Cenk Uygur @cenkuygur 3h Can everyone please stop the dumb "from the river to the sea" chant? It is incredibly hurtful to our Jewish brothers and sisters. It's also incredibly counterproductive to protecting Palestinians. Do not chant something that majority thinks is call for genocide. Not complicated. Dec 11, 2023 · 11:09 PM UTC

      He was and is not eligible under current laws (as he has been told repeatedly by state election officials). The only good thing to possibly come out of this campaign is getting that law changed, but don't hold your breath because burgerland is way too fucking racist on aggregate to possibly tackle that.

      I think it's one of those things where he could run but legally he can't be president. I have no idea honestly. It was a blip in conversation about how Gruesome Gavin should run because he's hot and who the hottest president was.

      his argument iirc is that that clause should be considered overturned by the 14th amendment (?) which guaranteed equal protection under the law to naturalized citizens or something.

      He also cited like 4 other examples of people being elected despite having outright fake or tenuous claims to being born here
