Isn’t this how change happens?
But voting for who you believe in in the primaries and your preferred party in the general?
in theory, yes.
in practice the DNC will protect corporate donations at all cost.
Hi, I'm a lifelong DNC voter, I think Mamdani is cool and he even got congratulated by Bill Clinton, so I don't think the DNC you're talking about really exist in any sizable number. Also, if we cared about corporate donations we, the DNC, wouldn't have outlawed them for 7 years until the Citizens United SCOTUS decision brought it back.
I think the nail in Cuomo's Coffin was saying him and Trump had a mutual respect, which is not only not true but also pissed off a ton of Democrats.
All the DNC guys released the same agreed on "congratulations" statement because traditionally they're expected to explicitly endorse the winner of the Dem primary for the general election, like Jerry Nadler did, and they're making a point of refusing to do that.
