Default Donna Brazile: People Telling Me to ‘Shut Up’ Can ‘Go to Hell’

I can't say I agree with her politically, I like her attitude. Seems she's the only one NOT afraid of the Clinton Machine.

https://www.mediaite.com/tv/donna-br...an-go-to-hell/

As former DNC chair Donna Brazile spoke out on ABC’s This Week today, George Stephanopoulos brought up the pushback she’s been getting from Team Clinton.

An open letter from Hillary For America said, in part, the following:

Quote:
“We were shocked to learn the news that Donna Brazile actively considered overturning the will of the Democratic voters by attempting to replace Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine as the Democratic Presidential and Vice Presidential nominees. It is particularly troubling and puzzling that she would seemingly buy into false Russian-fueled propaganda, spread by both the Russians and our opponent, about our candidate’s health… We do not recognize the campaign she portrays in the book.”
Stephanopoulos said it sounds like she had a “pretty dysfunctional relationship” with people in the Clinton campaign.

She pushed back against the criticisms, saying she couldn’t “control the purse string of the Democratic party” and she was getting tired of people telling her how to spend money.

Brazile talked about all the time and energy she put into helping the Democratic party last year before saying this:

Quote:
“For those who are telling me to shut up––they told Hillary that a couple of months ago––you know what I tell them? Go to hell. I’m gonna tell my story.”
She also talked about the disturbing threats she and the DNC got during the campaign.

Everything, and I do mean everything, the Democrats do these days is scripted.

I bet every high profile Democrat even focus-groups what they're going to have for breakfast.

When it seems like someone is going rogue, I believe it's because it was supposed to appear that way.

Remember she is the one who rigged a debate by giving her the debate questions. I highly doubt she just all of a sudden developed a moral conscience and decided to do the righteous, if not courageous, thing by rising up against the evil and powerful Clinton machine.

It was determined from way up on high that this was they way the Progressives were going to move forward- by outrageously throwing the politically worthless public figure Hillary Clinton (and I suppose Bill too) under the bus. Someone who appears to be facing yet another serious round of criminal charges, which coulld plausibly result in further loss of Democratic Political Hay. They HAD to distance themselves from her. Apparently they decided that rather than have her fade off into nothing out of the public eye, which may not be an option with the whole Uranium One drama developing, that they must distance themselves as well as they could.

And they had it done by someone with a politically worthless current value.

Get rid of the Loser Candidate Has-Been, and let another politically dormant "hatchet man" do the deed.

Then they can rebuild with whomever they decide has the best chance of helping them rebuild Democratic political hay, from scratch.

And they couldn't do it with The Clintons still in the picture.

Yep. How much do you want to bet their next candidate will be someone famous and take a page out of Trump's book on how to get elected ?

I think what is happening is people realize the Clinton machine is on life support and flatlined.

And even more influential in that regard is that the usually tone-deaf Progressives have actually realized that a significant number of American people have figured that out.

while what Donna is currently doing seems to be favorable... she's trying her best to escape her past and rebuild her career as well:

Quote:
Donna Brazile finally admits she shared debate questions with Clinton campaign.

Veteran Democratic operative Donna Brazile finally admitted that she used her former position as a CNN commentator to relay questions ahead of debates to Hillary Clinton during the Democratic primary.

For months, Brazile has avoided confirming that hacked emails from the campaign showed her forwarding the questions, which were asked at separate debates. But in a new essay for Time magazine looking back on the hackings, she said it was true.

"[I]n October, a subsequent release of emails revealed that among the many things I did in my role as a Democratic operative and [Democratic National Committee] Vice Chair prior to assuming the interim D.N.C. Chair position was to share potential town hall topics with the Clinton campaign," she said.

As recently as February, Brazile would only say that the emails "allegedly" showed her forwarding the questions.

In her Time essay, however, she said she was remorseful.

"My job was to make all our Democratic candidates look good, and I worked closely with both campaigns to make that happen," she said. "But sending those emails was a mistake I will forever regret."

Brazile resigned from her duties with CNN.
Sadly, Brazile's new book will end up being nothing more than a very long

suicide note.

Bolded and enlarged due to it being a high probability of truth. Those folks will do anything....ANYTHING....to get what they want. For them to do this would not be surprising and actually expected.

Nope. The Trump haters and the disillusioned will combine their efforts and the next POTUS will be an independent. (after Trump's second term)

I agree if she is doing this its because she was told to do it to get the Clintons once and for all out of the way for new rats.

Interesting to note that one of the cherished people she dedicated her book to, besides family members was......Seth Rich.

Interesting that a low level staffer would merit that kind of shout out from Donna. Interesting.
