Here we go, it’s that time again! The lighter side of politics.
During a recent address to a crowd gathered for Turning Point USA’s AmFest 2o23, Vivek Ramaswamy had some choice words for Democrat and CNN personality Van Jones.
The popular candidate, often seen as anti-establishment, told CNN’s Van Jones “To shut the f**k up” in response to recent comments Jones made regarding Ramaswamy.
Jones attempted to paint Ramaswamy as some Hitler-like demagogue, you know, the usual baseless Democrat comments and smearing.
Ramaswamy told the AmFest 2023 audience: “You’ve got this character Van Jones on CNN afterward saying ‘This is the rise of an American demagogue who is going to live 50 years longer the Trump. This is dangerous.’ …Just shut the FUCK up!”
VIVEK: “You’ve got this character Van Jones on CNN afterward saying ‘This is the rise of an American demagogue who is going to live 50 years longer the Trump. This is dangerous.’ …Just shut the FUCK up!”

Leftist Brian Krassenstein attempted to drum up support for Jones and sterile political newspeak:
“I understand why Vivek Ramaswamy would be angry at Van Jones for what he said but… Just wondering how you think Conservatives would react if Joe Biden told Sean Hannity to “just shut the f-ck up”.
My guess is that they would say that this is the kind of rhetoric that shows how far America has fallen, we need Jesus and that such language is not meant for a politician. Am I wrong?”

The New York Post provided the backdrop for the current back-and-forth between the two men:
Ramaswamy, who is vying for the GOP nomination for president in 2024, offered the brash suggestion for the cable news personality after Jones said on-air he was “shaking” during the fourth GOP debate when Ramaswamy spoke because he felt like he was watching “the rise of an American demagogue.”
By now, Vivek’s comments to Jones have gone viral on the internet and conservatives overwhelmingly approved of his reaction to Van Jones.
Vivek just told Van Jones to shut the F#ck up…hilarious and endorsed!

Jones’ comments were noted by The Hill:
“I was shaking listening to him talk, because a lot of people don’t know. That is one step away from Nazi propaganda coming out of his mouth.”
