CNN’s Jeff Zeleny: Leaderless Democrats ‘in complete disrepair and disarray’

Via The Hill:

CNN’s Jeff Zeleny said Tuesday afternoon that the Democratic party has “no leader” and is in “complete disrepair and disarray.”

The perspective from the network’s senior White House correspondent came during a panel segment on possible Democratic candidates in the 2020 presidential election on CNN’s “Inside Politics.”

“The list of names that you read off is incredibly interesting. We’re not going to know for sure until after the midterm elections,” Zeleny told fill-in host Dana Bash. “That’s when things sort of start to see who’s the most popular campaigning this fall.”

“So I think that the party generally looks to someone new, not someone old,” Zeleny said, in what appeared to be a reference to Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign.

“We’ll see if that’s true this time, but it’s a huge problem for Democrats. There is no bench for the party. So they can be laughing all they want about these poll numbers for Donald Trump, but the reality is, Democrats are in complete disrepair and disarray in their own party. There’s no leader,” he concluded.
