A closed-door meeting for House Democrats this week included a gripe-fest directed at liberal grassroots organizations, sources tell Axios.
It runs the primaries. That is its main job and that job is indispensible. Ideally, you shouldn’t care who is the chairman of the DNC. You should care who are the leaders of the congressional caucuses. Jeffries is terrible.
Only of the private organization known as the Democratic Party.
But look, this is the website of a government organization --> https://www.dems.gov/
Did you see that you had THREE results, not one? Did you see that their were 2 leaders mentioned by name, neither of whom is the DNC chairman?
Then send them your suggestions on what changes you would like to see in the DNC charter regarding how the primary elections are held. The DNC is obligated to stick to the charter, and process of how to hold primary elections can only be changed in between elections, like right now.
So you disagreed with the DNC’s decision after 2016 to change the 30 year old rule regarding super delegates, so that super delegates can no longer vote in the first round of the nomination?
This article was obviously referring to the House Democratic Caucus, not the DNC, because it mentioned Jeffries. So you were incorrect when you thought this was referring to DNC leaders. And it is weird that you have never heard about the House and Senate Democratic Caucus organizations. Because both of them are way more powerful and important than “The DNC”. If you are going to comment about politics on the internet, it is your responsibility to understand how things actually work and the differences between different organizations. Another good lesson I would like to point out here is that social media can distort reality just as much as the mass media can. You were a victim of this.
What is wrong with you? You are literally being obtuse and refusing to see what I’m saying. Are you trying to convince me of something while simultaneously not even understanding what I’m saying?
If you think you understand what I’m saying, explain it to me.
Are you saying the people in the article are not members of the private organization known as the Democratic party?
The people in the article are not members of the private organization controlled by the DNC and the DNC has no authority over them.
What did you just do? Why did you reword it that way? You are coming across as duplicitous now.
What do you mean, “reword it”? I didn’t reword anything.
The article mentions "Members of the Steering and Policy Committee — with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) in the room "
The “Dems” referred to in the araticle is clearly talking about the House Democratic Caucus (HDC) rather than the DNC. The HDC is a completely separate (and way more powerful) organization than the DNC.
Are you illiterate? I asked you a Yes or No question, and instead of answering it, you reworded it. Scroll up and try again.
