WATCH: CNN Commentator Goes Mask Off On Co-Host, Says Democrats Will Smear Every GOP Candidate Like Trump

A CNN host ripped into a co-host regarding the Democrat playbook going into the 2024 presidential cycle on CNN’s State of the Union Sunday morning.

Scott Jennings, a CNN political contributor, lambasted Democrats for smearing every GOP presidential nominee as “monsters.” Jennings’ comments came in response to former Democrat Congressman Mondaire Jones dramatically saying that every single GOP presidential candidate “would post an existential threat to democracy itself.”

Jones went on to say that since all Republican candidates were so dangerous for democracy, “Donald Trump will be the easiest person to defeat on that side.”

“It doesn’t matter who the Republicans nominate. That person’s gonna be called everything that they would call Donald Trump, whether it’s DeSantis or anybody else, Democrats always do this,” Jennings interjected in a fiery rant.

Jennings described how Democrats have smeared Republican nominees for decades. “George W. Bush, Mitt Romney, John McCain, Donald Trump…they were all history’s greatest monsters.”

“The only good Republican, I guess, is a dead or defeated one,” Jennings suggested Democrats like Jones believe.

Frustrated with Jones’ smear tactics against Republicans as a whole, Jennings added, “if you really believe what you say, then you would be happy about the rise of any other candidate.”
