Kamala is definitely seen by some as part of the establishment, given that she seems to be the choice of the donors/Clinton elite, (what?) didn't prosecute Mnuchin, ect. But unlike Hillary, who took anti-progressive stances (single payer will never ever happen), (this isn't true) Kamala has actually supported single payer healthcare and tuition free college initiatives. Should she sit down with groups like TYT and reach out, or would it be a fools errand?
FTFY. Yes, she should sit down with progressive groups and give them interviews, as any Democrat should. No, not with TYT.
Yep.The whole “she’s the choice of Clinton donors”” is such hyperbole and basically inaccurate. If you look past that fundraiser in the summer she has actually benefitted far less from Clinton patronage than almost all of the perceived 2020 field ( Booker, Gillibrand, O’Malley etc).
I mean even the article that was posted about her “ inevitability” the other day literally has one major Clinton/Obama donor singing her praises while another prominent clinton donor said it’s too early for her
(the latter by the way held a fundraiser for warren in the summer and is known to be courting warren for 2020). So I really don’t get why people are still talking about this as if it’s a fact because there clearly isn’t a concensus.
TYT is just funny to me. Cenk said she was a great progressive ca summer 2016 when she ran for senate ... the minute she was in the same room as a Clinton donor like one time he changes his tune..
