CNN This Morning’s panel attempted to malign Republicans on Tuesday, questioning if bodysnatchers caused Republicans’ “factual misstatements” regarding the indictment of former President Donald Trump. After asking Florida’s Republican Representative Bryon Donalds to speak on the subject, Van Jones and John Miller attacked his perspective, claiming that Republicans were following a script and had stopped caring about national security.
Jones called Republicans “really far down the rabbit hole,” and asserted that they were apathetic to endangered servicemen:
There used to be – there’s some kind of invasion of the bodysnatchers happening here. Republicans used to care about national security. You had a Republican congressperson who doesn't care about U.S. service people possibly being put at - in harm's way, doesn't care that methods, and means, and fortunes may be jeopardized. Doesn't care, is just going to defend Donald Trump no matter what he does, and that I think is the problem that we have.
