The Chairman of the Democratic Party Ken Martin said on Sunday that he did not fall from work after that Politico The resulting sound of the meeting on which Martin expressed doubt in his ability and willingness to unite the party.
In audio recording, Martin Guilt on a continuous white party on the legs of one of his youngest colleagues, March for our Life Participation David HoggAnd he claimed that Hogg “destroyed” his ability to lead the party from the election abyss of elections that found himself after 2024. years.
“I don’t think you intended, but you were essentially destroying any chance to show the leadership I needed. So, it’s really frustrating,” Martin told Hogg Zoom Call, therefore to Politico, Once he says, “No one knows who I am, isn’t it?”
“I try to pull out my sea legs and actually develop any credibility to get out there and raise money and do the work I have to put in a victory position,” the chair claims.
On the same ZoomMartin would find himself to make Frank reception: that he faced his first doubts in his desire to keep his job.
“I’ll be very honest with you, for the first time in my 100 days on this job … I won’t tell myself for the first time, I don’t know if I want it anymore,” Martin told the call.
The funeral spokesman published a statement by Martin in which the newly elected chair said that “does not go anywhere.”
“I took this job to fight Republicans, no Democrats“Said the chair, according to a statement divided by Independent. “Like I said when I was elected our struggle is not in a democratic party, our struggle and must be exclusively focused on Donald Trump and a catastrophic republican plan. It’s a job I’ll still do every day. ”
Martin’s bushes are at least a little-based in reality. The relatively unknown Minnesota Democratic-Agricultural Chairman for the Party was chosen to run a party after more than several other candidates, including the probably better recognition of the name: Ben Wikler adjacent Wisconsin Democratic Parties. From his choices, Martin was not playing from the news, but he still fought from the shadow of the HOGG, whose activism in the Sucue of Shooting at Parkland School is propelled on the national attorney before Martin.
HOGG, as well as the continuation generates the titles – further complicates Martin’s position. Brash, Young DNC The vice presidency was knocked earlier this year to support primary challenges against the Gray Party in Congress, drawing immediate and visceral anger from the attic party, but still strong establishment.
Hogg and Martin personally clashed because of this problem and obviously did not achieve a friendly compromise.
There is also a question of the overall brand of the party, which is in tattles after elections 2024. Season campaigns regarding the former president Joe BidenRated by physical and mental fall, running by re-election to the summer, well passed any sustainable point for his party to hold the primary replacement. He then was incredibly worried from a democratic map in favor of his ex partir, Kamala HarrisAfter appearing lost and confused on land during the discussion with Donald Trump – Who would continue to win general elections.
Martin and others are faced with the questions why the earliest bisen, including Martin’s predecessor, insisted for months (years, that Bisen’s decline was the right-wing conspiracy and the result of journalists who made a fake story. Harris’ defeat in 2024. The year has also seen the party fails to get in the house, and loses more places in the Senate, which ends with the democratic majority of the Senate.
