Coleman Hughes Official
Dr. Cornel West: Is America Living Up to Its Promise?
What was said
"I was trashed by by the Democratic Party and Obama's people and Clinton's people and Biden's people, you the worst things. I'm just trying to tell the truth. You don't want to come to terms with the foreign policy and these drones. You don't want to come to terms with genocide in Gaza, however you characterize genocide. That's the Democrats. That's not just the Republicans."
West describes being attacked by operatives connected to Obama, Clinton, and Biden during his 2024 presidential run. He attributes the attacks to his willingness to criticize Democratic foreign policy, specifically mentioning drone warfare and what he characterizes as genocide in Gaza. West insists he was equally critical of Trump's neo-fascist sensibilities but rejected claims he was helping Republicans.
