Donald Trump flew off the handle on Monday morning, attacking Van Jones, claiming the CNN personality once came to him “crying like a baby” for help, and now has deemed him a “dictator.”

Jones, who once famously praised Trump in his first term after the president honored the widow of a slain NAVY Seal during a joint session of Congress, telling his CNN colleagues, “He became President of the United States in that moment, period,” has always straddled the line between faint praise and then criticism.

On Monday morning, the president complained Jones is now calling him a “dictator” without providing a link.

On Truth Social, the president wrote that he finds Jones ungrateful.

"When a devastated (he was crying like a baby!) Van Jones of CNN came to me with a group of African American leaders, he had ‘DEAD’ in getting Criminal Justice Reform approved in Congress. Van Jones and these Black reps had been unsuccessfully fighting to get ‘Reform’ for many years. He was just wasting everyone’s time - Needed 5 Conservative Senators - there was no chance, or even hope, for a win. I liked some of the people he was with, agreed with what they were saying, and quickly rounded up the votes needed to get CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM approved,” the president claimed.

He further asserted, “It was NOT easy! Nobody else, including Obama, who tried to for years, could have done this! Now I watch this guy, Van Jones, every chance he gets, calling me a ‘Dictator,’ and far worse. He should be ashamed of himself!!! President DJT.”
