Democrats work to become irrelevant

If things weren't bad enough for Democrats, their current crop of potential Democratic National Committee chairmen should be enough to push them over the edge into complete irrelevance in America.

From Grabien News:

Candidates aspiring to take over as chairman of the Democratic National Committee met Monday night to discuss what went wrong in 2016 and how to get the party back on track.

Early into the event the candidates gravitated toward a particular scapegoat for the party’s poor showing in November: Political consultancies owned by white people.

Why didn't I think of that? But let's hear the further explanation:

“We have to stop, particularly with the consultants,” said the chairman of the South Carolina Democratic Party, Jaime Harrison. “You cannot come to the DNC and get a contract and the only minority face you have is the person answering the phone.”

Minority consultants “need to get the same resources that the white consultants have gotten,” said a Fox News analyst and candidate for the chairmanship, Jehmu Greene. "The DNC did a piss poor, pathetic job" attracting minorities, she said.

Clearly, all the white consultants telling Hillary Clinton to ignore the middle class whites gave her bad advice. Black consultants are much more likely to have picked up on that flaw.

But those aren't the only two candidates:

Democrats must provide “training” that focuses in part on teaching Americans “how to be sensitive and how to shut their mouths if they are white,” urged the executive director of Idaho’s Democratic Party, Sally Boynton Brown, who is white. 

Darn those uppity white folks!

But it gets better...

The event’s moderator, MSNBC’s Joy Ann Reid, asked the candidates how the party should handle the Black Lives Now movement.

The candidates uniformly emphasized that the party must embrace the activists unreservedly.

“It makes me sad that we’re even having that conversation and that tells me that white leaders in our party have failed,” Brown said. “I’m a white woman, I don’t get it. … My job is to listen and be a voice and shut other white people down when they want to interrupt.”

“This is life and death” she emphasized. “I am a human being trying to do good work and I can’t do it without y’all. So please, please, please, get ahold of me. Sally at we-the-dnc.org. I need schooling so I can go school the other white people.” 

Read that again, except replace the word "white" with "black." Then it sounds like something from an Uncle Tom a century ago.

Let me be the first to "school" you, Sally: Shut up! You are right about one thing: You don't get it.

And the stupidity kept rolling...

Raymond Buckley, the chairman for the New Hampshire Democratic Party, told a story about how, in the midst of “grieving” on Election Day, he received a call from his black niece, who feared for her life after Trump’s victory.

“It’s not just certain parts of the country,” he said. “That fear is all across the country. It’s even in rural new Hampshire. So when people say black lives matter, you are damn right they matter.” 

There are no gangs of angry white people roaming the countryside looking for blacks to kill, but Buckley appears to be living in a different country from the rest of us. Who knew New Hampshire was so rough?

This whole event just gets the bear:

On the bright side:

Asked whether they would agree to work with President Trump, the candidates agreed they would never do so, which drew some applause from the otherwise quiet crowd at George Washington University. 

So next time Democrats complain about how Republicans obstructed Obama, you can reply, "Pot, meet kettle."
