Tears over Trump anti-semitism. But I somehow remember him declaring that Trump "became a president" a few months ago... I think because he didn't stumble in a policy speech.

I'd be appreciative of seeing someone who isn't Jewish actually being concerned about Jews! I like Van Jones, but I think he often has a pair of rose-colored glasses which he just can't seem to take off...sounds like they might have slipped off his nose for a bit.

Warner was horrified after today's display in Trump Tower.

Riding the wave of the most recent news cycle and adjusting his opinions accordingly. His opinion never mattered, and neither do his pathetic tears.

Finding his tears a bit ironic after he raved about Trump that time.
