Democrat Jen Psaki confirmed the biggest open secret about her party’s ‘nominees’ during MS NOW's primary election coverage on Tuesday night. Voters do not nominate them; instead, they are selected by the Democrat Party's leadership. Unsurprisingly, Kamala Harris isn’t the exception but the party’s longstanding rule. 'Holy shades of Graham Platner, Batman!'
Here’s more. (READ)
Jen Psaki admits on MS NOW that Democratic Party leadership used to “SELECT” the nominees, and nobody was allowed to say it out loud until now.
PSAKI: “We both remember well when party leadership really selected the nominees.”
“Now, you would never say it that way exactly, but they would. Now we can [say it]. We’re free!”
“They really did, because they would put money behind it. They would endorse. And now it looks very much like party leaders are not picking the nominees.”
“In fact, party leaders pushing nominees is a negative.”The party that claimed to represent “democracy” never trusted its own voters to pick their nominees.
Now, Psaki laughs: “We're free!”
There’s nothing democratic about the Democrat Party. Here’s Psaki telling the truth for once. (WATCH)

‘We actually hate democracy! Ha ha!’
Commenters have known about this for years. It's been a standard practice in the Democrat Party since at least 2016.

Yeah I remember when everyone voted in the primaries to nominate Kamala in 2024! And when all the candidates did democracy at the same time to coalesce around Biden in 2020! And then when the super delegates did a big democracy to Bernie again in 2016!

Yea, they still select and don't elect. They also cheat and steal elections. pic.twitter.com/MATu7TuOCE

The Party of no kings, actually selects the kings. This is called an absolute monarchy.

And the ‘No Kings’ crowd will dutifully and eagerly line up for the next Democrat Party coronation.
Commenters notice that the Democrat Party is trying to laugh off its most recent evil. We can add rigged nominations to the list.
This is the same as the “woke 1” comment.

“ok ok we admit it we don’t actually practice democracy hahahaha aren’t we so cute!? Whoopsieeee”
“Hahaha!”

More giggles like AOC saying the Woke v1 was whack.
Just perpetual games
It’s a game that supporters of the Democrat Party will line up to play again and again.
