It’s not clear if CNN’s conservative diversity hire Scott Jennings actually believes the shit that comes out of his mouth. He probably doesn’t and it’s just a play for clout, maybe some ambassadorship in the Trump Administration or a future career in Congress. Whether or not he’s angling for a spot at Fox News we don’t know, but at least from our perspective, unless it came with an insane pay raise he couldn’t refuse, that would be a stupid move. Just like a MAGA troll who realizes there’s no fun being in an echo chamber in the ongoing lib exodus from Twitter and creates a Blue Sky account, Jennings would, for at least another few years, do well to stay on CNN where the friction is.

That doesn’t mean he’s actually good at this, as on Thursday night he just looked like a fucking worm while hilariously trying to sell the rest of the panel on the idea that Americans – who just rejected a competent leader from a professionally-run administration because the cost of eggs – will put up with more inflation and accept convicted felon President-Elect Trump’s admission that he can’t actually do much if anything to bring them back down after promising that repeatedly on the campaign trail. “I think there may be some elasticity in the American people on accepting certain short term economic issues if it means” the “open borders” circlejerk will be fixed, Jennings said.

Lol. In the next segment, which actually took up more of the above clip, Jennings explained to his fellow panelists that conservatives are justified in being angry over white rookie WNBA star Caitlin Clark acknowledging that the league was built by Black women because the league lost $40 million last year, thus it’s clear Clark has been captured by the “woke mob.” Great stuff on CNN primetime.
