CNN viewers have been predicting that political analyst Van Jones will break down in tears if Kamala Harris loses the presidential election.
Jones, who worked for President Obama, has been a regular guest on CNN as the presidential election entered its final days.
The 56-year-old has been overcome with emotion live on air on several occasions, with social media users expecting the election result to give a similar reaction.
The remarks came as Trump soared to an all-time high in the betting markets, and Democrat strategist James Carville conceded Harris had lost ground.
One person posted on social media: ‘Van Jones is preparing his cry as we speak’, with another adding: ‘Regardless of the result he’s gonna cry’.

Another posted: ‘Whatever happens at the end of this election, one thing for sure is Van Jones is going to cry live [on] CNN.’
On Monday night he said that the Harris campaign had looked eerily similar to Hillary Clinton’s devastating loss in 2016.
With Harris holding rallies with A-list stars like 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 on the edge of 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 for babysitting for that or am I going to figure out a way to get to the polls? I don’t like these big star-studded events.’
The former Special Advisor for Green Jobs for the Obama White House said that these events are more of a hindrance to turning out voters than an asset.
‘I don’t want people going to concerts. I want people out there knocking on doors, I want people out there fighting for this thing. I’m just nervous, nervous, nervous.’
Jones, a lifelong liberal and star Democrat pundit, last slammed Harris after a high-stakes CNN town hall just 13 days from the election.
Harris’ inability to provide clear answers on both domestic and foreign policy, and trademark meandering responses throughout the 90-minute session had CNN’s left-leaning panelists ripping her afterwards.

In November 2020 he broke down in tears as he delivered a highly emotional reaction to Joe Biden winning the presidency.
Jones was asked for his thoughts seconds after CNN and multiple other TV networks called the race and projected that Biden is president elect.
He immediately had to compose himself as he began his impassioned take and stopped on several occasions to wipe his tears.
