David Hogg is a 25-year-old political activist and, for now, vice chair of the Democratic National Committee. A survivor of the 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, Hogg first drew national attention for speaking out vigorously in favor of gun control. He has since become an all-purpose progressive campaigner.
He is controversial, even among Democratic circles, because he has clashed with the party's establishment. He previously pledged to spend $20 million to primary members of his own party, though he insisted that he would only target Democrats who reside in safe districts. His thinking is that elected Democrats are too old and that the current iteration of the party fails to appeal to younger voters, particularly young males. Hogg is definitely onto something there: Donald Trump made huge inroads with Gen Z voters, in part because Democratic messaging to young men failed to resonate with them.
Hogg made a version of this argument on Bill Maher's show last weekend, and the comedian was impressed enough to give Hogg a standing ovation and shake his hand. Hogg also won over centrist Democratic strategist James Carville, who had previously called him a "twerp."

Thank you very much and God bless you.
I feel more pity for the Greta mascot of climate change because she is clearly stupid. Hogg know full well what he is doing and does it anyway. He needs to be shunned!
Hogg is a fool.
Victim of stupidness........
“A survivor of the 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida”
A survivor because he was in Florida? He was not present. I live in Fl, I guess I am a survivor too.
Hogg is in the same class as Carville and Maher.
Yeah, but can be useful for our side at the same time. He could very well be the trigger that splits the Rats into two, and moves the extreme left to the fringes, where they belong.
Oink! Oink! Little Hoggy isn’t that choice slice of Harvard bacon he thought he was. LOL! He’s a real jackass.
“Survivor”? Well I suppose If you stretch the definition....
Given Hogg’s approach to life, I’ve always wondered how much he might have bullied that mentally ill minority kid that murdered his classmates. I also wonder how he managed to escape the carnage, given his father’s ties to the FBI. “What did he know, and when did he know it?”
Well, at least Hogg can enjoy his white male privilege.
YouTube clip from "Sneak peek: 39 Days - a CBS News Special".
David Hogg, another leftist democrat who has ridden a fictional account of his life to a place at the trough while producing absolutely nothing of value for America or Americans.
Of course Maher celebrated this creature of hate.
> He could very well be the trigger that splits the Rats into two… <
Yep. A big slice of the Democrat party is blue-collar workers, union members particularly. They vote Democrat because at one time the D’s were the party of the working class.
I can’t see those guys following the likes of David Hogg and AOC.
It remains to be seen if the GOP (the “stupid party”) will fumble away the opportunity here.
“”””A conservative publication made the same error, calling Hogg a survivor of the shooting. He was nowhere near the high school where the killings took place.””””
Look up where Hogg was, he was in class and at the school and hiding in a closet with other kids recording them on his phone, later in the day after the event he rode back to the school on his bike to see what the adults and investigators were doing.
The GOP is not stupid. They're just corrupt. They're just riding the Trump wave. Then it's back to business as usual.
Hogg has learned from the Past. SHitler, Marx and Bernie Sanders all have a dislike for PHYSICAL LABOR so went into politics. Waiting for that “Management Position”. God help us all if he gets it!
“… survivor of the 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida…”
He was nowhere near it when it happened.
