Mr. Jones, This Election Had Nothing to Do With White People

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Did you hear what Van Jones said? I have a question. I'm sure this question is gonna be controversial as it can be, but I'm gonna ask it anyway. Van Jones at CNN... We even have the audio sound bite. Let me find this. I didn't know... Number eight. Listen to Van Jones. He is the resident communist -- well (chuckles), one of many resident communists -- at CNN. He was in the first Obama administration until he was shamed out of it, and he was on their special coverage last night talking about Trump being on the way to winning. This is what he said...

CNN's Van Jones: Trump Won Due to 'White-Lash' to Obama, 'Changing Country'

JONES: This was a whitelash. (pause) This was a whitelash against a changing country. It was a whitelash against a black president in part. And that's the part where the pain comes. And Donald Trump has a responsibility tonight to come out and reassure people that he is going to be the president of all the people who he insulted and offended and brushed aside.

RUSH: So you see how this works? "Trump has got to mend fences. Trump has to approach us. Trump has to come to us, the offended, the aggrieved, the disadvantaged. Trump has to approach us. Trump!" Donald Trump has just schooled everybody on how you win. It is everybody else who should be approaching Donald Trump. But here's my question, folks. Van Jones of CNN says that this is a "whitelash." What is he complaining about? He's complaining that white people voted their interests?

To Van Jones and to a lot on the left and the Democrat Party, white people voting their interests is dangerous and not legitimate. That fact alone, as far as Van Jones is concerned -- and probably many others on the left -- disqualifies Trump's victory. In their minds. And it's what scares the heck out of them to boot. A whitelash. Why is it not legitimate to honestly discuss "the white vote"? White people are still the majority in America. There are massive demographic shifts taking place, but white people are still the majority.

Somebody needs to tell me why it's wrong for white people to vote their interests when it's not wrong for African-Americans to unify and monolithically vote their interests. Women monolithically unify; vote their interests. Muslims monolithically unify; vote their interests. Gays and lesbians unify; monolithically vote their interests. Feminists unify; vote their interests monolithically. That's how the Democrat Party wins. All of these different constituency groups think, act, and vote alike -- and when they do it, they call it "progress."

They call it "overcoming." They call it other things that I, frankly, find despicable. But when white people do it, it's not permitted. When white people do it, it's not good. When white people do it, it's bad. So exactly when did it happen that all white people became bigots? When did it happen? Because it has happened. In the minds of the left in this country and in the minds of the Democrat Party, that is exactly the case. And white people -- and they're the ones that said this. I didn't say this, by the way. Van Jones called it a whitelash. All the commentaries last night on TV said, "White people came together and voted against Hillary!"

They're the ones claiming it.

Why is it illegitimate for white people to do exactly what every other group in the Democrat constituency does? Is it because we really are not going to have a majority system? Is that what the Democrats really oppose, a majority system? They want to turn the country into the tyranny of the majority and have the minorities and all of the additions of all the minorities dominate and rule? Because otherwise this doesn't make any sense. White people and Christians are the two the groups that it is politically correct to slander; it's perfectly okay to slander. Donald Trump won because he was the only candidate unafraid to appeal to them and face down the consequences of doing so.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: This election was not affected by a bunch of white people deciding to take their country back because of their race. It had nothing to do with that, but the Democrats believe firmly that it was. Van Jones calling it a whitelash. I have a little bit more time to develop this.

I want to ask this question again, folks. Why is it perfectly fine for the Democrats to assign to every constituency, every group a monolithic groupthink: All women are for abortion. All women are feminists. All blacks are a part of Black Lives Matter. All union members are socialists and hate capitalism. They do this! This is how they look at people. The first thing they do is put people in groups and then treat everybody in those groups as mind-numbed robots.

For example, as far as the Democrats are concerned, all American Muslims think like CAIR. All Hispanic voters are for lawlessness. All Hispanic voters are for open borders, they tell us. All Hispanic voters are for amnesty. It's not true. They tell us that all women are pro-abortion, and on and on it goes, group by group by group, except when it comes to white people. When white people behave, in the eyes of Democrats, exactly as their other groups do, then all of a sudden it's not permitted. Now it's called a whitelash.

I just have a simple question. Why is it not legitimate to discuss white people and their interests? Why is it wrong for white people to vote their interests? The only way that can be the case, the only way that it can be wrong for white people to vote their interests is if you believe every white person is a bigot, if you believe that every white person is a racist. And I am here to tell you that that is the message the Democrat Party and the American left attempt to convey as they run around and continue to do everything they can to tar and feather and impugn and diminish every majority group in this country for the express purposes of tearing it down.

But this election had nothing to do with white people wanting their country back on racial concerns. This election had nothing to do with white people being mad at other people who are not white and simply showing up to express their anger and outrage and try to take away power from people who are not white. It had nothing to do with this. This election was about the direction of the country.

This election was about the direction of the country.

Well said, Rush

Van Jones Shares His Racist Views With Children

[T-Bone Texan]

A haiku:

Van Jones hates white folks
He’d put you all in death camps
And stomp your child’s skull

[TornadoAlley3]

Van wants US to burn and loot.

[dfwgator]

How many Trump voters voted for Obama twice?

I bet the numbers will shock people.

[shhrubbery!]

I agree.

In fact it was the two Obama elections that were, arguably, racist. Why?
(1) Because many black folks voted for Obama simply because he was black.
(2) Because many white folks also voted for Obama because he was black ... in the naive belief that by doing so, they would confer virtue on themselves, and absolve the nation of its racist past.

It backfired. The black community has suffered greatly under Obama's repressive policies; and the country as a whole has become far more polarized under Obama's divisive leadership, than it was before his election in 2008.

[Bullish]

Van Jones is nothing but a race agitator. Of course he immediately blames skin color. Everything’s always about skin color to that racist little communist prick.

[Wolfie]

""But I'll tell you what they don't want. They don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well-informed, well-educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that. That doesn't help them. That's against their interests. They don't want people who are smart enough to sit around the kitchen table and figure out how badly they're getting f***ed by a system that threw them overboard 30 f***ing years ago."

- George Carlin

[Kaslin]

He sure is.

[Owen]

Their new little narrative needs to be nipped in the bud. Facts:

the exit polls were wrong SO EVERY QUOTE FROM THEM IS INVALID.

Quotes about hispanics, blacks, college educated, men/women . . . all invalid.

They have nothing to talk about because all the data is invalid.

[Altura Ct.]

Why is it not legitimate to honestly discuss "the white vote"?

Exactly! Along this same line. Why are so many whites afraid to discuss this?

[Yashcheritsiy]

Rush is still a normie so I'd expect him to say this...

But, the election actually had EVERYTHING to do with white people. White people finally figuring out they were getting rooked by the system and deciding to start bloc voting, just like Steve Sailor has been advocating since 2000.

The election WAS about the direction of the country - but that idea rests on the fundamental issues of demographics, immigration, and political correctness. Everything else ultimately traces back to these, or at least depends on them.

[kallisti]

I’d like to dedicate the next song to Van...Ballad of a Thin Man.

[dsc]

As I recall, Carlin was talking about Republicans when he said that.

So much of his comedy was grounded in fundamental misunderstandings of the world we live in.

[bkopto]

Whites voting their interests, huh? The table shows that the country is breaking down along racial lines, between whites and nonwhites. This shows why the Rats and globalists have been so interested in replacing the whites, since 1965, by importing third worlders wholesale.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Ummm, isn’t Hillary Clinton white?

[Kaslin]

With your pencil in your hand
You see somebody naked
And you say, "Who is that man?"
You try so hard
But you don't understand
Just what you'll say
When you get home

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

You raise up your head
And you ask, "Is this where it is?"
And somebody points to you and says
"It's his"
And you say, "What's mine?"
And somebody else says, "Where what is?"
And you say, "Oh my God
Am I here all alone?"

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

You hand in your ticket
And you go watch the geek
Who immediately walks up to you
When he hears you speak
And says, "How does it feel
To be such a freak?"
And you say, "Impossible"
As he hands you a bone

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

You have many contacts
Among the lumberjacks
To get you facts
When someone attacks your imagination
But nobody has any respect
Anyway they already expect you
To just give a check
To tax-deductible charity organizations

You've been with the professors
And they've all liked your looks
With great lawyers you have

Discussed lepers and crooks
You've been through all of
F. Scott Fitzgerald's books
You're very well read
It's well known

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

Well, the sword swallower, he comes up to you
And then he kneels
He crosses himself
And then he clicks his high heels
And without further notice
He asks you how it feels
And he says, "Here is your throat back
Thanks for the loan"

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

Now you see this one-eyed midget
Shouting the word "NOW"
And you say, "For what reason?"
And he says, "How?"
And you say, "What does this mean?"
And he screams back, "You're a cow
Give me some milk
Or else go home"

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

Well, you walk into the room
Like a camel and then you frown
You put your eyes in your pocket
And your nose on the ground
There ought to be a law
Against you comin' around
You should be made
To wear earphones

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

[Wolfie]

Nope, no mention of political party at all. Full text here if you want to confirm.
