Is Ben Wikler the Future of the Democratic party? Nominee for President 2028?

[Luckyone]

Jon Steward is one of my favorite broadcaster comedians and I rarely miss one of his shows and in the last show of his 1-day ago, he introduced Ben Wikeler. Ben Wikler is the elected chair of the Democratic party in Wisconsin and in becoming that, he was successful in breaking the overwhelming Republican control of the State (in other words, doing a miracle).

I have put the Jon Stewart video here in which he is interviewing Ben Wikler. Having said that, I know that the Trumpers are "automatically" going to pooh-pooh the video because they believe Jon Stewart is a lefty pawn.

As such, I am also putting an article (which also has a video of Ben Wikler) that was done by FOX, so that you can see that what this man has accomplished, and is looking to accomplish this coming year (become the speaker of the Democrat party), is real and not just a "lefty hoax".

I must be honest, I had never heard of Ben Wickler before today but in listening to him, it did raise my eyebrows a bit. He could easily become the main person for the "new" Democratic party.

Here first is the article (and video) from FOX.

The future of the Democratic Party: Prospective new DNC chair weighs in​

Ben Wikler, chairman of the Wisconsin Democratic Party, joined Scripps News to share his vision for the future of the party after a disappointing election loss.

It's been one month since the U.S. presidential election. And while Republicans and President-elect Donald Trump have been busy setting up a new White House administration, Democrats have spent the past four weeks trying to diagnose why they lost and how to move forward as a party.

One person who thinks he has an answer to that is Ben Wikler, chairman of the Wisconsin Democratic Party. He's now running to become the new chairman of the national Democratic National Comittee because he says it's time to reassess what matters most to voters.

Here now is the Jon Stewart video that does a better job explained the miracle that Wikler has already accomplished and what he wants to do for the future of the Democratic party

To be honest, the Democratic Party - as it sits - has no future.

I actually am not totally against Stewart. I think both him and Maher are more centrist than other democrats.

They seem to call balls and strikes and are not totally one-sided.

They need to give this man an promotion.

So after seeing two articles, you think this guy has a chance--solely based on the fact that he is a democrat. LOL, that's why you elected a known plagiarizer and incompetent liar and allowed the DNC to make your selection for you in 2024. Bring him on. After the fiasco the democrats have been for the last eight years, it will be a long time before you hear much from that party again.

 

[Concerned American]

Wow, an automatic misinformed response without even looking at the information. Great post smoke

Wow, as if you have anything concrete to justify your support for this fly-by-night loser. You're grasping at straws. LOL

...Ben Wikler is the elected chair of the Democratic party in Wisconsin and in becoming that, he was successful in breaking the overwhelming Republican control of the State (in other words, doing a miracle).

A quick fact-check confirmed my suspicion, your facts are more like wishful thinking than any version of reality.

Wisconsin Senate: 33 Seats. 22 Republican, 10 Democrat, 1 vacant
Wisconsin Assembly (House): 99 seats. 64 Republican, 35 Democrat

GOP controlled since 2011. Still GOP controlled, and by a large majority in both houses.

Here first is the article (and video) from FOX.

Didn't watch the video, but read the piece from Fox.

Same old dem talking points- Repubs want to kill Social Security, and give tax cuts to billionaires. Trillions this time!

Dems lost the election because they failed on the "messaging" and will actually will fight for the working class. And dems will "oppose laws aimed at restricting transgender care for minors" because that is actually something the majority of Americans approve of.

Yeah, go ahead and run this guy in 2028, lol.

Dems will never learn.

 

[Concerned American]

Dems will never learn.

After presiding over the worst dumpster fire admin in the history of the country, dems still haven't figured out that they are supposed to support the citizens of the country and promote their collective successes. They still cling to globalist, identity politics and fringe issues no one GAF about, all the while trumpeting a negative, bbbbut, bbbut, bbbut Trump message

I would run as a Democrat when I'm of age and then piss them off and reveal myself as a Republican after January 6.

Actually, the Jon Stewart video is eye-opening. If you do not watch it, you are doing a disservice to the idea that knowledge is the key to everything.

The Democrat nominations since Carter makes no sense.

Because I don't watch a Jon Stewart video?

Seriously, run the guy. What could possibly go wrong?

 

[Concerned American]

Kennedy. Carter is smiling because Biden relieved him of being the worst potus of modern times. I believe Carter was the last reasonably honest democrat to hold that office, but he was just a lousy potus. Biden cannot lay claim to anything resembling honesty.

You just keep digging, LMAO. You get your news from fictional FBI shows and make your decisions on who should run the country on Jon Stewart and you wonder why the democrats are such losers---you can't make this stuff up. SMFH

 

[Luckyone]

Let me reiterate one thing about the OP. If you do not see the entire Jon Stewart/Ben Wikler video, you are doing a disservice to knowledge.

This man is "definitely" different to the "normal" Democrat and what he brings to the table, is truly what this country needs, and I do not say that in thinking of the Democrats but in thinking about what "all Americans" need, including the Republicans.................unless of course, you believe that giving more to the rich than they already have, is good for you.

Just saying. Do yourselves a favor. Stop being biased for one second and spend 19 minutes of your time on what could be a real positive change for you and the nation.

You will never know if you do not watch the video. None of us know what we don't know, do we?

The thing is, it's the identity politics that forces them to the fringe issues. They don't get that. Until they abandon the identity politics, they can only move further and further away from the center.

The negativity has been part of their identity since Reagan. We thought it was bad with Dubya, but Trump took it to a new level entirely.

When Trump is gone, that does not go away. They have to keep doubling down and doubling down, they know no other way.

You first. Jon Stewart is a COMEDIAN, moron.

Ben Wikler is not doubling down on anything. Then again, you can't know that if you do not listen to what he says, can you?

Warning...........the worst surprises in life are the ones you do not see coming.

 

[para bellum]

I pay no attention to the political views of talking heads and comedians, and I don't watch internet videos.

If you think those are valuable sources of information, knock yourself out.
