Huh?
Two neoliberals superdelegate, at least one pledged for Hillary in 08 after Obama won the primary…
Both on the committee that didn’t follow DNC rules for the vice chair…
Same committee that’s been rigging primaries for neoliberals…
I get why the MSM is trying to lie about this and acting like it’s a bad thing, but I don’t know why so many people are falling for it
The voting members of the DNC elected this chair because they’re over neoliberalism.
And neoliberals have never really been fighters, so now lots of them are leaving the DNC.
Like… This is a good thing.
The DNC just needs to replace 128 Congress members, and they’ll be moving in the right direction
Guys guys guys.
I have an idea.
There’s a really interesting bit of French history I think we should look in to
The DNC is the National party…
What do you think they’d be doing about Congress members?
They collect the money from pacs and such, and distribute it to campaigns for people running for congress listed under the Democrats party…
It doesn’t matter which state you are in.
You’re talking about the “victory fund” Hillary started…
They’re doing the opposite now, where they’re giving all the money they hoarded back to state parties.
And that can be used for state level campaigns in the general. But they’re not going to giving money straight to individual state level campaigns anymore.
The response to decades of neoliberals fuckery isn’t to do the same fuckery back against them. It’s going back to how shit used to work, and that’s more than enough to get the neoliberals out of office.
Quick edit:
To be clear, I agree that old strategy was counterproductive.
It’s just that we’ve already fixed it.
People just don’t know because MSM wants the average voter disengaged from the Dem party in hopes it depresses dem primary turnout enough a neoliberals can squeak thru.
Please don’t fall for it, we’d be wasting our best chance since before Jimmy Carter to get the party back on track
Maybe I’m misunderstanding you, but is the DNC not collecting all of the donations from these pacs and distributing them? Let’s say Jefferies:
Or are you just saying it usually goes through the DCCC
Edit: I assume that is what you meant, issue there is the DCCC’s current leader is one that needs to go: Suzan DelBene
Why do you think I’m talking about the DCCC?
Why are you being up Jefferies?
I’m explicitly talking about the DNC, so is the article…
Even on your first reply, you explicitly said “DNC”
Dude, you gotta chill on the Ken Martin simping a little. Trying to spin public sector and teachers union leaders as just neoliberals and David Hogg as some problem is just detached from reality. Yeah, Weingarten endorsed Clinton in 2016, but she also supported Howard Dean for chair and endorsed Elizabeth Warren in 2020. She’s not some Third Way stooge. She’s the leader of a seriously important union in Democratic politics. If she’s the problem in the party that needs to be purged, we’re fucked.
You talk about finally fighting, but since he’s been chair… what exactly has he done other than mismanage it into bad news stories? Literally the only thing I hear from the DNC is drama, frequently for personnel conflicts that in no way were worth the fallout. David Hogg’s election wasn’t mathematically fair? Ok. Do better next time. Or add a temp position so the others can get their fair shot. Two union leaders supported your opponent? Cool, the election is over and you need to be able to work with them. Telling the heads of the AFT and AFSCME their input is no longer valued is just dumb. Nothing Martin has done warrants this level of devotion.
Yeah, that’s kind of what I gathered too.
It’s like everyone forgot billionaire owned media fucking lies…
If a billionaire tells you the DNC is fucking up, it’s worth a closer look. Because the goal of billionaires is almost always opposite to the goals of the Dem voting base.
The Guardian might be “on the left” but that’s using the same metric that would put Coumo “on the left”.
The United States is now a one-party dictatorship.
You’re mad a superdelegate that pledged to Hillary in 08 after Obama won the primary is leaving the DNC?
To you, that makes the Dem party more like the Republican party?
Can you clarify why that is, it just doesn’t make sense to me…
Wild to think they’re doing anything but sitting on their asses
