I don't how even DNC ghouls don't realize she's a charisma void. She always looks uncomfortable on camera, laughs at weird times, everything she says comes off super scripted (probably because it was scripted by a commit of DNC ghouls).

You think the DNC could find a normie neoliberal who at least had some personality, I mean fuck you guys managed to find Obama, there has to be another Obama out there.

At this point the only way to understand how the DNC weirdos work is to imagine that the Habsburg family had maintained power while enthusiastically inbreeding over the last 300 years and continue to stridently believe that they are attractive and likable.

They know they just don't care. Their goal isn't to win elections.

i dont think all of them know. i think a lot of them are anticommunists so hard that they're structurally incapable of seeing what's happening. like, i dont think most of them are cackling behind closed doors, saying "haha, now is the time of fascism, unleash the beast, make the working class pay! class solidarity above even the needs of the empire!"

they're still effective at countering any actual leftward shift, so they're still a capable organization. but i think the rank and file really dont see that they look like they're trying to lose elections. the behavior is just built into the party.

They don't want another Obama, he made a slight lip service to doing good things instead of bad things, which is too extreme for the DNC.
