continuing to fight a primary that is already over. I almost feel sorry for Gabbard, who thought she was hitching her wagon to a rocketship and instead found out it was a dud firecracker. Now she's just an angry embarrassment, her and Nina Turner both. They burned their bridges with the DNC and now want to pretend like they should have influence? Any form of control? What a joke they've become.

Stunts like these are just to keep her name in the newspapers. Wait and see, all of the Bernie surrogates are going to adopt the same Trump-like allergy to facts and addiction to attention. Say/Do whatever it takes to keep the cameras focused on them, in other words. Gabbard, Turner, Weaver, Uygur, all of these "progressives" care more about their own profiles and brands than building a coalition. Makes me wish real life had an Ignore feature.
