Even the voting members of the DNC learned that lesson after the last presidential election.
That’s why they pulled Ken Martin out of Minnesota to chair the DNC.
It’s just frustrating to see so.many people claim they know what needs to be done, when they’re completely ignorant of what happened over 6 months ago.
It’s like if you’re actively making your kid dinner, and he walks in and says he’s hungry and wants dinner. Yeah. We knew that 20 minutes ago when we started cooking dinner for you.
Ken Martin’s first act was to tap Slotkin for the state of the union response speech. He’s just a small tad better than the last DNC chair, but he’ll keep the party supporting genocide and doing whatever Aipac and industry wants.
Neoliberals spent decades conflating the DNC with House/Senate leadership.
So it’s understandable so many voters do, but it’s still frustrating having to explain this so many times.
House/Senate leadership used the DNC as a cudgel against their own party.
If a rep didn’t vote for House/Senate leadership like the DNC wanted, the DNC would cut them, or even their whole state off financially. Even if that meant a Republican won the seat.
The DNC didn’t elect a neo liberal that would go along with that. But the DNC chair election was after the House/Senate leadership elections, there won’t be another till the next Congress after midterms.
That’s why there’s the disconnect you’re talking about.
She’s right…
But she’s waaaaay behind.

I’m genuinely curious why you think this. I’ve seen precisely the opposite from party leadership. What have you seen that indicates this

I think he meant that party leadership hasn’t learned their lesson.
