CNN's Van Jones Raises Alarm: Amber Rose's RNC Speech Poses 'Dangerous' Threat to Democrats

CNN senior political commentator Van Jones has issued a stern warning about the potential impact of TV personality and model Amber Rose's pro-Trump speech at the Republican National Convention, describing it as "the most dangerous speech" for the Democratic Party.

CNN senior political commentator Van Jones has sparked concern within the Democratic Party by characterizing model and TV personality Amber Rose's speech at the Republican National Convention as "the most dangerous speech" for their political coalition.

During his coverage of the first night of the convention in Milwaukee, Jones expressed apprehension over the significance of Rose, a person of color with mainstream fame, addressing the RNC. He noted her potential to appeal to individuals within liberal circles who may be disenchanted with Democratic policies.

"That was probably the most dangerous speech for the Democratic coalition," Jones asserted.

Rose delivered a compelling narrative of her political transformation, detailing her journey from perceiving Trump as a "racist" to becoming a vocal supporter of his movement. She attributed this shift to her father's challenge to explore Trump's statements and policies beyond the mainstream media's portrayal.

"I realize Donald Trump and his supporters don’t care if you’re Black, White, gay or straight, it’s all love. And that’s when it hit me, these are my people. This is where I belong," Rose declared in her speech.

Jones recognized the significance of Rose's speech, emphasizing that she effectively articulated a sentiment shared by many individuals who feel scrutinized for their views in liberal circles. He noted her extensive fame, which surpasses that of the other CNN panelists present.

"And she spoke to it really well. And she’s way more famous than any of us up here. I’m going to tell you that. Way more famous," Jones stated.

"And so, to the extent that these guys are trying to bust up our coalition, that was a bunker buster right there."

CNN anchor Anderson Cooper echoed Jones' assessment, highlighting Rose's unique ability to connect with the audience beyond the convention hall.

"And it’s one of the things we’ve been talking about – there are speakers that speak to the room, and there are speakers who speak through the television screen. She speaks through the camera to the audience at home," Cooper remarked.

Rose initially garnered attention for her support of Trump in May, sharing images of herself on social media wearing a bikini and a MAGA hat. She also documented her meeting with Trump and former First Lady Melania Trump.

When questioned about her changed stance, Rose stated, "Is Donald Trump not for women's rights issues? – He's trying to Make America Great Again – that's for women too."

"We just did our research and we're not brainwashed anymore by the left," she added.

The potential impact of Rose's speech on Democratic voters remains a matter of concern, particularly given her ability to resonate with diverse demographics. Jones' warning underscores the strategic maneuverings of the Republican Party in courting disaffected individuals from opposing political affiliations.

As the Republican National Convention unfolds, the Democrats will face the challenge of countering the potential effects of Rose's speech and maintaining the integrity of their coalition. Failure to do so could pose significant risks to their electoral prospects in the upcoming election.
