Cornel West, one of the US’s pre-eminent philosophers and justice activists, said Joe Biden was “not a great or excellent president”, Al Jazeera reports.
“He was first and foremost an enabler of genocide in Gaza, with over 15,000 Palestinian children murdered,” West wrote on social media.
“The same cold-hearted rich donors” who supported Biden and the “Democratic Party’s militaristic agenda” will now shift their attention to “sister [Kamala] Harris or someone else with the same policies that neglect poor and working people,” he said.
