CNN viewers predict political analyst Van Jones will burst into tears if Kamala Harris loses the presidential election.
Jones, who worked for President Obama, was a regular on CNN as the presidential election entered its final days.
The 56-year-old was overcome with emotion several times live, with social media users expecting the election result to trigger a similar reaction.
The comments came as Trump rose to a record high in the betting markets, and Democrat strategist James Carville admitted Harris had lost ground.
One person posted on social media: ‘Van Jones is preparing his cry as we speak,’ while another added: ‘Regardless of the outcome he’s going to cry.’

The comments came as Trump soared to record highs in the betting markets, and Democrat strategist James Carville admitted Harris had lost ground.
Another wrote: ‘Whatever happens at the end of this election, one thing is certain: Van Jones is going to cry live [on] CNN.”
On Monday night, he said the Harris campaign was eerily similar to Hillary Clinton’s devastating 2016 loss.
Now that Harris is holding rallies with A-stars such as Oprah Winfrey, Lady Gaga and Katy Perry in various swing states, Jones sees parallels.
“The other thing that makes me nervous: In 2016, we had a big, star-studded event right before the election, and we lost the state,” Jones said.
‘I don’t think people understand, working people sometimes have to choose. Am I going to go to the big, cool concert and pay the babysitter or am I going to figure out a way to get to the polls? I don’t like these big, star-studded events.’
The Obama White House’s former special adviser on green jobs said these events are a hindrance to voter turnouts rather than a benefit.
‘I don’t want people to go to concerts. I want people to knock on the door, I want people to fight for this thing. I’m just nervous, nervous, nervous.’
Jones, a lifelong liberal and Democratic pundit, last criticized Harris after a high-stakes CNN town hall just 13 days after the election.
Harris’ inability to provide clear answers on both domestic and foreign policy, and characteristically meandering responses throughout the 90-minute session, led CNN’s left-wing panelists to grill her afterward.

In November 2020, he broke down in tears as he gave a highly emotional response to Joe Biden winning the presidency.
Jones was asked for his opinion seconds after CNN and several other TV networks called the race and predicted Biden would be the president-elect.
He had to calm down immediately as he began his passionate recording, stopping several times to wipe his tears.
