CNN viewers have been predicting that political analyst Van Jones will burst into tears if Kamala Harris loses the presidential election.
Jones, who worked for President Obama, has been a frequent guest on CNN as the presidential election entered its final days.
The 56-year-old has been emotional on several occasions live, and social media users hoped the election result would provoke a similar reaction.
The comments came as Trump hit an all-time high in betting markets and Democratic strategist James Carville admitted Harris had lost ground.
One person posted on social media: “Van Jones is getting ready to cry as we speak,” and another added: “Regardless of the outcome, he’s going to cry.”
Jones, who worked for President Obama, recently appeared on CNN as the presidential election entered its final days.
The comments came as Trump hit an all-time high in betting markets and Democratic strategist James Carville admitted Harris had lost ground.
Another posted: “Whatever happens at the end of this election, one thing’s for sure is that Van Jones is going to cry live (on) CNN.”
On Monday night he said Harris’ campaign had looked eerily similar to Hillary Clinton’s devastating 2016 loss.
With Harris holding rallies with A-list stars like Oprah Winfrey, Lady Gaga and Katy Perry in several swing states, Jones sees parallels.
“The other thing that makes me nervous is that in 2016 we had a big star-studded event right on the verge of the election and we lost the state,” Jones said.
‘I don’t think people understand, workers sometimes have to choose. Am I going to go to the big, cool concert and pay for babysitting or am I going to find a way to get to the polls? I don’t like these big star-studded events.
The former Special Advisor for Green Jobs in the Obama White House said these events are more of a hindrance to turning out voters than an advantage.
‘I don’t want people to go to concerts. I want people knocking on doors, I want people fighting for this. I’m just nervous, nervous, nervous.’
Jones, a liberal pundit and longtime star Democrat, last criticized Harris after a high-stakes CNN town hall just 13 days before the election.
Harris’s inability to provide clear answers on both domestic and foreign policy, and characteristic meandering responses throughout the 90-minute session, caused CNN’s left-leaning panelists to criticize her afterward.

In November 2020, she broke down in tears when she gave a very emotional reaction when Joe Biden won the presidency.
Jones was asked his opinion seconds after CNN and many other television networks called the race and projected Biden as the president-elect.
She immediately had to compose herself as she began her passionate shoot, stopping several times to wipe away her tears.
