Ro, the Irony! Some Words for Rep. Ro Khanna to Chew On.

Fearful of former president Trump, who is performing better than President Biden in some of the polls, California Representative Ro Khanna has called for Nicole Shanahan to abandon her decision to support Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Has any Democrat yet considered asking Biden to abandon his decision to seek reelection? Kennedy has a better chance of defeating Trump than does a guy of advanced age who’s been in office for decades (since before I was born) and is clearly suffering from extended periods of cognitive impairment. You have to wonder why the DNC couldn’t just offer America a viable candidate. They believe in democracy, don’t they? What part of “choice” do they not understand?
If Shanahan stepped aside, we would be denied the chance to see her debate with Kamala Harris.
I get that, to the DNC leadership, staying in control is more important than having the rest of us be able to vote for the ticket we actually want.
Perhaps Khanna’s own op-ed explains why he wants Shanahan to back out of the race: “the system supports the status quo and resists real change.”
Shanahan’s response to him shows us the transparent and direct type of leadership we’ll have, once the Kennedy/Shanahan team rolls into Washington next January, calling all swamp-critters out as they try to slither back underneath the surface.
