A Chair-Raising Experience: All the Minority Candidates the DNC Pushed Aside to Elect Two White Guys

The Democrat National Committee selected its party leadership on Saturday. Ken Martin was elected Party Chair and anti-gun activist, David Hogg, was elected Vice Chair. Yes, two white men. Their selection raised a lot of eyebrows since the Democrat Party is synonymous with DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion). Martin and Hogg’s competition for the number one and number two spots were all minorities, the vast majority of them women.
Here’s a video of all of them. (WATCH)

Jan Brauner (@JaniceBrauner) ~ Aside from the disturbing obesity, predictability of the candidates’ races & uni-message ... one cannot help but notice a dearth of creative or substantive policy positions & the queasy presence of excessive self-love (look at us ... look at MEEEE ... aren’t we all noble and fabulous)!
George (@BehizyTweets) ~ They're so narcissistic.
As you see, posters noted the negatives these candidates brought to the contest.
Any of you GRITZ lovers care to throw your two-cents-worth of commentary into the hat? Don't worry ... we'll wait.

Okay ... now back to our program.
Even singing could not win over voters. (WATCH)

One of our intrepid posters noticed something profound about this warbling DNC diva ...
TrueWest (@Trestresjolie) ~ Those lashes. All I can see is those lashes.
Friendly Savage (@LecheExpress) ~
She must be a big fan of Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX).
That’s too funny!
You can see why none of these other candidates made the cut. These next two posters make great points.
Angry Unicorn 🦄 ( @AngryUnicorn88 ) ~ As a woman and a natural leader, I can tell you that anytime someone has to announce what they are, and one is race and the other is subjective (strong), they have nothing. Also, if you ever have to say, "I am in charge here" ... you aren't in charge or you're just not a good leader.
Michael Dahle (@MichaelDah96086) ~ They really don’t have a deep bench. I didn’t see any of them that could command an audience. When you have to beg for attention you’ve already lost.
It’s pretty obvious why they went with Martin and Hogg. They had no choice.
Deplorable Rochelle (@SecretAZ12) ~ Hysterically laughing ...
TaraBull ( @TaraBull808 ) ~ BREAKING: Gun control activist David Hogg named vice chair of the DNC
The Polished Turd (@thePTurd) ~ White straight male as chair and white straight (maybe?) male as vice chair.
Ram (@Dmau12Ram) ~ A Beta male that they can push around. That was the plan.
Martin and Hogg are horrible choices. But, they are the best of several even worse choices. Don’t be surprised if Democrat minority leaders start raising a big stink over this. The Democrat Party talks a big diversity game but when faced with choosing DEI, they instead cast it aside and went with merit. Someone tell President Trump!
