We made fun of the Republicans for voting however many times in order to elect McCarthy their House leader, but it's as worrisome to me that the Democrats hardly had an election at all. It was just, "Nancy says it's Hakeem, so...." See a pattern here?

Yes very bad what the Republicans did was democracy in action it should've been respected and sadly was not. Good point.

That's because it's done behind closed doors until a member has the votes needed. If you don't know how basic politics work why do you insist on running?

Given her success rate fighting serious fascism, I’d follow her lead too. Seems we’ve got pretty intelligent Democrats in the House right now.

What funnier they claim they voted Pelosi not to end up with Jeffries or McCarthy and 2 years later….. and that’s why I never vote blue no matter who. They just as pathetic as the red corporation.

I never heard a "Nancy says it's.." anything. Hakeem has proven himself capable. He's clear, he's concise, and Dems were unanimous in standing behind him.

This is a troubling post given the circumstances we face at this point in time. You're giving me Naomue Wolf vibes.

And the Squad not only fell in line but acted like giddy cheerleaders about it. 🙄 Please bring us back, Ms. Williamson!

Rank-and-file Democrats seem to have little personal agency in politics. They only want to know the prevailing opinion and then snap to it like a magnet.

Democratic voters are going to have a say in the 2024 primary and they will let you know exactly what they think of you. You won’t get above 2% in any state
