Watch Crowd Boo New DNC Chair Tom Perez at DNC 'Unity Tour
Townhall.com ^ | April 18, 2017 | Cortney O'Brien

New Democratic National Committee Chair Tom Perez picked up where his profanity-laced tirade left off last month at the DNC’s “Come Together Fight Back” tour in Portland, Maine Monday. Perez again went on a rant against Republicans, slamming their new “sh**ty” budget" and dismissing their health care plan, insisting the GOP "does not give a sh*t about the people they are trying to hurt."

His appearance was doomed from the start, judging by the reaction he got during the introductions.

The leader of the Maine Young Democrats opened the rally by asking the audience who or what brought them out. When she mentioned Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, the crowd applauded and cheered his name. When she mentioned Perez, the room changed.

Clearly, he's not impressing progressives. 

They may have appeared on the same stage, but Perez and Sanders appear to be at odds over the future of the Democratic party. Sanders, for instance, said the DNC should have put more resources into the Kansas special election last week, where Republican Ron Estes defeated his Democratic opponent James Thompson by 6 points. 

The Democrats' apathy in that race proves the Democratic party is “giving up,” Sanders argued. Perez pushed back the following day, insisting they sent plenty of volunteers to Kansas and their ability to come within single digits of the Republican candidate in a beet red district was a “success.”

Despite the underlying factions, the Democratic unity tour is expected to stop in all 50 states.

I'll leave you with this.

Too bad the dummies didn’t go with the Muslim guy who could have done even more damage to the DNC.

That said, I support Perez as the DNC chair. I’d also support Sarah Palin for the job, too.

And for the same reasons. (-:

I always thought this kind of crap only happened in communist, Marxists and third world counties. I never dreamed it would happen in America. ***holes claiming to be Americans “fighting back” against Americans. **** them!

“Maybe you came because you’re curious about the new DNC chairman or...maybe you’re habitually unemployed and have nothing else to do or your mom is cleaning the basement and you’re too damn lazy to help her or you were scared and thought this was a safe space.”

This clown is to go to all 57 states? I can’t wait for him to come to ND, where the rat party is hanging on by threads, causing Heitkamp to act like a Republican in hopes she can keep her Senate seat.

Who knows, I might even go to his rally for the entertainment value. I bet Heitkamp dodges the event.

Perez as DNC chair is a gift to conservatives. He is an establishment insider globalist type in the mold of Hillary. The base hates him. He will keep the Democrats divided and demoralized.
