You may be correct, but you left out another reason these nitwits are running....to get more money in their coffers.

A few ARE running to be chosen for VEEP.

These are NEW TIMES, though ALL of the Dems are using very old playbooks which no longer hold true. This is President Donald J. Trump and he has his very own, very unique playbooks/rules/style.

The Dems haven't been this fractured and the candidates this pigeonholed in their own trite little cubbies of "minority grievance categories, since 1984!

well that's true as well....they're always about the money flow! It's rather like Hollywood stars...they have to keep up with appearances and the league they are in. Politics is likewise....you're either asking for donations or taking donations....or machine washing, and they all do that!

I suppose some are up for VP if they win the election. But most are in it for the power and connections to wealth they will be privy to. You are right Trump has his own playbook...that goes for pretty much everything which is why they can't keep up with him. I love it that he is unpredictable and he knows how to bend with the wind.

The Dems could always know the plays pretty well because all the same people in their neighborhood were running and they ran against for decades.....Trump didn't join a party he became a party.

It's the most fascinating President I've ever known and fun to watch how he operates. Still he must always be prayed for because he is still just a man up against a formidable foe.
