    I think they sorta reasonably might have thought kamala would be another Bernie, who was pulling republicans from trump during the primaries against Hilary. They thought kamala had that sort of appeal.

    It’s not sound logic, but I think someone in politics who doesn’t understand what drew people to Bernie could see the parallels and conclude if they focus on it, they can draw those Republicans in.

      And then acted entitled to the votes of a hostage electorate, just like Clinton did.

      Reasonably? For what reason?

      Bernie didn’t win the Presidential election. He couldn’t even win the nomination.

      “Let’s try something that has failed, instead of doing something fundamental that we have repeatedly used before to win elections.”

      “Let’s try this idea! It’s just Trump, who has won before. No worries”

      Come on, she is not that stupid.

      They are not that stupid.

      Side note: They collected over a billion dollars for this failure (that we know of). New record!
