Trump Critic Van Jones Praises Congressional Address: ‘He Became President of the United States’ (Video)

“That was one of the most extraordinary moments you have ever seen in American politics,” the CNN political commentator says of Carryn Owens ovation

Asked by Anderson Cooper for his reaction to the standing ovation for the widow of a Navy Seal killed in action during Tuesday’s address to Congress, Jones said: “He Became President of the United States in that moment, period.”

“There are a lot of people who have a lot of reasons to be frustrated with him, to be fearful of him, to be mad — but that was one of the most extraordinary moments you have ever seen in American politics,” Jones said of Trump honoring Carryn Owens, whose husband Chief Petty Officer William “Ryan” Owens was killed in a recent Yemen raid.
