Democratic strategist and CNN commentator Van Jones discusses how Democrats quietly organized tens of thousands of people through the "American Accountability Network" to push their affordability message.

"The Republicans never figured out what we were doing," Jones said on Thursday. "There's something called the American Accountability Network, tens of thousands of online humans, not bots, coordinated to make the affordability message a winning message online. 32.5 million people hit on Instagram every day. 88.8 million hit on Twitter, X, every single day. And 185 million Facebook hits every single day. And they never figured it out."

"The Republicans could not understand it wasn't bots. It was actual human beings," Jones added.


Shocking huh?

Imagine the people who willing do this to their country.


Who runs the American Accountability Network?.

I imagine you'll find similar stuff for MAGA. They just picked the wrong topics

Affordability was a big play this year for all demos.

Trans stuff? Not so much.

Yeah I doubt that. Like 75% of Twitter is bots.

The embed feature was a net negative here. So much Twitter slop gets posted and the believers believe.

Well Trump gave the left that issue in spades by having $6 diesel and $4 gas a few weeks before the vote. It was staring every voter in the face every day on gas station signs in giant flashing numbers.

It was going to $2 till he decided to blow everything up and get buttF'ed in the midterms.

I can take it and understand the mission but millions obviously can't.

As should be obvious based on gas prices today, this had nothing to do with anything Trump did.

Then add in AI agents and subagents, most of social media is not real. As if we didn't already know that by the "influencers" using filters and fake setup scenarios to begin with. Social media is the downfall of society.

Sure it does. The strait has been completely open now with ships passing for weeks. Before then, it wasn't. Now we can argue even if having the strait completely closed should have driven gas prices that high.

I took a picture of the gas station closest to me on election day.

Prices are down 70 cents in one week.

Coincidence?

I hear ya brother. No it's not a coincidence definitely some fooKery there but Trump did give the media the Iran and gas issue.

I think they miscalculated the Iran timeframe for conclusion. Iran ain't Venezuela.

You know, gas prices historically tend to go down in November. What’s the “fooKery” this year?

How does it feel to know a "retard" is correct while you are not?

Gas prices usually drop 70 cents in a week in November?

Or are you just a liar?

Why are you so fricking stupid? You’re free to look up the stats, but I’m sure they wouldn’t mean anything to you.

Gas prices have dropped 3.8% over the past week. Is that more than they typically drop in November? Not necessarily. Again, gas prices historically tend to drop in November. Look it up.
