CNN's Scott Jennings Calls Tim Walz A 'Buffoon' In Priceless Segment: 'Me No Understand Words Good'

CNN contributor Scott Jennings called Minnesota Governor Tim Walz a "buffoon" in a hilarious segment over the weekend.

Jennings, who frequently advocates for conservative positions on the left-wing network's panels, was discussing the upcoming vice presidential debate between Walz and J.D. Vance, which is scheduled for Tuesday evening.

"Walz is a buffoon. I'm sorry, this guy, he's the only school teacher in America who brags that none of his students can get into an Ivy League school," Jennings said.

Walz previously attacked former President Trump's running mate, J.D. Vance, for attending a prestigious university. "I had 24 kids in my high school class. And none of them went to Yale," Walz, a former teacher, said during the Democratic National Convention.

Jennings also mocked Walz for the campaign's historic lack of press access, noting that Walz's lone interview of the campaign cycle which was filmed alongside Vice President Harris was a pre-taped, 18-minute chat with CNN's Dana Bash. The CNN host pressed Walz who never deployed to a combat zone during his time with the Minnesota National Guard on previous statements he made about "carrying weapons of war."

The Minnesota governor attempted to sidestep the question by claiming he misspoke. "My wife, the English teacher, told me my grammar is not always correct," he said.

"He's had one consequential press interaction with our Dana Bash, who asked him about the fabrications in his own resume, and his answer was essentially,

!function(r,u,m,b,l,e){r._Rumble=b,r[b]||(r[b]=function(){(r[b]._=r[b]._||[]).push(arguments);if(r[b]._.length==1){l=u.createElement(m),e=u.getElementsByTagName(m)[0],l.async=1,l.src="https://rumble.com/embedJS/u9lmzn"+(arguments[1].video?'.'+arguments[1].video:'')+"/?url="+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+"&args="+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify([].slice.apply(arguments))),e.parentNode.insertBefore(l,e)}})}(window, document, "script", "Rumble");

Jennings has frequently criticized the Harris-Walz Campaign for the historic lack of press access. A recent analysis from Axios found that the Democratic Party candidates have sat for fewer interviews than any major presidential candidates in the modern era.

"Look, I have great confidence and Dana and CNN to do this. I think it's incredibly weak, weak sauce to show up with your running mate. The fact that they don't have enough confidence in her to let her sit herself the actual top of the ticket and do a single interview," the CNN contributor said just before Harris' first interview, which took place nearly 40 days after she became the de facto Democratic Party nominee.

Jennings further speculated that the decision points to a growing lack of confidence in Harris' abilities despite consistent efforts to paint the picture of enthusiasm behind the campaign.
