That isn’t what actually happened. You have been lied to.

And Haim Saban should leave the party. He’s a bigot and an awful human being. If you think they solely ran Perez to save Saban, well....that’s your theory along with Glenn, TYT, and some others. But you also refused to answer my questions as you said there was no merit to my second and third paragraphs (where I…

I suppose that we ought to ignore the fact that Perez and Ellison themselves have tweeted that they are friends? Ignore the fact that they have been photographed out having dinner (which TYT tried to turn into some scandal)? Ignore that their records are fairly similar and that Perez also had some hefty union support…

Doesn’t the fact that Perez won by a substantial margin literally mean that more people in the party supported him? Do you... not know what voting is?

I suspect you’d find a weirdly high percentage of Bernie-or-busters previously backed Ron Paul 100%. They don’t know how politics works, but they’re goddamn furious about it and want everything to change somehow.

White-ethno fascism is taking over America.

But sure, let’s throw a hissy-fit about who gets to be a party figurehead.

You know how it works - corporations all get into a big dark room (which corporations? all of the, Katie!) and put huge pile of money on the floor. The candidate who manages to scrape up the most cash while simultaneously tongue-bathing the most CEOs gets to be chair of the DNC. Only ONE man was strong enough to…

The people you elect to Congress and the Presidency also don’t have stated policies about every decision that might come up during their tenure. Like all forms of representative democracy, you vote for the people you think will best represent your interests.

435 “party hacks”? You mean the members of Democratic State Committees that were elected to represent the Democratic Party on a national scale? And who got to be on the Democratic State Committee because they were elected from their local Democratic councils? The DNC is made up of members elected from all the way down…

Apparently Ellison didn’t have more support from people in the party. Because they voted, and Perez won.

Glad to hear it. Do better by her.

Oh, go poke pins in your Hillary doll.

Also, “seriously considering leaving the party” over essentially the support staff, and not because, you know... Your local representative or senate candidates, gubernatorial candidates, or presidential candidates.

I’m still amazed at the number of people who are more upset at Keith losing the race than Keith himself is......

In all seriousness I genuinely don’t think there was a huge groundswell of young women and POC begging for EITHER candidate. The head of the DNC is really not usually considered to be this huge a deal or particularly contentious. The candidate that you liked is now deputy head of the DNC. They’re getting along and…

I want to star this a million times. Perez will do the day to day organizing while Ellison as “ceremonial” deputy chief will be the firebrand and still keep his seat which is important right now. Revolution goes back to where it started but a sustained social movement will get us progress.

THANK you. Jesus Christ there are some dramatic people up in here. Everything I’ve read indicates they are extremely similar. Just because Bernie endorsed Ellison doesn’t make Perez Satan incarnate. I quite like Sanders, but he does inspire some rabid followers...

Are you this stupid and selfish naturally?

Nina Turner, a Sanders surrogate, told the Post’s Dave Weigel that “the future of the Democratic Party will walk away” if Ellison loses.

I literally had to read your comment several times to try to figure out that you WEREN’T just saying “god forbid we respect the DNC chair.” Because I mean...if you’ll literally leave the party because the guy you liked (which, let’s be honest, a lot of people were fired up about Bc a dude who doesn’t even call himself…
