A Democrat state lawmaker went on CNN on Wednesday evening and threatened to slash Republicans’ throats.
And CNN didn’t push back at all.
Jolanda Jones, a Texas State Democrat Rep. who is running for a US House seat, went on CNN and told host Erin Burnett that she’s going to get violent with Republicans because she’s from the ‘hood,’
“I’m from the hood, okay!? So when the bully comes like – if there are no rules you have to figure it out so Donald Trump has changed things,” Jones said.
She continued, “And I think that’s why Democrats are losing black people. That’s why they’re losing poor people.”
“Because with poor people, all they want is for us to fight, so if you hit me in my face, I’m not gonna punch you back in your face I’m gonna go across your neck.”
“You gotta hit hard enough where they won’t come back and so yeah, for the same way that I went to New York and spoke with governor Kathy Hochul and said that if they’re gonna try to wipe up out in Texas, we need to wipe out every Republican in New York and California, and Illinois,” she said.
Jolanda Jones didn’t take Michelle Obama’s advice. She said if they go low, I’m going to get in the gutter.
Erin Burnett sat there and did not push back on Jolanda Jones at all.
