“Trumpism is not going to be defeated by inside-the-Beltway politicians,” he said.
Watched his townhall Friday, was pretty much the same he always says, but it’s been the same problems for decades now. So someone has to keep saying it I guess
Maybe if we keep voting for Republicans and centrist corpo Democrats we’ll finally fix the problems they haven’t been able to fix for decades!
You know what they say: the definition of insanity is trying something and failing so you change tactics!
New DNC chair seems halfway decent…
The problem for decades was Obama left the DNC in the hands of bitter neoliberals willing to do anything (including let trump win) to prevent a progressive from making it to the general.
We don’t need a savior running the dnc, just not a villain.
And I don’t think Ken Martin is a villain. So I’m being cautiously optimistic about the party while I can. It might not last long, but I’ll take all the silver linings I can get these days
Even if the head is halfway decent, clowns like Jefferies, Schumer and Pelosi aren’t going anywhere. I don’t expect to see the DNC do much better than it already is.
New DNC chair believes in the party being owned by the “good billionaires” as he calls them.
I’d argue that we need someone in the dnc leadership chair who can effect a culture change and get them representing people again instead of just donors. Thats a heavy lift that few could handle.
