Possible explanations for what Bernie could be playing at these days?

I used to think I understood the guy. Lately he's been getting crazier though. As I see it, it's one or a combination of:

1) He's enjoying the ego trip
2) He's praying to the email fairy
3) He wants Trump to be president to stick it to the DNC
4) He likes the money
5) He's totally delusional

I don't see any other options.

Best Wishes for higher order thinking skills to your digging it soon.

9. There seems to be some agreement that he wants to impact the party platform.

What's much tougher to predict is what impact, if any, his campaign will have on the future of the Democratic Party.
