Hey friends! It’s been awhile!
In this episode, after explaining where I’ve been for the past two months, I share all of my thoughts on the 2024 presidential primaries.
Here’s the gist:
Per usual, all of the Republican candidates suck, but I’ve been enjoying watching the RNC candidates tear each other to shreds.
Marianne Williamson is by far the best offering from the Democratic Party, but she still has quite the uphill battle to wage.
While Dr. Cornel West has a great platform of policies, this candidate faces an even steeper uphill battle, as his run for President with the Green Party means he’ll only have ballot access in 17 states.
Thanks for watching!
