In this day and age, the two are converging. Have been for years.


Yesterday one of the bernie supporters linked a piece put together by the Daily Show highlighting Klobuchar's "lameness". I could care less if she's lame or a bad joke teller or not charismatic enough. To me, Warren is lame, with things like her phony quivering voice when she's trying to sound empathetic. But she rode that bullshit to the top of the progressive polls until her obvious insincerity in, well, just about everything, cost her. Like when she suddenly waffled on Med for All when the political winds shifted on her.

Charisma has always been important. I think a significant chunk of Trump's support is about nothing but entertainment value. Look how they cheer him at his pep rallies when he goes into unintelligible stream of consciousness rants. They just think he's funny.
