"There is a real question whether democracy is going to remain in the United States of America," Sanders said.

Some politicians are so fearful of former President Donald Trump retaking the White House that “they don’t really want to tell the full truth,” West said. “[Biden has] created the best economy that we can get. Is this the best that we can get? You don’t tell that lie to the people just for Biden to win,” West said in a clip played on CNN Sunday.

    Cornell West is a fraud paid for by the right wing. Please don’t fall for his bullshit. I’m glad Sanders sees it.

              i don’t think cornel west has been bought off. i tihnk he’s running to be president of the empire to dismantle the empire, and i think that because that’s what he’s said and i believe him.

          The ones that had their price was people like Bernie, who sold us out with his sheepdog rhetoric. Liberals love Bernie now that hes pulled back his mask and has fallen in line

      Everyone who disagrees with me is a paid shill, sure sounds like some rightwing cope.

      The centrist liberals pathological inability to tolerate even small amounts valid and reasonable criticism is part of why democrats keep losing elections.

        Where’s your criticism of Cornel and his unpaid taxes and child support?

              what is legitimate about this criticism? it’s ineffectual mud slinging: anyone who agrees with what cornel west says will not think this is a meaningful criticism at all.

              Thats a non issue made into an issue by racists that want to keep a non democrat challenger from running, dems love the black community as long as they stay in line and do as they are told. The moment they stray from the official narrative they need to go, exactly like they did with MLK. Democrats talk about protecting democracy while smearing challenger candidates, suing to keep challengers off the ballots, suing to keep RCV off the ballots and calling minorities too ignorant to understand it as justification. West has more in common with the struggles of the working class than out of touch politicians like Biden and Co

                Being half a million dollars in tax debt is not a non issue, are you insane?

                  No, while you are being distracted over bullshit like taxes you are probably not challenging issues like the DNC suing to keep RCV off ballots, why they feel entitled to every ones votes despite not earning them, why we are being told everything is great when we can all see its not. Democrats love a black man that does as hes told until he speaks out of line, then the daggers come out. They havent strayed to far from their plantation owner roots.

          Strawmanning your opponents is on page 2 of the rightwing playbook.

          Can you at least try to counter Dr. West’s arguments? If you can’t, then just admit it. There’s no shame in admitting weakness.
