He also implicitly says he's voting for Biden. Are they both shit candidates? One's a turd. One is actual nuclear waste. You may not want to hold them both in your hand but there sure is one you'd prefer.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Correct. Watch the whole interview. He gives a great answer.
we need to go out and defend democracy
My man you need to be endorsing one of these candidates, then
I'm not tryin to start the same argument we always have, because we've had it before, so I'll simply say that the options are:
- Biden is trash but I'm voting for him anyway
- Biden's actually not trash, here, look at this chart
There is no third option that's within the bounds of objective reality, and the fact that that's not where our media is located doesn't change that.
The fact that we only have those options is what's going to depress turnout enough to let Trump win on a technicality again.
Shithole country.
Watch his entire response https://youtu.be/VgI3jq3UFY8
I mean I probably will at some point; just based on that little snippet below the headline, maybe he is saying something general principle based and sensible. The both candidates are trash just got my hackles up 🙂
It was good. Did you watch him on CBS this morning? Think he expressed some of the same sentiment but made it clear that liberal outlets always ask him the wrong questions. Like is important to protect democracy. Instead they always ask about getting on board with Biden.

Charlamagne Tha God Explains Why He's Not Endorsing A 2024 Presidential Candidate https://youtu.be/VgI3jq3UFY8
And I should care about this why?
Charlemagne has a massive audience and significant influence over a ton of people. It matters because he matters to a whole lot of people, many of whom are underrepresented.
