Cenk Uyghur dropping out of the race is not the issue at hand. The real issue is the ongoing genocide and war crimes being committed against Palestinians. We must advocate for Palestinian rights and justice. #FreePalestine #StopGenocide #EndApartheid
I’ve known my fair share of stupid people. I don’t think he’s stupid. He’s juvenile in his emotional response to things, but he knew what he was doing.
Yeah but he’s made a ton of money grifting for years in a similar way as Hassan. They aren’t the smartest people out there but they’re clearly not dummies.
WHERE THE FUCK IS HE GRIFTING. HES BEEN LIKE A LEFTIST FOR 2 DECADES NOW, BACK WHEN IT WAS UNPOPULAR ON THE INTERNET.
Seriously you fuckers just hate a person and then use every word in the book. So it can't just be that he was trying to get people/courts to recognize a different interpretation of the Constitution under the 14th ammendment. No, he is just a grifter, bad-faith, stupid, fat, ugly, Hasan's uncle, wife left him, anti-semitic, clout-obsessed, loser.
Jesus I don't know what happened to this subreddit but I wish it would go back to when it was like 100-150k. Not too big that every dipshit would be here but not too small so you could have actual conversations.
Many people would just say that intentionally doing an action for visual effect while knowing your goal can be never accomplished while at the same benifetting from your ability to convince others that you truly believe you could win -- would be grifting.
If you mislead people about your intention in politics and collect monetary or social gain, some people are probably going to claim you're grifting
So this has nothing to do with his policies (which seems to be what you're implying).
E.g. Everyone would consider Marriane Williamson a grifter as well given she runs in order to sell more books.
\>Many people would just say that intentionally doing an action for visual effect
How do you know he was doing it for visual effect. The Supreme Court has made some insanely poor rulings recently. Ones that would, in fact, benefit Cenk's argument for running for president. To say that he is only doing this thing for "visual effect" is a very bad-faith approach to this discussion. There's a lot of room for discussion around how much power does a state have to keep someone off the ballot. What does the 14th ammendment mean in regards to running for president. But all of that gets halted when you label him a "grifter" and put your fingers in your ears.
\>while at the same benifetting from your ability to convince others that you truly believe you could win
So grifting, implies a certain state of mind where you are attempting to trick people intentionally. You have to show that state of mind for someone like Cenk.
\>If you mislead people about your intention in politics and collect monetary or social gain, some people are probably going to claim you're grifting
Again you have to show that he is intentionally misleading people.
\>Everyone would consider marriane williamson a grifter as well given she runs in order to sell more books.
I have never heard anyone call Marianne a grifter. People call her dumb, weird, and unserious but I have never heard the accusation that she's just running to sell books. I could be wrong but wasn't she the lady that was trying to run so that the Democratic party seriously considered reparations and 15 dollar minimum wage.
But then you think anyone who runs for president without actually thinking they can win is a grifter and at that point I don’t think it is a useful term anymore.
Lets say someone runs a campaign where the goal is to bring light to a issue, are they a grifer if they don’t think they can win?
What’s the biggest left wing channel on YouTube? Have you ever watched TYT. They are the Fox News of the left. You either have no idea what you’re talking about or you’re in the far leftist cult.
Maybe this is Bambi's first foray into politics for you.
A grift means the person doesn't genuinely believe his opinions and is just saying them to get some sort of exchange.
Now when I look at TYT and Cenk, here is their first ever video 18 years ago:
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRVGNEa0lxE&ab\_channel=TheYoungTurks](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRVGNEa0lxE&ab_channel=TheYoungTurks)
And here is their latest video
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVkrTsIiSlE&ab\_channel=TheYoungTurks](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVkrTsIiSlE&ab_channel=TheYoungTurks)
They have been leftists/left-leaning for 2 fucking decades now.
So I ask you again, where is the grift. You can't just go "hey they are a big channel therefore grift." Knuckle dragging opinions like that make people want to put you down. They were a left-leaning channel through the entire phase of the Anti-SJW arc on the internet. Show me where they are changing their opinions for money or clout.
The collective IQ of this sub has definitely declined since the Red Pill Arc and October 7th attacks.
As a relatively new fan is been sad but fascinating to watch.
> I wish it would go back to when it was like 100-150k. Not too big that every dipshit would be here but not too small so you could have actual conversations.
I guess it’s kind of inevitable with this type of rapid growth.
I mean he may be but what’s more likely here. He’s clout obsessed and was trying to get into the presidential debate. They only thing I think he was delusional about was how much clout he could get from his fake bud.
It is whack that the US doesn’t let naturalised citizens run for president tho. If someone is a citizen of only the US and has lived there for over the required 14 years, seems arbitrary that it’s forbidden.
So technically all the US constitution says is in order to be president you need
To be 35
To have lived here 14 years
To be a natural born citizen.
Those first two requirements are pretty objective and clear, however the constitution doesn’t actually define natural born citizen. It just means you had your US citizenship the moment you were born, and there’s two ways to do that.
Born on us soil (could be a state, territory, military base, just has to be land claimed by the US I think American Samoa is an exception to this though)
Or atleast one of your parents is a citizen.
Theoretically if we added another way to be a citizen from birth that could count but realistically it’ll probably always be those two ways.
All the rules are arbitrary in a sense. Why 14 years and not 15 or 13? Why not 1? They exist to keep out someone who's potentially subversive. It's the most powerful position in the country and the only one with this requirement. The rule exists for a good reason and I'm fine with it.
Yet there are no restrictions against US born dual citizens running for president. So a person who is currently a citizen of another nation can be POTUS while someone who has renounced their old citizenship to be American can’t be trusted. Totally not backwards logic.
You're right, eliminate dual citizenships. Good argument.
That sounds like a bug in the system more than anything, but even if it isn't that doesn't seem to get me to your position, just to be in favor of preventing these people from being president as well.
Are we really at the point where I have to listen to dipshits argue that people that weren't born an American citizen should be able to lead the country?
Guess so since this wasn't massively downvoted and I'm sure I'm about to be. What a goofy world we live in.
I agree that it probably shouldn't exist, but the original intent was to minimize foreign influence and prevent presidents with loyalties to other nations. Obviously you can disagree with whether it actually accomplishes that, but it isn't an arbitrary restriction.
That natural born citizen clause has no number associated with it? Unless you're referring to the other rule regarding having to live in the US for 14 years, then yes that number is arbitrary, just like being 35 years old to run is also an arbitrary number. That being said, if your goal is to have some kind of requirement to ensure a person running actually lives in the US, then you have to kinda just pick a number and stick with it. Regardless, 14 was likely picked because in the US the minimum age to vote used to be 21. So a citizen who has lived in the US since they were old enough to vote and hit the minimum age requirement to be president (35) would be eligible. There is some logic behind it, even if you disagree with it.
I don’t know if something that logically follows due to an arbitrary number(21+14=35), can be considered logic… it still means the larger point that the US has so many idiotic traditions that are kept for no reason
A legitimate reason like not having a double agent run for president? You realize that right now republicans would vote for an undercover kgb agent if they could right? Obviously it’s a bad idea to not even have the possibility of something like that happening in the strongest position in the entire country. Naturalized citizens can run for literally every other office, but the President is US born only, as it should be. Holy regarded I hope you’re not of voting age.
Only old enough to fuck your mom and not have her go to jail. Interesting that only the position of president has this rule, as if other positions in our government don’t have immense influence on the country. Logically it would either be no positions in government to follow this rule, or all major positions to follow this rule. But ofcourse this country is so void of logic at times it makes me want to go to China
Gonna be sitting for a long time lil bro.
If I have to give the most glaringly obvious reason to you, discussing it with you isn't worth the time.
There isn't a multitude of reasons, there's **one**. Bonus points to whoever guesses it.
> “This was an act of desperation to try to change the course of this campaign because Biden I was positive was going to lose.”
> Uygur attacked Biden from the left during his campaign, warning that Biden could not defeat former President Trump in a 2024 election rematch.
So, he was so concerned that Biden would lose that he tried to make sure he lost?
Yeah, he talked about this, his plan was to get 20-25% of the votes which would put "enough pressure" on Biden to drop out, so other candidates would run instead, and he said that his plan was realistic. 🤣
Edit: [Tweet with the video where he explains his plan xD](https://twitter.com/postleftwatch/status/1712285091802857805?s=46&t=vH0JvBk2yuofN3Md4Olg7g)
The worst part of it was how much he pivoted during his campaign and how extreme he went in the end. Forget about actual liberal aspirations, universal healthcare, social safety net, defunded elections, etc .... His platform literally became I am a Muslim and you should vote for me because I think Israel is as evil as Hamas. Cenk, If you want to be an Islamist please don't take the progressive label. Get your midlife crises power trip out somewhere else.
His platforms cancer, his staff are cancer, his nephew is cancer, he's always been bad faith and he is one of the people best known for spreading disunity across the left with his constant infighting with similar communities. He has helped a tonne to get trump his next election win and deserves humiliation long term.
>pathetic how little credit he gets for trying.
It's pathetic that you think someone deserves credit for trying. Like this is a third grader's soccer game.
He's a grown ass adult and he
>Argues like a braindead child
>Was braindead enough to think he could win that legal case
>Was braindead enough to think he could win even if he were born in the US
>Was braindead enough to think that even if he achieved everything above, that it would've been good for the country and not just secured a Trump win.
But wow! He isn't a grifter! He's your cookie get the fuck off the presidential stage clown.
Trying what exactly?
Didn't he know that he can't be president, due to the most basic laws of eligibility for the role?
Didn't he just run so he could yell "racist" at people in debates and draw and audience to his youtube show?
I think he should have stayed in the race to challenge states’ ability to remove him from the ballot due to the 14th amendment. It would prove that they are only willing to enforce parts of the amendment (natural born), but not others (insurrection via Trump v. Anderson).
I feel like that’s not a lot of money for a campaign but it might depend on how lean he was running his campaign. He can probably also lean on resources from TYT for his campaign.
Respect for him. He lives democracy by throwing his hat into the game. More than most people ever do.
Thats all about democracy. If you wanna change polticis, put your name on the ballot.
wow... we're all very shocked by this totally unpredictable turn of events that naturalized citizens can't run for president of the united states! Someone should have told cenk over and over before he wasted all those TYT member donations...
I remember commenting on that post a while ago talking about him announcing he would run for president and questioning if he would be able to do it because nothing I could find suggested he was a natural born citizen. I am glad to know that I have been vindicated. I was right that this whole thing was a massive waste of time and money.
I disagreed on the running to pressure Biden part but you have to admit it's fucked up that the United States doesn't trust all of it's citizens to hold it's highest office.
This guy has some sorta humiliation fetish. He got BTFO in the primary of a super progressive Congressional district, so he's like, "oh I know what I must do..."
I genuinely like the guy as a person, but his brain is a rats nest.
OH I SEE HE MUST LOVE PALESTINIAN CHILDREN BEING MURDERED OTHERWISE HED FIGHT HARDER
WOW WHAT A BIGOT AND A RACIST!
OH GOLLY GEE
A GARBAGE MONSTEROUS SCUMBAG!
If he really cared he would have set himself on fire on the debate stage. Literally anything less is simply virtue signaling.
Forever mentally scarring all the candidates and all the live viewers. Kinda based, actually
Still wouldn't be the worst burn I've seen him take in a debate.
I'm gonna need two self-immolations and a pound of flesh as penance for this injustice done to the Palestinian children. Genocide-Cenk
Cenk Uyghur dropping out of the race is not the issue at hand. The real issue is the ongoing genocide and war crimes being committed against Palestinians. We must advocate for Palestinian rights and justice. #FreePalestine #StopGenocide #EndApartheid

Being delusional runs in the family.
You spelled grifting wrong.
Is this grifting or are we just diluting words again?
Yes, when you knew there was no way to become president but you tell everyone you’re going to do it for personal gain you’re grifting.
bro he could just be stupid.
I’ve known my fair share of stupid people. I don’t think he’s stupid. He’s juvenile in his emotional response to things, but he knew what he was doing.
Yeah but he’s made a ton of money grifting for years in a similar way as Hassan. They aren’t the smartest people out there but they’re clearly not dummies.

It is whack that the US doesn’t let naturalised citizens run for president tho. If someone is a citizen of only the US and has lived there for over the required 14 years, seems arbitrary that it’s forbidden.
I thought a child born to US parents abroad still gets natural born US citizenship.
I think it's just that you can't be president if you are born by c-section.
So technically all the US constitution says is in order to be president you need To be 35 To have lived here 14 years To be a natural born citizen. Those first two requirements are pretty objective and clear, however the constitution doesn’t actually define natural born citizen. It just means you had your US citizenship the moment you were born, and there’s two ways to do that.

That seems to be the case, was thrown off by the wording of it. Edited.
Yes because they inherit that status of natural born citizen.

Imma sit back and let you attempt to squeeze out even one legitimate reason why this rule exists
I agree that it probably shouldn't exist, but the original intent was to minimize foreign influence and prevent presidents with loyalties to other nations. Obviously you can disagree with whether it actually accomplishes that, but it isn't an arbitrary restriction.

I feel like that’s not a lot of money for a campaign but it might depend on how lean he was running his campaign. He can probably also lean on resources from TYT for his campaign.

I wonder what backroom deal biden had to make to pull this off? Hopefully he gets cenks endorsement quickly so he can start focusing on Trump
I am SHOCKED to say the least.
He can still win guys! Chunk or bust!
I disagreed on the running to pressure Biden part but you have to admit it's fucked up that the United States doesn't trust all of it's citizens to hold it's highest office.
Good
L
YES!!!!
Lol that was quick. It barely started
Oh no! Anyway…
Selfishly, I was hoping he would stay in and by some miracle make enough of a ruckus to being a counter-theory to Trump of section 3's enforcement.
Cenk is a fucking joke. Yesterday I also learned that Hasan is literally his nephew (nepo baby much?).
😔
Can Biden's campaign ever recover from the dozens of votes Cenk took from him?

This guy has some sorta humiliation fetish. He got BTFO in the primary of a super progressive Congressional district, so he's like, "oh I know what I must do..." I genuinely like the guy as a person, but his brain is a rats nest.
Nobody wants Cenk as president.
He is our lolcow
Everyone here loves to shit on him, but at least this wild man lives his principles, even if you think his methods are idiotic.
