David Hogg Takes Multiple Swipes at Democrats: ‘Asleep at the Wheel’

David Hogg took multiple swipes at Democrats as he announced that he will not fight to hold onto his leadership role in the Democratic National Committee.

Hogg decried “a serious lack of vision from Democratic leaders, too many of them asleep at the wheel” in a lengthy thread on X on Wednesday night, adding that three Democratic House members have died this year after being reelected in November, giving Republicans an expanded majority.

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) had voted to nullify the February 2025 elections that appointed Hogg as vice chair, citing procedural violations.

In his Wednesday posts he also criticized the “crisis of competence and culture” that protects complacency and rewards seniority.

It “has already cost us an election and millions of Americans their rights. Let’s not let it cost us the country,” he said. “We must change the culture of our party that has brought us here and if there is anything activism or history teaches us it’s that comfortable people, especially comfortable people with power, do not change. In this moment of crisis, comfort is not an option.”
