David Hogg had the perfect response to a conservative rant on CNN, and the internet is loving it.
In case you’re not familiar, David is a Parkland school shooting survivor and gun control activist. The 25-year-old also served as a co-vice chair of the Democratic National Committee for a short period this year, until a clash with leaders led to him parting ways with the DNC.

Here’s the clip everyone’s talking about:
CNN / Twitter: @davidhogg111
On CNN, conservative political commentator Scott Jennings ranted about NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani. “He’s probably gonna win. I mean, it’s a Democrat town, and they’re gonna elect a socialist to run the financial capital of the world.”
Scott continued, “I mean, you know, you gave him $300 grand. That’s interesting. That’s probably the only $300 non-Islamo-Marxist grand that he got.”
Scott was likely referencing the contributions made by David’s Leaders We Deserve PAC. According to the website, it’s a “grassroots organization dedicated to electing young progressives to Congress and State Legislatures across the country to help defeat the far-right agenda and advance a progressive vision for the future.”
David responded, “They actually have a public financing system for their elections in New York.”
“And honestly, I think part of the reason he’s so powerful is because people are tired of being lectured by men with Rolexes on CNN about affordability in this country.”
Scott looked over real quick, LOL.

Obviously, people on X (formerly Twitter) had a lot to say about all this:
“Hahahahahahaha I laughed OUT LOUD when I saw this. You absolutely buried @ScottJenningsKY. I’ve literally never seen him speechless like this without some smug response.”

“‘islamo marxist’ lmao they just get to say whatever they want, it must rule to have such stupid voters.”
“Democrats should run this everywhere! EVERYFUCKINGWHERE! This IS the message!”
“smoke em.”
And finally, “Perfect response. The GOP, Trump and their fancy Mara lago parties have a real let them eat cake feel to it and people are getting very very sick of it.”
