Is she for real? Sen. Mazie Hirono thinks she's figured out why Dems have trouble connecting with voters [video]

The failure of Democrats to drown America in a Blue Wave this past November suggests that they still haven’t quite gotten the hang of capturing voters’ minds. Democratic Sen. Mazie Hirono recognizes that, and she thinks she’s pinpointed the source of their problem: The Democrats are just too damn smart.

No, really:

Not enough emotionalism & too much empiricism. Yeah, that’s def their problem ? https://t.co/68NPkCFpfk

With leaders like Mazie Hirono steering their ship, Democrats are definitely in great shape going into 2020.
