David Hogg learned the hard way that even Democrats have limits. The former Parkland activist and DNC vice chair got the boot after his disastrous appearance on Bill Maher’s show went viral for all the wrong reasons.
During the May interview, Hogg tried to sound reasonable by criticizing his own party. He complained that Democrats created a culture where saying the wrong thing gets you kicked out. The irony is almost too perfect to believe.
But then Hogg really stepped in it when he started talking about young men. He rambled about how young people should focus on getting laid instead of worrying about rent money. Even liberal Bill Maher seemed shocked by the crude comments from someone supposedly representing the party.
The Democrat establishment finally had enough of their woke poster boy. Party insiders were reportedly furious that Hogg made them look like a bunch of immature college kids. His comments about excommunication and young men dating came across as tone deaf and embarrassing.
This is what happens when you put radical activists in charge of serious politics. Hogg rode his fifteen minutes of fame from a national tragedy straight into a leadership position he was never qualified for. The Democrats created this monster and now they are dealing with the consequences.
The party that claims to care about working families just watched their vice chair dismiss real economic struggles. Instead of addressing inflation and job concerns, Hogg wanted to talk about hookup culture. American families struggling to pay bills deserved better than this juvenile nonsense.
Hogg’s ouster shows the Democrat party is eating itself alive from the inside. When even your own people think you have gone too far left, maybe it is time to look in the mirror. The radical wing that took over the party is finally facing some pushback from adults in the room.
This whole mess proves that woke politics eventually collapse under their own weight. Hogg thought he could ride the liberal wave forever, but reality finally caught up with him. Maybe next time the Democrats will think twice before handing power to unserious people with no real experience.
