DNC layoffs with no severance leave staffers scrambling, union says - WaPo
The Democratic National Committee workers' union on Monday condemned layoffs by the organization, saying permanent employees were terminated last week with one day's notice and no severance pay.
While staff jobs at campaign offices routinely end after elections, the DNC laid off permanent employees, including people who had been told their positions would continue after the election, the staff union said in a statement.
As the party reels from election losses that cost it the presidency and majorities in both congressional chambers, grapples with questions about its identity and prepares to decide who will lead it as Donald Trump returns to the White House, the layoffs inject internal turmoil into the DNC's post-election reboot. The union hinted at groomercord, alleging that people in the organization had made decisions during the campaign that "created this situation."
"The DNC's senior leadership has chosen to leave loyal staff scrambling to cover rent, medical expenses and childcare costs," the union's statement said.
The cuts were announced starting on Wednesday night and were effective Friday; and DNC leaders did not tell staff how the layoffs were determined or whether additional cuts are planned, according to the union. Those laid off included people who had been with the organization for 40 years, the union said.

Don't worry wuys, /r/politics downmarseyd it which means this isn't apart of our current reality!
Apparently layoffs happen after every election, but imagine working 40 years for the bluetards only to get kicked to the curb so Beyonce can speak for 3 mins and get $10 million and you get literally nothing but an "I Voted" sticker roll (I'm kidding, they don't even get a sticker roll).

Is it really winning if you don't have to do anything? Left wing purity spirals don't require outside input.

These people are so cringe lol. The reason is literally "voters are r-slurred and think inflation was caused by joe biden."
This shit is reminding me of 2016 where every nitwit had a reason for why clinton lost.
Call a spade a spade. The median voter is literally r-slurred.

If you don't want to be blamed for inflation maybe don't open your term by bragging about trillion dollar infrastructure bills

You can cope all you want but if your voter base is r-slurred, that's what you have to work with. I agree with you, voters are just gonna vote with their lack of object permanence but instead of legitimately trying to make things better, dems are either too busy rolling in the mud with conservatives, corrupting the system they need the people to trust, or kowtowing to the people who demand power without offering anything helpful.
I really hope democrats use this time to reflect on how they can get back the voter base. Winning against republicans should be a slam dunk if you can point out how dipshit they are without getting caught up in semantics.
