CNN commentator Van Jones has ignited a conversation about antisemitism within the Democratic Party following Vice President Kamala Harris's decision to choose Governor Tim Walz over Josh Shapiro as her running mate.
Jones highlighted a sense of 'relief' among conservatives and 'disquiet' within the Jewish community regarding Shapiro being passed over. He pointed out that while not everyone opposing Shapiro is an anti-Jewish bigot, there are elements of antisemitism that have been 'marbled in' to the party's fabric.
This has led to calls for a deeper discussion on the issue, as the party aims to address and reconcile these internal tensions.
