New Democrat coalition (pro-business centrists), and Problem Solvers cuacus (committee emphasizing bipartisan) darling up and comer Elissa Slotkin will detail the DNC democrats rebuttal to Trumps speech. Its unclear whether she will talk about Democrat’s positions on key issues.

    Slotkin narrowly won her seat in congress by 22,000 votes, of 5 million cast. She was endorsed by Liz Cheney during her campaign, and is ranked as one of the most moderate and centrist Democrats.

    From her wikipedia: “Slotkin condemned Rashida Tlaib for defending the slogan “from the river to the sea”.[68] Slotkin also signed on to a letter criticizing South Africa’s genocide case against Israel, calling it “grossly unfounded.”[69]”

    She’s a younger, female Joe Biden. Looks like Ken Martin’s new DNC is exactly the same as the old DNC.

        What is there to learn? Their donors play both sides so they always come out on top.

      It was absolute misery when she won her primary. She outperformed Kamala, but it feels like thats more down to her not being as closely tied to Biden and the genocide, even though her views seem more extreme. Not happy to have her representing me

    Good! As a Lifelong Republican Voter the ONLY thing stopping me from voting Democrat is the fact that Republicans Exist! So it’s a GOOD thing Democrats are TRYING to court ME instead of their Voters!
