Cornel West recently announced he is running for president as a Green Party candidate, challenging President Biden in 2024. Some Democrats worry that West’s candidacy could split the progressive vote and help reelect Donald Trump if he is the Republican nominee again, as Jill Stein’s campaign did in 2016. However, West has supporters who see his run as a way to push Biden further left on issues. Still, even some progressives acknowledge West could hurt Biden’s chances of reelection. Democrats argue that beating Trump and enacting progressive policies requires electing Democrats first.
jill stein was at a dinner seated with vlad putin and mike flynn. she compromised. i wouldnt trust the american green party as far as i could throw cornell west.
My feelings exactly. Just being at that dinner with Putin and Flynn is all I needed to see to understand where her allegiances lie.
