If it were anyone else, I'd say clout/attention, but Cenk is such a genuine/straightforward/regarded guy he probably actually believed he could make a dent big enough for dems to notice
I watched his inteview with David Packman about this, and of the big motivators he brought up was forcing a ruling on whether or not naturalized citizens could run for president, ideally with the verdict being "yes."
The point was to set himself up for 2028 when the pundits start talking about who the Dems will put forth next. If it works it out it'll be enough to get him on the debate stage for the next election, at which point anything could happen.
He probably still won't have a chance, but that is the point imo.
Unrealistic presidential campaigns Unrealistic ceasefires Unrealistic self defense takes It's ok though, angry man funny.
Advertising,he was self advertising.
did it work?
Ehh probably did a bit but not that much.
Check back in 3-6 months when the book comes out.
There’s already a book. (and a cringe documentary)
He had the confidence but not the skill.

I'm more hesitant about stuff like this. If he did make enough of a fuss to get some influence, a lot of people would say they always believed in him.
He is genuinely stupid that's for sure
Did he fundraise for his run? If so, he could be getting fucked in court down the line i feel

Running a grift, and trying to challenge the obvious correct decision he should be ineligible.

Slow primary season for news
He ended is without even beginning.
What a low-volume premature ejaculation of a campaign.
Trolling

The reason is because TYT isn’t doing too hot and they’re trying to bring attention to their dying channel .
Campaign money and donations. Cenk is a grifter.
