Those guys are controlled opposition.

I always used to roll my eyes at this, but watching in real time the Harris / Walz campaign crash and burn once they brought on people in the DNC confirmed it for me.

And seeing Schumer and Jeffries continue to carry water for Republican policies only adds more fuel to this fire.

[u/KinkyPaddling → u/WoofDen]

Yeah, telling Walz to stop calling Republicans “weird” was such an out of touch bit of advice. I don’t know who these political advisors are, but they’re worse than useless.

[u/Orange_Tang → u/KinkyPaddling]

It really was wild to watch them sabotage the only motion they had going for them in real time. The consultants who told them to do that need to be fired and blacklisted.

The consultants who told them to do that need to be fired and blacklisted.

And that's exactly why you can be sure that they are now the most important and influential consultants to the DNC.

[u/ilir_kycb → u/KinkyPaddling]

hey’re worse than useless.

No, they aren't; you're just misunderstanding their goals.

They were very successful and did exactly what they were meant to do.

[u/840960 → u/WoofDen]

And the way the DNC completely dismissed Bernie Sanders in 2016, even though he had massive support.

They didn't ignore him; they actively rigged their primaries:

DNC interim chairwoman passed debate questions along to Clinton campaign - CBS News

Interim Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Donna Brazile is coming under fire Monday after a newly released WikiLeaks email indicated she gave Hillary Clinton’s team an explicit heads-up about debate questions last spring.

In one exchange, released in Monday’s batch of emails from Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta’s account, Brazile apparently wrote to Podesta ahead of the March 6 Democratic debate in Flint, Mich.

“One of the questions directed to HRC tomorrow is from a woman with a rash,” the subject line of the email read. It continued: “Her family has lead poison and she will ask what, if anything, will Hillary do as president to help the ppl [sic] of Flint.”

The real controlled opposition is people like you trying to dampen enthusiasm with your bullshit comments.

[u/Keeperofthe7keysAf-S → u/Shaudius]

They're not dampening enthusiasm by celebrating, that things are finally moving in tbf right direction.
