Jennings: Dems Have Mostly Controlled America for 12 of the Last 16 Years But Somehow It’s Still All Trump’s Fault

COOPER: “Scott?”
JENNINGS: “Well, first of all, I think the Democrats should be congratulated for this night. It was well-produced, the music, the Obamas, the whole thing worked for them tonight. I think the contrast that I see, and I don‘t know which is going to win, but we‘re seeing the contrast of the politics of combat versus the politics of compassion. That‘s what the Obamas were trying to set up tonight, in my judgment. I should warn my fellow Republicans that we heard two of the greatest political communicators in the country tonight. Now, we had Hulkamania. The Democrats have Obamamania. They ripped the roof off of this place tonight. These Democrats are fired up. They‘re not playing, okay? Yes, they say things that are exaggerations. They do say things about Trump and the Republicans that are outright lies. But the convention is working for Harris, at least as of today. The gap that I still see in all these speeches, as good as they were, is that she‘s in the White House right now. Democrats have controlled the White House for 12 of the last 16 years, and for all of the talk about division and the problems in the country and people are hurting, Democrats have mostly controlled this country. Trump had it for four, the Obamas and Biden had it for the rest of the time, and somehow it‘s still all Trump‘s fault and somehow she hasn‘t been at the center of it. So, to me, that‘s still the glaring hole in this campaign that hasn‘t yet been solved at the convention. How do you explain all of the problems that will be solved by the person who is currently in there for the last three-and-a-half years, who is supposed to already be working on solving it? But bottom line tonight, this convention is working for them. Michelle Obama is — I mean, she‘s an incredible speaker and you cannot deny the power of what happened in the hall tonight.”
