To all the people who aren't happy with @AndrewYang joining CNN:

Let me explain to you why you shouldn't be upset and why it's actually a brilliant move to set him up for a 2024 run.

First of all, it gets him more name recognition. That's one thing he was lacking this entire time; nobody knew who he was. And not only will more people know who he is, but they'll see him as a legitimate voice in politics.

Secondly, it allows him to keep putting his ideas out there until he runs again. While we continue to spread his message on the ground, he'll be doing it on TV. Support for UBI, ranked-choice voting, Democracy, etc. will continue to rise.

He adds a reasonable, less polarizing voice to the media. The presence of his pragmatism and willingness/ability to unite people will help keep people willing to hear a message like his when the next election rolls around.

And most importantly, he's making connections in the mainstream media. He's working to make them favor him next time instead of ignoring him. He's preventing another media blackout from happening next time.

(5/6)
While y'all are having these knee-jerk reactions of "why, after what the media did to him," and "he's a sellout," Andrew is out here playing 4-D chess to ensure his success in 2024. This move fixes so many problems. Trust him, he knows what he's doing.

Nice
