    this is honestly one of the lamest grifts I’ve ever seen in my life…How does his co-host not collapse from second-hand embarrassment?

    The worst part of this video is he thinks he would collect 25% of the vote LOL. Lefties are genuinely bat **** crazy.

    I don't even think Cenk could win a mayoral race of a small town. Hilarious

    They've always been misinformation and disinformation merchants from the start. Like all the other cable news wannabes on social media that have no restraint they're struck from the same coin but differed from most by being on the other side.

    They were good when they started. Bias. But good.

    They were one of the only left media orgs pushing back against the Iraq War and supporting marriage equality in the mid 00s before those things became popular and were embraced by the national democrats.

    They also backed Obama and single payer before those things saw greater popularity.

    As time went on they sold their principles for exposure and then when trump happened they completely lost their minds.

    to b honest he's not gonna come close to garnering 25% of the vote, his name alone will deter many voters.

    Biden vs Uygur, yea it aint happening.

    Hard to get 25% when he probably won't even make it to the ballot in like half the states.

    6 years ago I would never imagine his nephew, Hasan, being the more rational person with more nuanced views than Cenk.

    But Cenk has gone off the deep in in the past 4 years.

    I'm assuming you are sarcastic about Hasan running lol. Dude outside of lefty online communities is seen as a clown or people don't know him at all.

    Looks department he wins over any candidate. He wouldn't run because his current business is far too lucrative. My guess is Cenk's is crashing. A vast minority of Hasan's audience knows who Cenk is

    President Camacho has always gotten a raw deal. He wanted what was best for the country and even transferred power peacefully at the end of the movie to a person who he beloved could better run the country.

    Hasan Piker was born in US so that gets past the natural born question but he’s only 32 and would still only 34 by the time of swearing in.

    Besides the fact as noted he has little to no name recognition or experience in government

    Ya I want you to explain it. I remember him talking about how Hamas is a religious extremist anti-communist organization that does't care about the people the government. I remember him saying that. What else did he say?

    I don't want you to post reaction of reaction of reaction videos. Do your basic work in information gathering and go to direct links of him.

    You aren't a maga boy who posts tweets and YouTube videos without any intellectual curiosity to spam a narrative.

    He's a total fraud but this is a new era of politics. He's popular and people buy his BS. That the only thing that matters when it comes to getting support.

    As a Muslim American the last few days has really disgusted me. Seeing the pro terrorism takes has been so so depressing. I've honestly lost most faith in this country. Way to divided and way to partisan.

    Looking to move abroad next year after I sell my business
