If House Democrats don’t use every tool at their disposal to name names, kick ass, and stop further destruction, there will be hell to pay with the base.
The DNC is the party and it’s a dictatorship under the chair…
The current chair spent the last decade turning Minnesota from purple to Blue, filled with some very progressive Dems. In the middle of “the heartland”…
I think your confusion is you think Schumer/Jefferies have any power, they’ve been lame ducks for all but two weeks of this Congress
Because their power came from a neoliberal DNC willing to withhold state party funds.
Those funds are gone, given to the state parties. There literally is no more “club” for Schumer/Jeffries to wield
Like, it’s really not that complicated, but I feel like Im constantly explaining this shit still…
People need to put more emphasis on the funding thing when discussing this, Schumer and Jeffries basically lost the only thing they had to throw around. It’s entirely possible that if the Dems take the house and/or Senate either of them could be thrown from influence simply because the Congress critters don’t need to worry nearly as much about funding. Hell you could even see a situation where Schumer and/of Jeffries are pushed into supporting more progressive shit simply because the new blood can about them down without worry.
