Getting rid of Biden loyalists and bringing in Obama people was really smart. They know you can't just expect people who were going to vote for Trump to not do it now that she's the presumptive (at this point we can just probably drop the presumptive) nominee. You have to do the work.
Obama's people were really good at both doing the work themselves and organizing others to do so.
On one hand I reaally want Bernie to call on the old 2016 grassroots crowd. On the other hand I expect that would backfire.
If it didn't though, the potential wave of support would be tremendous. It's then reassuring that Harris is showing initiative within the party, something we've missed for many years.
Bernie told people to vote for Biden this year. I'm sure he'll put his support behind Harris as well.
That's an odd thing to say "Biden loyalists" when there's no Biden running. There's literally nothing to be "loyal" to.
But let's separate this out, she brought on Obama campaigners because she needs the energy they brought to the election campaign. When it comes to her staffing the administration if she wins, I wouldn't be surprised if she brings back many of Biden's secretaries and other staff, who you would call loyalists but really are just good workers.
I can't help what they're called. Just do a search for "Biden loyalists."
