DISCLAIMER: I’M NOT FROM USA.
From the outside looking in, it seems like at least half of the inaction of the “left” is because ol’ Chucky just hinders everything.
“We wrote a strong letter” was probably the first time I actually, genuinely didn’t understand how he’s still the leader of the party.
Since then I’ve done some digging, and it seems like the guy is actually quite delusional. Not even his imaginary friends vote for him, which is kinda sad. Understandable though.
Now he’s talking about voting on whether they should block the military action in Venezuela. The ongoing one. The one that’s been planned publicly for months.
So, how does he still have his job?
His leadership position was voted on before the DNC chair.
So his threats to cut off funding to the state of any Dems that wouldn’t back him still had some teeth.
It doesn’t now, mainly because the DNC immediately jumped into the largest twin esture into state parties, ever.
He’s been a lame duck all but maybe a month of this senate leadership term, and will almost certainly lose it next year.
If he doesn’t, it’s a bad sign.
