Interesting! I have literally never once seen Schumer defended by anyone on Lemmy, but my eyes aren't yours, and that is fishy asf with new accounts.
100% agree the DNC is an umbrella that we need to fill with good candidates that aren't bought out and beholden ti special interests.
They're not openly saying Schumer is the GOAT or anything, astroturfers and bots know better than to mask-off immediately, but there's a LOT of pushback happening right now when people complain about Democrats broadly, and will work HARD to support voting dems and whinge and cry against criticism of establishment dems, but will avoid or pivot talking about criticisms of the old-guard establishment. It's obvious for anyone over the age of like, 11.
They get really mad when you suggest they're collaborating with the GOP.
But if you check account history most of them are less than a month old. I've seen this every election year, they really are working together.
(For the record, I support voting dems, but all NEW dems, flush the incumbent toilet on the DNC's contents and lets refill it with fresh water.)
