In an unexpected turn of events, President Biden faces a new challenger for the Democratic nomination. Progressive Cenk Uygur, known for hosting the Young Turks show, announced his candidacy on Wednesday. According to the Hill, Uygur believes that Biden will almost certainly lose in the general election. Uygur, 53, joins Marianne Williamson as one of the few candidates challenging Biden for the party’s nomination. Meanwhile, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has chosen to run as an independent, further complicating the race.
In an interview with Semafor, Uygur expressed his determination to convince Biden to retire from politics. He believes that if Biden chooses not to run for reelection, he will be remembered as a hero who defeated Trump and successfully managed the economy. On the other hand, if Biden continues his campaign and loses to Trump, Uygur sees him as the antagonist in this political narrative. One potential obstacle to Uygur’s campaign is his Turkish heritage, as he was born in Turkey and later immigrated to the United States. However, he maintains that he is eligible to run for president under the “natural born citizen” clause in the Constitution, a matter that may require resolution by the Supreme Court, according to Axios.
