The DNC cited a procedural concern, but Hogg said it is “impossible to ignore the broader context” of his criticisms.

Trump is on a mission to crash our economy, disappear people without due process, and participate in flagrant public corruption — and voters still trust him more than Democrats,” Hogg said in his statement. “That is a massive indictment of our party.”

Thats a damning statement

He's right. There's no two ways about it, and I think it's nuts that you've got DNC enjoyers out here basically being like "okay, but you're being stupid, I swear if we just ran Hillary/Biden ticket in '28 and campaigned on only some tax cuts for billionaires and only partial suspension of Habeus Corpus, we'd win"

Its a double damning statement.

how brainwashed and hateful US voters are
how utterly useless the DNC are at combating it

It’s damned accurate.

I trust Trump to be trump. I don’t trust the DNC to calculate a tip
