The Democratic National Committee is in the midst of some troubling times which came to a head on Sunday.
That is when top officials within the party accused one of their own of leaking what was said in a private meeting, per The Washington Post.
The Zoom meeting, which occurred on May 15, was when DNC Chair Ken Martin expressed doubts on whether he wanted to stay chairman. He took aim at Vice Chair David Hogg, who he alleged is undermining his leadership.
“I’ll be very honest with you, for the first time in my 100 days on this job … the other night I said to myself for the first time, I don’t know if I wanna do this anymore,” per a recording of the meeting obtained by Politico.
Hogg committed to spending $20 million to remove Democrats he deemed ineffective. Martin said this has made his job tougher than it already was.
“No one knows who the hell I am, right? I’m trying to get my sea legs underneath of me and actually develop any amount of credibility so I can go out there and raise the money and do the job I need to to put ourselves in a position to win,” Martin said to Hogg. “And again, I don’t think you intended this, but you essentially destroyed any chance I have to show the leadership that I need to. So it’s really frustrating.”
