Love the propaganda. One corporate media news article says, Tom Peres is 'raking in grass roots cash' at $200.00 a pop.
Grass roots? Give me a break.
He's being funneled a massive cash inflow, guaranteeing that the DNC will be able to maintain the same doddering billionaire surrogates that allowed for such a humiliating defeat at the hands of Trump and the Republicans.
As I recall, we were seeing an average of $23 for the Sanders Campaign; real, actual grass roots support, you know, the kind of financial out-lay that hard-pressed citizens can actually afford.
If the Democratic National Committee chairmanship goes to Tom Perez, This is what the basic thrust of the DNC campaign will be in the next Presidential election:
They'll figure that after four years of Trump, the citizenry will vote for just about anybody the DNC will groom. They'll pick a nice pliant candidate, sympathetic to the plight of bankers and billionaires. They’ll depend on lots and lots and lots of money pouring into their coffers for a hyped-up campaign.
Which they will lose.
Just like they did this one.
In the end, winning the presidency would be a nice bonus for the Democratic Party, but the real bread and butter of their existence is: Money.
...And just in case you think I’m full of it, take a look at the article I wrote in February of 2016 and let me know; did I hit the mark, or not?
