Episode 7: David Hogg, NYC Mayoral Primary, and Bernie Sanders

This week on Not Suitable for Democracy, we’re diving through the Democratic Party drama. From DNC shenanigans to Biden's performance decline, the poor optics are glaring for a party that boasts about unity and strength.Host Nick dives into David Hogg’s challenge to the "asleep at the wheel incumbents" and the "telenovela" that's transpired since. Will he lose his seat as DNC Vice Chair?Then jump to another Democratic leader under fire: Cory Booker. From filibustering for over 25 hours protesting Trump to voting for Trump's son-in-law's father? Yup. That actually happened.President Biden is making headlines but not the ones he wants. Jake Tapper's new book revealed that Biden's team was ready to put him in a wheelchair if he won the 2024 election. This has prompted questions about his mental and physical abilities during his time in the White House. From drama to enthusiasm, we examine the NYC Mayoral Primary. Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani surprised many by fundraising for Council Speaker Adrienne Adams—a move that sparked debate among progressives. Does this help Zohran's campaign? Will Zohran's support for Adrienne Adams hurt Cuomo?And finally, a check-in on America. Bernie Sanders appeared on Andrew Schultz's Flagrant podcast to share that 60% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. Bernie's appearance sparked some criticism against his remarks about identity politics. At the end of the day, we can only ask the right questions that push our country in a better direction.New episodes drop every Tuesday!
