Hope this latest means that we essentially have two heads of the DNC.

(26,644 posts)supporting Dems in races all over the country.. We need an all out push against voter suppression if we have any hope at all for a progressive and inclusive America.
I like these two.

(21,806 posts)Appearing on Hardball with Chris Matthews, the two men were asked about Trumps tweet calling the DNC election rigged, with Ellison rolling his eyes and Perez laughing.
First of all, a little levity here, Matthews began. Congressman Ellison, was this election rigged? Donald Trump said it was rigged. Your thoughts.
You know, with a guy getting help from the Russians, well for for him to call anything rigged is ridiculous, Ellison replied as Perez laughed.

(53,056 posts)Thanks got posting. Perez is right about Ellison and voter turnout. CD-5 went from the lowest turnout in the state to the highest under him.
These two united sends a great message!

(3,077 posts)I am sick and tired of the divide in the party. We have to work through it and prevent fascism.

(53,056 posts)That it is defeat that reveals one's character. We are seeing Ellison rise to the ocassion and show himself to be focused on what really counts. I predict his popularity and standing in the party will continue to grow.
