I think he’d be great in the cabinet, although I know in the past he said he’s not interested in that (president or bust).

*Can someone explain the downvotes?

        He had a good thing bringing UBI into the national conversation, other than that he comes off very disingenuous and self-interested to me, and lacks the qualifications for the positions he has run for.

          Also, his UBI was essentially a demolition of the welfare state. No conservative actually wants to give you money without strings attached.

          Yes, I called him a conservative. Because he is.

    *Probably because the question is political in nature and people are fed up of seeing it outside of political subs. I know this is nostupidquestions but during (American) election season especially it’s somewhat an etiquette to exercise political hygiene.

        Well, today I learned the USA has a “Forward Party” and someone called Andrew Young who founded it 😅 I can’t contribute anything of substance here. I also think that question would be a better fit in some community dedicated to US politics.
