(26,124 posts)In the summer of 2016 he asked his TYT audience if in the general election they'd vote For Hillary or Never Hillary. 20,000 votes, 83% Never Hillary.
He said he was "borderline shocked" it was that high. OF COURSE (said in a Cenk voice) most of his audience hated the fictional criminal warmonger Hillary he'd been frothing at the mouth about since the year before. She was more dangerous than Trump! For him it's a show, entertainment. Who knows if he believed any of the propaganda, but gullible people did, and they thought he was honestly reporting facts and not conspiracy theories and lies. He voted for Hillary.
Now he's running to join the "establishment" after all the anti-establishment "entertainment." I assume his fans think he's "authentic." That's show business.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
