Scott Jennings just left 26-year-old left-wing activist David Hogg stumbling in his dust live on CNN

Jennings left him speechless with one simple question.

HOGG: “Anybody with an elementary school understanding of foreign policy could have told you the Strait of Hormuz was going to get shut down, and that is exactly what happened.”

JENNINGS: “And who controls it right now?”

[Silence]

“Who controls strait right now?”

HOGG: “How high are...why are gas prices so high then?”

JENNINGS: “Why were they high during Biden’s administration? Did you like that?”

[Jennings laughs in his face]

“You’re using last week’s talking points David, WE control the strait!”

“We are in charge of this conflict right now.”

Hogg tried to claim anyone with an “elementary school understanding” of foreign policy could have predicted the Strait of Hormuz closure.
