Hasan Piker Begs Establishment Democrats to Defend Him

“Highly controversial progressive streamer Hasan Piker demanded establishment Democrats come to his defense this week, warning that the GOP will weaponize him to the detriment of the left as a whole,” Mediaite reports.

Said Piker: “I know we don’t always see eye to eye on a lot of stuff, but you have to, literally, at some point—I know you don’t want to do this—defend me.”

He added: “Not because you love what I have to say, not because I’m a part of this coalition, even though I am, whether you like it or not, but you are going to inevitably have to say, ‘This is a ridiculous conversation that we’re having,’ because the real conversation that Republicans don’t wanna have is the cost of living crisis. That requires you, at some point, to basically take the L a little bit, okay, and maybe be a little more honest about how I’m not this dangerous, toxic, radical force.”
