BUT FOR HOW MUCH LONGER? David Hogg is the Grift that Keeps on Grifting.
All this has led to at least one “high-ranking Democrat outside of the DNC” alleging that Hogg’s political activism may be little more than a grift. Hence the title of this latest missive on David.
Hogg and his PAC have been criticized on a number of fronts. When he ascended to his position with the DNC, one of his first acts was to use that organization’s resources to raise money for his PAC (a PAC from which he draws his salary).
This was likely one of the reasons he is no longer with the DNC.
Then he boldly proclaimed his PAC would raise $20 million to promote candidates he supports in primaries, even if that meant going against Democrats that are currently in office. While DNC officials had reportedly signed a “neutrality policy” earlier this year that seemed designed to protect Democrat incumbents, Hogg was apparently the only one to not sign.
Another probable reason he is no longer with the DNC.
While Hogg’s actions that seemed in conflict with the DNC are a bit of a black eye, the effectiveness of his PAC has also come into question. It has lost a couple races—and by wide margins—in which it weighed in this year, and it can be argued the one primary “success” — radical anti-gun socialist (communist?) Zohran Mamdani — was going to happen with or without his PAC.
Could Hogg’s grift be coming to a deservedly ignominious end?
