      You don't have to share AOC's politics at all to see the key point here is right: that the geriatric Dem leadership has made no effort to groom successors & this is a problem. Centrists should be as concerned about this as progressives.https://twitter.com/ryangrim/status/1339228288791814146 …

      It's a pretty basic rule in large organizations that you have to think about succession and recruit replacement leaders. Is the Democratic party a multi-generational political organization or a job program for the superannuated?

          When an organization is not concerned on how to preserve & increase knowledge and expertise... You should be very worried about its survival.

          They had Crowley lol Now they have Hakeem Jeffries, Cheri Bustos, Sean Patrick Maloney, Ted Lieu, etc but these people (while relatively younger) aren’t any better than Pelosi, Hoyer, and Clyburn (Bustos, for one, is actually much worse!)

          The thing about successors is they don’t wait around forever.
