Hogg, a 25-year-old gun control activist, who was elected the DNC’s vice chair, has sparked an intra-party uproar over his announcement that his political group, Leaders We Deserve, would be spending $20 million to challenge “asleep-at-the-wheel” Democrats in deep-blue districts.
“We, as the DNC, need to be seen as a body that can be trusted, that’s not putting its thumb on the scales,” a DNC member told Politico. “We have to be so strategic and careful with our resources right now. … So why are we in this circular firing squad against Democrats?”
Which side of the debate is this person trying to support?
If the DNC wants to be seen as trustworthy and not putting its thumb on the scales against its constituents economic interests, then it makes sense to try to repair the broken parts of the party that are largely seen as untrustworthy and favoring the donor class over the people who vote for Democrats.
So why are the corporate Dems shooting their own party in the foot by resisting changes to the failed status-quo?
Money.
Yeah right, they’ve never “put their thumbs on the scales”, lol. These people are as deluded as the Trump admin if they don’t think we’ve all seen what they’ve been doing. Do they think normal Americans, even Democrats give a shit about the DNC? Or that they have anything but contempt if they are aware of it?
