Young Democratic “reformer” David Hogg turns out to have learned a thing or two from the establishment he damns.
The lefty activist has parlayed his presence at the grisly 2018 Parkland, Fla., high school mass shooting into prominence as a gun control activist, then a Harvard degree and finally a nice little niche for himself in the wild, wild world of Washington, DC.
He even briefly served on the Democratic National Committee (warning Dems to quit ragging on young men who just want to “get laid” and “have fun”).
Two years ago, he created the political action committee Leaders We Deserve, vowing it would identify and elect progressive “trailblazers” to “challenge the status quo.” ...
Meanwhile, Leaders We Deserve blew $2.5 million on consultants, $1.1 million on its own digital ads, $965,000 on donor lists and nearly $5,000 on a fitness class subscription.
Nothing says “challenging the status quo” like using donor money for Pilates. ...
I'm sure none of us expected any better of the little spaghetti-armed pansy.
