CNN senior political commentator Van Jones warned that TV personality and model Amber Rose’s address backing GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee was “probably the most dangerous speech for the Democratic coalition.”
After Rose’s appearance at the RNC Monday night, people had mixed reactions to the American model with a tattoo prominently placed on her forehead, along with the RNC’s decision to feature her as a speaker and the potential impact she might have on voters. However, Jones felt it was clear that the model had spoken well, and despite any reservations Republicans might have had about featuring a supporter with a conflicting background, the Republican Party achieved a “bunker buster” with her alone.
“That is a young woman of color,” noted Jones. “She is describing the experience a lot of people have, feeling that maybe if you’re around liberals you might get criticized too much, you might not be able to speak your mind, and she spoke to it really well, and she’s way more famous than any of us up here.”
He added, “To the extent that these guys are trying to bust up our coalition, that was a bunker buster right there.”
CNN anchor Anderson Cooper echoed Jones’s sentiments regarding the effectiveness of Rose’s speech. He responded to Jones, saying, “And it’s one of the things we’ve been talking about… She speaks through the camera to the audience at home.”
The 40-year-old model previously criticized Trump early in his presidency in The Cut magazine back in 2016: Hillary Clinton was only being supported by “non-hot” celebrities. She added, “He’s just such an idiot. He’s so weird. I really hope he’s not president.”
Although some may feel the SlutWalk doesn’t align with the conservative views of the Republican Party, Rose believes that her fight for women and marginalized groups is very much in line with her support for Trump.
“I realized Donald Trump and his supporters don’t care if you’re Black, white, gay or straight. It’s all love. And that’s when it hit me: These are my people. This is where I belong.”
