I have no trouble criticizing democrats for their abject failure in 2024 (and before), but to say this is the same as Trump’s behavior is ludicrous.
It’s important to remember that this shit is why DNC voting members finally kicked the neoliberals to the curb.
And that blaming the new DNC leadership for all the fucked up shit the last chairs did makes no rational sense.
A new chair was seated in mid February, and they actually are for party unity and fair primaries. Not the bullshit “party unity” where neoliberals bashed the left 24/7, an actual non biased political party who will let the voters decide who makes it to the general
We haven’t had that in half a century
In other words, Politico is gunning for the low hanging fruit and ironically enabling a further divide.
The media started being critical of Dems the second Ken Martin was elected DNC chair
Billionaires aren’t happy with trump, but without the DNC blocking progressives in the primary, they’d rather burn the country down than let someone like Bernie or AOC be the candidate.
That’s why there’s such a big push for people to be mad at the DNC after we fixed the main problem with it. The billionaires don’t control the DN anymore, and they can’t control trump.
All leadership being deferred to a national party is the problem. You cannot fix the DNC when it’s existence is largely the problem. No National parties should really exist for more than 6 months every 4 years. Just long enough to coalesce behind the candidate the people voted for and help promote them through the general election. Then disband. Just as the House and Senate really wasn’t supposed to exist for more than a few months a year. Outside planting and harvesting times. So as not too monopolize people’s livelihoods.
Bad presidential candidates, oligarch control, and many of our other National political issues are symptoms of this. When so much power is left idling in the hands of so few highly unaccountable individuals. They won’t resist using it for themselves. As is evident.
Is this true? What makes you say this?
