He’s a moron and a true believer. I live in VT and have been watching him for years. He’s a 60s-era utopian with a very tenuous grasp on reality.
I will give him one thing - he does (or did) sincerely care about his constituency and he is sincere in his beliefs. But he’s completely delusional as to what they will accomplish.
He thinks that a perfectly-equal perfectly-perfect socialist utopia is actually possible and would suddenly transform the world into a paradise full of unicorns, rainbows and bunnies.

Well, I happen to know that bunnies prefer the free market. Don’t know about unicorns though.
