Summary
CNN analyst Van Jones attributed Vice President Kamala Harris’s loss to Donald Trump in the presidential election to the Democrats’ ineffective media strategy.
Jones argued that while Democrats focused on traditional campaigning, Republicans built a powerful alternative media ecosystem, leveraging podcasts, online shows, and platforms like X to reach key voter demographics, especially young men.
Trump bypassed mainstream outlets, appearing on popular programs such as Joe Rogan’s podcast, which helped him dominate swing states.
Of course! Though I can’t think of another democratic country that quite as readily and enthusiastically wear political affiliations on their sleeve (literally).
It’s a dedication to a team that I personally only experience in terms of the dominant sports.
