I empathise with West.
He's a Marxist who wishes to see a complete structural change of the current system.
He's right in that Hillary and Neoliberalism are awful.
In terms of economics there is hardly a difference between Hillary and Trump.
HOWEVER, in terms of social policy Hillary and Trump couldn't be more different. But the thing West understands, as a scholar, is the fact that you can't solve these social problems without tackling economic ones.
Hillary may have pushed for progressive policies, as many of these neoliberals do, but if they're also perpetuating laseiz faire capitalism, well then their progressivism is simply pandering for votes.
That being said Hillary is still better than Trump.

Provide me data showing voting third party has helped the advancement of blacks.Provide me with data showing that wealth and other standard of living gaps between blacks and whites get closed with Dems in charge. Show me some candidates and I throw some money their way
Whites w/o graduating High School have a higher median wealth than blacks that finish university. If Dems can't come of with something that can change this, among other things, than I've got nothing for them
Use comparative data between democrats and republic.
Subscribe to a view of politics that is realistic.

Ive said it time and time again and I'll say it again
If I lived in America, even in one of the counties that decided the election, I would have still NEVER voted for Hillary Clinton, not even if I was the deciding vote. fukk her and fukk everything she pretended to stand for.

Im not sure what's going on, you can be critical of a Democrat without being pro-Trump
The only thing I disagree with West is equating Hillary and Trump is the same
They are both establishment picks that lean toward their corporate interests and is corrupted but its very clear Hill got a clear step above trump in terms of ACTUALLY knowing policy experience and I'd personally trust her to be able to do the job as president
Do I believe most of the things she said on the campaign ? Hell no but I do think it is important to make that difference and stop falling into this idea that their equally
At this point in time, every thing Trump has critized Hillary over he has out done her on 100x over
He's violating the amulument clause by influencing and accepting foreign agents to stay at his property
He's trips to maralago takes government funds and puts it into his pocket
His has flip flopped on nearly everything policy wise except the TTP
Now he's literally just fired the head of FBI for investigating him
Let's be real y'all, y'all think Hillary would equate to this incompetent fool if she was elected?

not in higher learningbut what's going on here is when faced with questions they cant answer the modern left just calls you names 1 of them being trump supporter ie racist
Marxism, is ...well...stupid
Wrong
Theres a huge difference. Trump doesn't believe in regulation.
Neoliberalism is why Cornel is employed by universities despite having to go get a real job
Theres nothing wrong with supporting fair and regulated capitalism
undeniably.
