Liberal media goes into meltdown mode after Biden drops out: Van Jones cries on air, Jen Psaki struggles for words
SUMMARY
Liberal media figures were visibly shaken by President Biden’s sudden withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race. CNN’s Van Jones, struggling to hold back tears, said, “This is somebody that you love. This is somebody that you care about. This is somebody who was there for you. And you had to take something from him.” He criticized the media for depicting Biden as a “problem for the party.” On CBS, Sen. Chris Coons, co-chair of the Biden-Harris campaign, became emotional, stating, “The folks in Delaware… want me to say to Joe Biden, how much we love him, how much we admire and respect his service.” He called Biden “the greatest Delawarean in our history.” MSNBC’s Jen Psaki, a former White House press secretary, appeared stunned, commenting, “I am digesting this myself… There’s very little indication from people close to him that this was about to happen.” The sudden announcement has left the Democratic race in chaos and media figures grappling with its fallout.
