Tuesday night on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360,” network host Van Jones criticized President Donald Trump’s tweet suggesting the FBI was “spending too much time trying to prove Russian collusion,” and that led to it having “missed all of the many signals sent out by the Florida school shooter.”
Jones said, “So tough to see the distinction between those young people, who are so clear, so forthright…and then to have that right up against these presidential tweets. You couldn’t imagine a more juvenile response to a mass killing of children than to use that opportunity to try to stick your finger in the eye of the people who you didn’t like before anyway.”
He added, “To stand over the bodies of children and poke your finger in the eye of your adversary is as low as you can possibly go in public life, and it’s a shame that the president did that.”
