I previously predicted that David Hogg's days as DNC Vice Chair were 
numbered. And it looks like I’ve already been proven right. According to a 
new report, the Democratic establishment is scrambling to contain this 
loose-cannon, know-it-all kid who wants to spend $20 million on an 
intraparty civil war.


“A week after Democratic National Committee vice chair David Hogg unveiled 
a controversial plan to back primary challenges to longtime party 
incumbents, anger at the activist-turned-Democratic leader is only 
intensifying among party officials,” reports NOTUS. “These Democratic 
critics say their fury at Hogg has grown amid what they see as his ill-
conceived and insufficient efforts to make amends for his planned primary 
campaign — a campaign that, they say, threatens the DNC’s neutrality and 
its capacity to fight back against President Donald Trump.”

At a DNC retreat last month, officers — including Hogg — finalized updates 
to the party’s neutrality pledge and other reforms. While Hogg actively 
participated in the discussions, a senior DNC official noted he stayed 
silent when the neutrality agreement came up. Just three weeks later, Hogg 
announced plans to challenge primary candidates, fueling internal 
backlash. Although party leaders say the neutrality changes were in motion 
before Hogg’s announcement, they could help address growing frustration 
with him. 

According to the article, some Democrats are reportedly floating the idea 
of forcing Hogg to choose between continuing his campaign or stepping down 
as DNC vice chair, with suggestions that the party may even consider 
changing its rules to make that happen.

The tension is expected to spill over during a regularly scheduled 
Thursday call for DNC members — a meeting that, some Democratic officials 
suggest, might turn into a forum for airing grievances about Hogg’s anti-
incumbent pledge.

During that call, the DNC’s chair, Ken Martin, is also expected to unveil 
a multipoint agenda that would include a proposal mandating all DNC 
officers stay neutral in all primaries, according to a senior DNC 
official. The proposal would expand on the current neutrality pledge, 
which now only includes the presidential race.

If adopted, the proposal would effectively force Hogg to choose between 
staying in his role at the DNC and backing primary challenges against 
incumbent Democratic lawmakers.

The real question isn't whether Hogg will survive this political 
firestorm; I don’t think he will. He’ll likely leave under the pretense 
that he can be more effective from the outside. The question is how much 
damage he'll do to the Democratic Party before he's shown the door. But 
then again, maybe that's exactly what the Democrats deserve for voting for 
an inexperienced activist for a position of leadership.

Some Democrats clearly want David Hogg out. “You’ve got to ask yourself, 
‘Can we trust him?’” Clay Middleton, a DNC committee member, told NOTUS. 
Middleton, questioning Hogg’s silence on the neutrality pledge, wondered, 
“Are they sharing that information with people to go against an incumbent 
Democrat?”

Jay Jacobs, chair of New York’s Democratic Party, called Hogg’s actions “a 
conflict of interest,” saying, “You cannot at the same time be a vice 
chair… and be part of an effort to unseat those very same Democratic 
elected officials.”

Privately, the frustration is boiling over. “We’ve got a lot of f—ing 
problems right now,” said one senior Democrat, calling Hogg’s move a 
“middle finger” to those who rebuilt trust after 2016. “I don’t think he’s 
yet realized how few supporters he has and how painful it’s going to be 
for him.”

Mark my words: David Hogg’s days at the DNC are numbered. The only real 
question is whether he walks out on his own or gets shoved out the door. 
Either way, this trainwreck was inevitable. Conservatives warned from the 
start that elevating Hogg to party leadership was a mistake, and now the 
Democrats are reaping what they sowed. Whether he’s forced out or leaves 
on his own terms, he’ll be emboldened to go after any incumbent he deems 
unworthy, plunging the party into a messy, costly civil war it can’t 
afford.
