The same dynamic that led to Hillary being the nominee in 2016 because it was ‘her turn’ and Biden, the second worst candidate, being ordained in 2020, will lead to them running him in 2024 no matter what. The leadership of the DNC cares about one thing: quashing internal dissent. They’ve proven they give 0 shits about the GOP winning an election, but they do NOT tolerate internal dissent.

Because he’s an arrogant, venal sociopath who’s been running for this office since he had to drop out in 1988?

If only he were part of a political party that could execute policy matters without him, as opposed to solely developing and passing legislation and department policy by hand…

At this point it has negative votes. The neolibs are literally downvoting reality to try to protect the man who will make them lose to a man they claim will be a dictator if elected. It’s truly amazing how they’ve become Blue MAGA.

Yeah, where was all this “The president can just have you killed without due process!” outrage when Obama had a Denver born 16yo citizen killed without due process? Neolibs haven’t held this party to account since the 90’s, and are now surprised (or unconcerned) that it’s become a social club that cares more about maintaining internal control than winning elections.

For the people who are actually on the DNC rules committee and run the party, the DNC is their social club they want absolute control of. They only participate in elections to fundraise so that they can run ads and take a cut of the ad spend to fund the party and their own lifestyle. If anything, a Trump dictatorship, as long as it allows fundraising and ad spending in “opposition” actually benefits them just fine. And if there’s no possibility of them winning, only the most glassy-eyed cultists remain in the party so no more internal dissent, which is perfect for them.

If the neolibs put 1% of the energy they spend downvoting hard truths into demanding their party try to win rather than maintain internal control of the party, they’d be up by 10 points in the presidential race

Neolibs love downvoting over pressuring the party they love like Heaven’s Gate members to switch out candidates.

Yes! They ARE blue MAGA. It’s insane.

Neolibs: “It is wrong that the GOP has become nothing more that a vehicle for Donald Trump’s ambitions.”

also Neolibs: “It would be wrong for the DNC to be anything more than a vehicle for Joe Biden’s ambitions.”

This kind of in-accountability, where you neolibs cover for Biden and the DNC like a child hiding their alcoholic parent’s empty nip bottles, is A) sad and B) to blame for being in this situation to begin with. Enjoy they fruit of your labors.
