‘It’s Abominable’: Hogg’s Plan For Democrats Sparks Outrage
Story by Grace Hall • 9h
 
Democratic National Committee Vice Chair David Hogg has proposed a $20 million initiative to support younger candidates in Democratic primaries within traditionally safe blue districts. Longtime Democratic strategist James Carville has criticized the plan, emphasizing the need to prioritize winning elections. Tensions have risen as Carville has questioned whether the age of sitting Democrats is a significant issue for the party. Carville recently argued against Hogg's approach, labeling it a detrimental strategy that undermines the party's goal of defeating Republicans. Hogg countered that his efforts aim to address low approval ratings within the Democratic Party and that new voices are necessary to influence legislation.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

those younger ideas are just socialism, though, so it's not like he's adding anything new.

I think they are jumping the gun and being rash. They should give his plan a shot for a couple of election cycles.

  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
And yet another generation of serial political pedophiles targets the 'young crowd' like they have been for 60 years on the ideas of a 200+ year old dead European white guy.

Same old same old. But hey, thanks for recycling.
The Republic is lost.

Boomer Dems will not go quietly into the assisted living facilities.

Dems used to represent people, like deplorables.  Now, Dems just represent themselves, not their voters.
