some Democrats and progressives are ready to follow this dude off a cliff. I'm not buying his act
Eh it's not really an act. He's running on the Democratic Party platform while talking well about electoral college reform, statehood, the filibuster, and court expansion. He's not for M4A, he doesn't talk about race, income inequality, the financial sector education, or foreign policy (he will be consumed by the blob) in a meaningful way (or at all in some cases).
When it comes to rhetoric he's better than everyone to the right of Warren... but it's only rhetoric.
Basically, he's Obama without the generational talent.
