Ok you’re just gonna keep moving goalposts and whattabouting. I hope you got whatever you needed out of this interaction.

Haha I would rather die

But you’re right I should have said democratic leadership instead of the DNC, despite them being heavily intertwined.

As for young people not caring about politics, that’s the bullshit excuse that gets trotted out every time our leadership fails to engage with young voters and consider their needs

Boomers make up 52% of the house, 68% of the senate, 55% of the Supreme Court, and 4 out of the last 5 presidents, despite being 21% of the population

Hogg’s actual quote was “ineffective, asleep at the wheel candidates,” and that we need “people, regardless of age, that are here to fight.”

Your phone would be ringing off the hook. Younger people run all the time. The DNC runs boomers against them almost every race

The average age of the 8 democrats who caved on the shutdown is 70. That includes fetterman who is 56

boomers have made the conversation about age by refusing to retire their political positions. Too many die in office. We had staffers puppeting congresspeople who were too old to work

he was right

They absolutely turned on him publicly, privately, in the media, and on social media.

I’ve been a democrat for 24 years and I’ve rarely been as ashamed of our leadership than in that moment for steamrolling him so thoroughly and right now for proving he was 100% correct

I didnt see any of that but that’s fucking gross as hell

It was like watching one of those videos where people throw things into the giant metal grinders and someone suddenly tosses in a titanium sphere

It’s real bad over there

Yeah it’s not like we are penalized for including punctuation here or anything jesus people need to think more than one layer deep
