Hogg, who has levied harsh criticism over elderly Democrats' refusals to step down from their posts, will continue supporting primaries against senior members.

Told to resign from the vice chair or resign from calling out bad octogenarian DNC members. And then they made the decision for him.

Apparently DNC chair Ken Martin cried to Hogg that his chances of raising money and looking like a leader has been crushed by this, in a leaked call.
Ignoring that this is a projection and example of his leadership.

As a reminder 3 members of the DNC have died over the age of 70 this year already.

    Being idiots and being wrong doesn’t mean you lose fights. If it wasn’t risky to attack Biden, despite the blatantly obvious need to get him out, it wouldn’t have taken weeks of nobodies trickling out in opposition before anyone of significance took the step.

    Hogg being more directly hostile to centers of power in the Democratic party would absolutely not have made him win the fight to keep his position in the power structure. Thinking that’s how politics works is just delusional.

      Your literal response is why I think you have no conception of what works in terms of politics. Your framework was WRONG. It didn’t predict things. The people you rely on for their “popular wisdon”: They GOT IT WRONG!!

      If you keep just reusing the same mental frameworks when they don’t predict future states of the world, NO ONE, should listen to you. If your mind doesn’t agree with the evidence, you need to change your mind dude.
