CNN commentator Scott Jennings recently criticized the Democratic Party, accusing them of orchestrating a “coup” against President Joe Biden. Jennings, a Republican known for his outspoken views, made these comments during a Friday panel discussion hosted by Abby Phillip, with participants including former CNN host Brian Stelter.
The conversation centered around the turmoil within the Democratic Party, with several prominent Democrats voicing concerns about Biden’s ability to lead and his chances in the next election against former President Donald Trump. Jennings seized the opportunity to call out the Democrats for their apparent hypocrisy.
“I feel like I need to take up for the president here,” Jennings began, prompting laughter from the panel. “Because he won millions and millions of votes to earn the Democratic nomination, and I find it delicious that the ‘party of democracy’ is now organizing a coup against the sitting President of the United States. It’s crazy!”
Jennings’ pointed critique highlighted the irony he sees in the Democrats’ actions, given their self-identification as the “party of democracy.” His comments were well-received by the panel, despite their typically liberal stance.
Reports have emerged suggesting that key Democratic figures are losing confidence in Biden’s cognitive abilities and his ability to defeat Trump in the upcoming election. These internal debates have led to increased tension and calls for new leadership within the party.
Jennings shared his remarks on social media, stating, “Folks, we need to take up for President Biden. The ‘party of democracy’ is organizing an undemocratic coup against our President, and we need to speak up for the very fabric of our Constitution.”
Jennings’ accusations reflect the broader discourse and divisions within the Democratic Party as they prepare for the next presidential election. His call to defend Biden underscores the challenges the party faces in maintaining unity and presenting a strong front against their Republican opponents. The internal strife highlighted by Jennings could significantly impact the party’s strategy and success in the upcoming electoral contests.
