I’m a boomer who, after voting blue my entire life, has had it with these empty suits. I got a fire in my belly to save the country for my kids and their kids. The MAGA Republicans are straight up evil. The Dem establishment, led by Martin, Schumer and Jeffries, is pathetic and useless. A pox on both their houses. Get me my pitchfork, I’m storming the castle.
Just about everything mentioned in this article is why I will not donate to the Democratic Party. They want to get rid of Trump, but they can't get rid of their own ineffective leadership? It's getting too close to the election? Martin has been a problem for months. I will vote for and donate to the individual Dems who want the progressive policies I want. The ones who want to change the system. Remember the cartoon with all of the people with cones on their heads running into each other? That's what we have here.
dude. the Dems are so out of touch. Holy cow. What they don't want to admit that is that they are just as beholden to AIPAC as the GOP. and they like that money. they like letting israel call the shots and they get all the glory and cash. THOSE DAYS ARE OVER. All I hear from Dems is the same old tired bullshit. And honestly, maybe if Trump wasn't dismantling and selling off every nut and bolt of our country to the highest bidder, they could call it in for another term. NO MORE. I am done voting for people who put A FOREIGN COUNTRY BEFORE AMERICA. DONE. I am sick and tired of watching a genocide on livestream. I refuse to vote for the status quo any longer.
I hope that Moskowitz wins; I like him. As for the DNC, I wish that members would focus on who can do the job; not who they like. But we are stuck now, so I can only hope that it works out. Going forward though, competence needs to be a must.
I like Kamala but omfg she needs to bow tf out already. we need FRESH faces and FRESH ideas not some scramble of the status quo with buzzier catch phrases
Martin needs to go, Chuck Schumer needs to go, Hakeem Jeffries needs to go…. Nothing good and lasting happens in the Democratic Party until that happens in conjunction with major changes in policy. The Democratic Party is in shambles and all national leadership needs to go, with Martin going first.
Spin, spin, spin! If Democrats don't make the gains they should in a mid term year with an unpopular President, what will people like you say? Ken Martin needs to be gone! Ben Wicklar would have been a much better choice. Martin's in over his head!
So lets get this straight, the same people who were all gung ho about "Stay the course" on Hillary, and "Stay the course" on Biden, right up until he demonstrated on live TV he was less functional than an Adderall addicted Septugenarian, and then "Stay the Course" on Kamala, and "Stay the Course" on Haley Stevens, are literally still "Stay the Course" on Ken Martin after he's literally lit the DNC on fire and stood shoulder to shoulder with Chuck Schumer and the corpo Democrat cowards pretending that ignoring the fascism is a solution to Trump 2.0.
I don't misunderstand why that's their message, but my serious question is: why would anyone with two brain cells listen to the likes of Ken Martin or Donna Brazile at this point other than to give them their last requests. Why would anyone listen to ANY of DNC leadership that has such an established track record of losing every single time it mattered?
But hey if the Democratic party is willing to lose in 2028, I have no interest in stopping them for the simple reason that all of the time bombs that Trump and company have been embedding in policy, the economy, the markets, and everything else are not going to not explode just because Democrats lost. Its far too late to pretend to undo them, so whoever is president in 2028 will be presiding over the end of Empire for the US, along with the worst policy and economy since Bush 2 handed the great recession he had personally created to Obama. Better them than us, and considering what their plans (LOL) are for fixing the next recession, by the time 2032 comes along the people will be clamoring for someone to shoot the MAGATS in the street, assuming theirs still a country by then.
why is Donna Brazile even still a thing? UGH. Hasn't she done enough damage. Her and that Debbie Wasserman lady. I should have realized then when the DNC didn't hold them accountable for that bullshit with Bernie that the DNC was just another group of corp charlatans
Nothing that can happen will restore sanity in November, it will just make the Democrats convenient scapegoats for the largest market crash since at LEAST 1987 and a global financial crisis on the scale of the great recession without a single ally to help us buffer the shocks. And that ignores the fact that the Iran War will still be going on and the US strategic oil reserve will be a wet sucking sound before then.
Agree Lauren is not helping the pro-democracy coalition, of which the Bulwark is a leading member, defeat Trumpism by putting the focus on the dysfunctional Democratic operatives when uniting around the primary winners, WHOEVER THEY ARE, is all that matters.
I doubt that Lauren was hired to help the pro-democracy coalition. Presumably she was hired to tell the truth about her beat -- the Democratic party.
Thank goodness that the Bulwark wasn't blowing sunshine up our asses when they called for Democratic nominee Joe Biden not to run again in 2024, and then to drop out when he did run, while the Democratic party begged the pro-democracy coalition to deny the evidence of their/our own eyes and ears.
She’s telling only the partial truth. As I said, she’s putting the focus on the dysfunctional Democratic operatives when uniting around the primary winners, WHOEVER THEY ARE, is all that matters. If she just focuses on the dysfunctional leaders, does that help Dems win the midterms? And isn’t that the only outcome that serves the interests of the prodemocracy coalition?
Clearly the DNC is pathetically out of touch with voters! We have better tuned in people here in states than the "leadership" - including Brazile Schumer Jeffries Martin- the whole tone deaf lot! Go ahead guys, make us lose in November! Autopsy will be before then unless you all wake up! You're not WOKE, just broke!
Why is this guy Ken Martin currently (still) running the DNC and I can't seem to get a job interview? Talk about failing upward!

After the election Martin must be forced out
Debbie Wasserman Schultz has always been kind of an asshole, and this really takes the cake.

Totally irrelevant I know, but someone named a baby girl ' Minyon ' ? 😳😳 Wtaf?

Well, they don't seem to be rallying the Iowa Caucus back to the head of the line. That's good.
But then a Harris PAC is helping Peltola, who finds it unhelpful. Has Martin checked to see if the camps have exchanged phone numbers?

Replace Ken Martin.
Austin is a great town. So glad everyone had a great time.

Your comments are not helpful. Regaining sanity in November is the isuue.
Nothing that can happen will restore sanity in November, it will just make the Democrats convenient scapegoats for the largest market crash since at LEAST 1987 and a global financial crisis on the scale of the great recession without a single ally to help us buffer the shocks.
