out how can I get the Evangelicals on my side? How can I get the business community to go with me? He was forced to pick Pence. He has no problems with this party now. He can do whatever he wants to. He acts completely unacceptable, and they all want to vote for him anyway. So that’s why he gets a chance to play this little reality game show competition. And at some point, just literally throw a dart because there’s not one part of this party not

Jones added, “Evangelicals, not the business community, not the grassroots that’s willing to stand up to this guy and say, you are not behaving an acceptable way for an American leader. They will all bowed down. So now, it could be Rubio, it could be Tim Scott, it can literally be Kermit the Frog. They are still going to vote for him the same numbers and he knows it.”

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Aw, man. Kermit has a lot of management experience running the Muppet Theater, and is all-around a great guy. Why would Van besmirch his name like that?

Does Van believe Kermit is a real person?
Show us on the doll where Kermit hurt you, Van.

Kermit the Frog has more intellect and political skills than the existing so called VPOTUS.

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

At least Kermit won’t be a cackling mass of word salad

Kermit the Frog would make a better VP than either Biden or Cameltoe.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
