MSNBC's Garrett Haake on SheThePeople2020 Democratic Candidates forum:Link to tweet Talked with 20 or so attendees of #SheThePeople2020 afterwards. Consensus was that @ewarren gave strongest performance. @KamalaHarris & @CoryBooker very well-received & @BetoORourke got some respect for working for support. @BernieSanders lost the room.

1. Poor Bernie is incapable of moving beyond his talking points.
Apparently he lacks the ability to listen to questions or actually think on his feet. It's all just the same tired talking points.

2. Sanders came off as unprepared
It was kind of like listing to the high school principal at an assembly. It seemed to me like he wasn't properly prepared for the room he was speaking in.

6. I have to wonder if he even consulted those WOC on his staff that he so publicly announced
he hired.
If he did, he either didn't take them seriously, or he forgot whatever they briefed him on. Did he hire them for expertise or to just to get people off his back for historically surrounding himself with a small cadre of old white male advisors. ![]() primary today, I would vote for: Elizabeth Warren |

8. He seems to want everyone to come to him. He can't go to them.
It’s a stunningly entitled delivery of a progressive message. He’s doing more harm to it than good I think.

32. Declaiming from a podium, yards away from the nearest person, with no questions
to distract from his usual talking points seems to be the only place he is comfortable.
Having to listen to people and answer questions on topics he's not interested in, or informed about, then being called out by them when he tries to derail and get back to his memorized pitch, not so much. ![]() primary today, I would vote for: Elizabeth Warren |
