    Fucking just make this guy the face of the dnc and we can be done with all this shit already. Just fucking do it already. Pull the strings, pad his pockets, and get going with reconstruction.

    I swear to God if someone passes control of the dnc to bill burr we will skip 50 years of regression.

      If the DNC is still a thing in 4 years, we have utterly failed as a nation and we can drop the pretense of not being a 3rd world country. (Yes, I know we are in the definition…time to change that definition).

        The DNC isn’t going anywhere. GOP needs them to give the illusion of democracy. Only they will cede more and more power as they “lose” more and more elections.

            I played ball. I gave the DNC 8 years to sort this shit. They are a sunk cost. You cannot rely on them. Look at last fucking election. You can’t tell me it was strategy to get your ass kicked at every turn. Yes, yes, the media can shape your narrative any way you’d like but just look at the facts.

            1.) Your “ally” starts a war in the middle east and is so reckless it’s indistinguishable from genocide. Then, you tie yourself to that wagon alienating your entire base.

            2.) Your elderly leader runs for a second term despite everyone around him identifying his failing health and after he said he would be a “transitional president”

            3.) Despite his opponent being a raving lunatic the media crafts a narrative where the leader of your party is a geriatric joke that is so salient he is forced to step down. His entire campaign riding on one useless debate that hasn’t won a president elect anything in the last two cycles.

            4.) Despite every other developed country voting out incumbents because of world wide inflation you hand pick someone apart of the current administration to run. Even given the opportunity to distance themselves from the mentally feeble current president, they double down and say, “they won’t change a thing.”

            5.) You lie and say primarys can’t be held in 3-4 months

            6.) You run a black women with the strategy of appealing to right leaning moderates. Moderates who look at the inherent bigotry in the GOP and say, “that doesn’t bother me.”

            7.) You advertise that you’re endorsed by some of the most reviled conservatives of the last 25 years.

            If you’re running a campaign please make a rule; ‘we will not doing anything that if a 7th grader read it a text book 10-20 years from now they would laugh about how stupid we were.’

            I refuse to believe this party is so disconnected from reality that when faced with the threat of fascism, real fascism, this what they come up with.

      You can hand the keys of the DNC to a baked potato and it would do a better job than current leadership.

      I wasn’t always sold on the guy. He got a little too cozy with the “anti-woke” bullshit. But he always remained better than the best of that set, and somewhat distinct from them as well.

      After seeing his Kimmel appearance, I’m convinced. Hand him the keys.

        Was in the same boat for a while, still haven’t seen this appearance but he’s already turned that corner for me. Dudes one of the good ones it seems.
