Sen Sheldon Whitehouse calls for DNC 'war machine' to take on Trump, GOP
2025-01-02
[THEPOSTMILLENNIAL] Delegates with the Democratic National Committee must create a "war machine" against President Donald Trump
...Oh, noze! Not him!...
and his Republican Party, said Rhode Island Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) in a letter to state party chairs. The DNC (If you're white you ain't right!)
...Democrat National Committee, where all those off-the-wall talking points originate...
is coming up on an election to choose their next chair after the previous one resigned following Kamala Harris
launched her campaign on the “RuPaul’s Drag Race”
' presidential election loss.

"We in Congress customarily say we're 'fighting' for things when we really mean working or toiling," said Whitehouse, in the letter obtained by Politico. "A fight means a defined adversary, a battle strategy, and actual punches thrown. Done well, it involves exposing and degrading your adversary's machinery of warfare."

The letter argues that Democrats
...every time you hear the phrase white people, white supremacy, white anything but paint, you're listening to a Democrat. Ask him/her/it to reimagine something for you; they do that a lot, though not well. They can hear a dog whistle a mile or two away. They invented the spoils system and Tammany Hall, and inspired the addition of the word (Thomas) Nasty to the English language. They want to stop continental drift and repeal the law of unintended side effects...
do not have an organized, institutional basis from which to attack Trump and the GOP. Whitehouse states that under Trump, the Republican Party can "rapidly and effectively deploy false narratives" while Democrats "struggle to bring true ones to bear."

Whitehouse blames the Biden White House, Politico reports. The Biden White House was not a stronghold of offensive strategy planning, Whitehouse intoned per Politico. He suggested that Democrats should expose corruption on the right, accusations of influence peddling.

DNC Chair candidates include Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Chair Ken Martin, Wisconsin Democratic Party Chair Ben Wikler, and former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley
...former Democratic governor of Maryland and aspiring presidential candidate, known locally as The One-Man Economic Wrecking Crew. O'Malley was elected to his second term driven by union support and near-Stalinesque vote margins in Baltimore city (82%) and Prince George's County (88%). He presided over more than 40 tax or fee increases, including a rain tax and a flush tax...
, Politico notes. Some have expressed concerns that the DNC chair race is comprised of mostly white men.

#7  Sheldon is calling for the DNC to do more than just jail and assassinate Trump. He calls for them to get serious.

#6  I can't tell from his statement whether he wants working and toiling or if he wants actual punches, i.e. violence. Maybe he wants a real shooting war. But I'm pretty sure we won't find him on the street throwing punches himself with the possibility that he might get his own clock cleaned. He sounds like an idiot.
