CNN’s Scott Jennings was asked today about the impact that President-elect Trump has had on the shape of politics this year alone and proceeded to give a fantastic answer, including what he argues is one of Trump’s greatest super powers:
“One of the superpowers of Donald Trump is that he’s the breaker of narratives. There were always narratives around him that he could never win the election, that the case in New York was going to bring him down, that this or that was going to be the thing that finally brought down Donald Trump or that Kamala Harris was the greatest presidential candidate we’ve ever seen – and so on and so forth. Trump is the breaker of narratives and I think he exposed really the political information distribution complex in this election for what it is, which is often a distributor of narratives and not facts.”
Watch his full answer below:
Trump is having a helluva ride – the greatest political comeback story in American history. Plus, he just destroys one wrongheaded political narrative after another. My latest for @cnn. pic.twitter.com/8RgWKsY48e
