Something that makes her a traitor to the cause she claims to represent.

...the Bernie Sanders voter. A smarter politician would try to meld them with the Trump voter. Even smarter, would be to emphasize the Trump side, because they may have to find a new leader; Hillary is gaining, Trump is losing. Granted, it's a tough job - but a politician able to get both "disaffected" groups would be a real force. Jill is always going to be minor. She can't win with a small fraction of Sanders voters - hmmm, wonder if she's working for Trump?
