Van Jones Had the Best Super Tuesday Moment

"The things that Donald Trump has done, and not just in this race, are horribly offensive. You can go back, with this guy, for a long time."

Super Tuesday was all set to go down as a set of recycled, unimaginative narratives until Van Jones had a moment with Trump supporter Jeffrey Lord. Jones, a former Obama advisor, and Lord, a former Reagan staffer, had a glorious, four-and-a-half-minute exchange last night on CNN during the network’s coverage of the primaries.

What we’re calling an exchange has been referred to, in varying accounts, as a meltdown, an eruption, a “fiery debate.” But we’re not getting into a semantic argument over which word makes a better headline, nor do we think the fact that an argument transpired is what makes this a story.
