Cornel West, Progressive Scholar, Announces Third-Party Bid for President

[Cuddles]

I dont know a single person who went to vote for Biden for the chips act,infrastructure bill,that lame gun bill etc.

I know plenty who went to vote for him for police reform,healthcare,increase minimum wage,free college,real gun control,immigration reform,block fracking on federal land etc bill etc.

Newsom is doing quite a bit of spinning on these "wins". I cringed on the "look at what he did to McCarthy". To his credit, the ad is about fighting and he didn't let Hannity paint the narrative.

Ageism?

doubtful....most these peeps would root for a Bernie. I personally do have concerns from either dropping dead and think Biden's cognition's dropped way more than Sanders's

Okay, just thought I'd ask. Point taken, from you both. I'm not suggesting that he's the best Dem candidate, but I think you could do worse. and I think he's being somewhat unfairly judged when you consider the fools he's up against on the other side whose only objective is to grind the country to a halt.

True.When Hannity knows his bull shit isn't working he quickly moves on from the question and try's with something else.

Yeah,restarted those 500 a month student loan payments that could have been delayed until the next presidential term,all those cuts to the poor and middle class,negotiating the debt ceiling at all etc.

 

[Tony Stark]

I think this is the promise he broke the fastest

koombaya is all fine and dandy, but throwing Ukraine under the bus just don't jive w/that message.

One of my biggest disappointments w/Obama was being rolled by the GOP and buying into the "bipartisanship/compromise" BS and not hammering them for their obstructionism. He gave them all the border enforcement they wanted only to be told to fuck off on reform. The SCOTUS pick was just the cherry on top.

So you'll forgive my even greater disappointment of Biden having witnessed it, using the same strategy.

Introducing bills to watch them die is the weakest of panders. How many virtue signaling or purity test bills are introduced by the GQP or dems every year? I've seen dems fold under pressure all my life, it's not unreasonable want them bust out the stick, but no, they're all carrot.

As to the tankies....I'm not sure how Marxist Leninist soviet apologists enters the picture. Sure they exist on the fringe left, but we're talking about medicare for all here, not a dictatorship takeover to impose marxism....I see the progs views line up w/soc dem worldwide, not fringe commie.

AGAIN, how do you propose passing historic bills with Sinema and Manchin in a 50-50 Senate? The pressure is coming from them, what is the stick you propose Biden use against them?

Not one bit imo.Why would people who voted for him for police reform approve of the job hes done ?Why would people who voted for him for healthcare approve of the job hes done ?Why would people who want immigration reform,a real gun safety bill,free college,15 minimum wage etc approve of the job hes done ?Why would those people vote for him again? IMO millions of them wont.

It's a 50-50 Senate with Sinema and Manchin, let's all vote for Cornel West who would armtwist them to pass historic bills.
