Yup! But only one person had enough votes to potentially beat trump, which is how the system is designed. I checked last night, and I don’t remember the exact number, but Cornell West received something like 0.67% of the votes in my State. Knowing how the system works, we had one option to prevent a far right government, and it was a less right government. I didn’t design the system, I just live in it.
No one had enough votes to beat trump, and no one had any votes before everyone decided to hold their nose and half-assed support a candidate no one liked. Yeah, West and Stein and any other potential progressive candidate did poorly, everyone here was actively breaking their knees to knock them out of the race. From daily, hourly propaganda against everything but their policy, to actually banning them from participating in states elections. Everyone here fought more against progressive candidates than they did trump.
He specifically said he doesn’t endorse it other than because on each topic, trump is worse.
You know who else trump is worse than? Everyone! Bernie, AOC, jill stein, cornell west, any progressive.
