Neither party would be particularly interested in working with him, very little would get done

Other than conspiracy shit he's not particularly radical in any of his personal beliefs, the left of Biden on some issues, to the right on others, but I haven't seen any issues where he is as left as Bernie is besides some foreign policy beliefs, which is also a mixed bag

He's basically an economic sort of radlib mixed with reactionary beliefs and an inconsistent view of US empire

I think his most revealing stance is that he believes pharma companies are evil and poisoning the nation (true), but he doesn't believe in a publicly run drug company and his only solution is to regulate lobbying better. Radlib
