David Hogg, a top Democratic party official, isn’t backing off his controversial plan to fund primary challenges against Democratic members of Congress he deems “ineffective” in reaching disaffected voters, particularly young ones.

“The fact of the matter is if you were doing your job and you’re being effective, this should not concern you,” Hogg said in an interview with the Washington Post’s Post Reports podcast. “But if you are anxious from listening to this or hearing about this idea, you should ask yourself, if you’re a member of Congress, why and how you can change.”

Why?
When Dems were in power, I always hoped the GOP could go more back to the center. America is better w/ 2 strong parties.
Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom to change. Hogg will take the DNC to rock bottom.

That's fair. I think they already hit that, though.
They really lost their way w/ what "woke" became (I think it started out fine). They tried to rush things that Americans just weren't ready for, and it became very uncompromising. Terrible political instincts.
Though, I also think this is a low point for the GOP. My hope is that both parties find their way back to the center. Gerrymandering absolutely sucks.
If Hogg primaries them they have not.
We think women can have penises The public We don't
We think men belong in women's spaces The public We don't
We think men should be able to play women sports. The public We Don't
We think we should let illegals across the border The public We don't
We think illegals gang members need to stay The public We don't.
The Democrat party still thinks they lost because of racism and misogyny. I don't think they have hit rock bottom yet.

The center is the traditional GOP. No one wants that.
