CNN commentator Van Jones said that the Democratic Party was renewed by the emergence of Vice President Harris as leader of the progressive movement at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) this week.

One month after replacing President Biden as the leader of the Democratic Party, Harris accepted her party's presidential nomination on Thursday night as she delivered the most important speech of her political career.

"She‘s fixing some problems on the left," Jones said of Harris' speech at the DNC on Thursday night. "This whole thing has been an implicit critique of problems we‘ve had on the left."

Jones said that the Democratic Party has focused on "justice, diversity, trigger warnings, reparations for the past" and included a "bunch of party poopers and scolds."

"We have gone from talking about justice, which was wonderful, but now it‘s about freedom," Jones continued during the media panel discussion following Harris' speech. "It's not just about diversity, it's about patriotism. It’s not just about trigger warnings, in fact, those are gone. Reparations for the past? No. Fight for the future."

"Party poopers? No. We legalized fun," he said. "We put the party back in the Democratic Party. So this is a remolding of the genetic makeup of what the progressive movement is."

Jones said that Republicans want a winning battle against Democrats, which means focusing on President Biden's administration and a "woke" regime.

"These guys want to fight not just Biden in the past," Jones said. "They want to fight this sort of anti-woke war against a left that just died in here and something new just got born."

He told the GOP that, "Kamala Harris Democrats are a different thing for you guys to fight."

Harris delivered her roughly 40-minute speech on day four of the DNC in Chicago's United Center, promising a "a new way forward" if Americans elect her to succeed Biden as president.

The vice president warned Americans against returning former President Trump, the Republican nominee, to power.

Trump suffers unintentionally funny meltdown on DNC’s final night

If members of Donald Trump’s team had greater control of their boss, they probably should’ve tried to keep the former president distracted during the Democratic National Convention. The more the Republican’s attention could be diverted from television screens, the less likely he’d be to throw tantrums.

But if that was the plan, it didn’t work.

Before the final night of the DNC got underway, the former president announced that he’d offer online rebuttals to the convention by way of his social media platform. He certainly tried to do that, starting with a weird “WHERE’S HUNTER?” missive, as if Trump had briefly forgotten that there’s no longer any point in going after President Joe Biden’s son.

As a New York Times report noted, the online tirades — totaling roughly 50 items — ultimately proved insufficient, prompting the GOP candidate to make a phone call.

I can appreciate why the network worked quickly to get the Republican candidate on the air, albeit by telephone. Trump is, after all, the GOP nominee, and it stood to reason that he’d have something notable to say in response to his Democratic rival’s remarks.What Fox might not have realized, however, is that Harris’ convention speech had apparently caused a meltdown.

Trump appeared on the air for about 10 minutes, during which time he not only raged incoherently, he also accidentally pushed random buttons on his phone. The interview — I’m using the word loosely — might’ve gone on longer, but Fox anchors Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum effectively cut off the former president mid-rant so that the network could move on to other programming.

And while it was certainly amusing to see Fox effectively tell Trump they no longer wanted to hear him whine uncontrollably, it was even funnier when the Republican hung up with one conservative media network, only to call another.In fact, almost immediately after Trump ranted on Fox, he called Newsmax to keep the meltdown going a while longer.

In a normal political party, such a meltdown would probably be seen as disqualifying. In the contemporary Republican Party, it was a tragically routine Thursday night.
