Bernie Sanders' progressive group has surprised critics by endorsing billionaire Tom Steyer for California governor, marking the first time a major anti-billionaire organization has backed a self-made billionaire in the state's gubernatorial race. The decision has been met with skepticism from some who see it as an inconsistency given the group's platform against wealth inequality. Despite this, Steyer is seen as a strong contender in the crowded field of candidates vying for the Democratic nomination. The endorsement may also help to humanize Steyer and raise his profile among voters.
