The democratic party is deeply flawed, and has an abundance of issues. However, it doesn't make sense to say this is a fault with that party, or to cast blame for her actions on them. She has been condemned by the party at the state and federal level, and has been kicked out of the party. So they do not condone her actions, and I don't know that there is any way for them to be more clear about that.

    Always an apology.

    Always an excuse.

    Not apologizing or excusing the party, and definitely not for Stevens. I just prefer to hold them accountable for the things they actually do. No need to make up things they didn't do.

    My point is that the Stevens' of the party aren't the exception: they are the core of the party. That might be shifting but we've seen this across and throughout party leadership and media.

    Simply retelling what they've already done, how they e already been, is important because Stevens isn't the exception: she's the rule. She is what mainstream/ centrist Democrats are.
