    Coming in a distant second was close ally Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). The pair recently went to various states with their Fighting Oligarchy tour. Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) placed third in the survey with 8%.

    Former Vice President Kamala Harris came in fourth with 6%. Following her was Pete Buttigieg with 5%, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) with 5%, Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) with 4%, and California Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) with 2%.

    LOL, Chuck Schumer didn’t even place. That gives me a little hope.

        Agreed, but let’s take a moment to recognize that he is the highest ranked Democrat in the country, and the fact that no one sees him as the face of the party should be humiliating for him.

          I fucking hope so.

          Other than just generally being far to the right of the people he’s supposed to faithfully represent, he’s so far in the pocket of fossil fuel interests that he needs a custom snorkel to breathe and he literally claimed that his “job is to keep the left Pro Israel” 🤮🤬
