Donna Brazile to Critics: Go to Hell





Former Democratic National Committee Chair Donna Brazile on Sunday fired back against critics who are accusing her of stoking unnecessary tensions within the party. “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 want to tell my story,” Brazile said on ABC’s This Week, adding that she “found no evidence” that the 2016 Democratic primary was rigged against Bernie Sanders. In her new book, Brazile writes that she considered moving to replace Clinton with Joe Biden after Clinton fainted after a 9/11 memorial ceremony last year. “This was something that you play out in your mind,” Brazile said of that consideration.

George Stephanopolous does a great job of interviewing her asking hard questions and although she is a good politician dodging and weaving she does not help herself. She has an ego bigger than the rest.

If she had to say this, why not before? And I already knew Hillary was favored by the DNC. I think it is best to focus on having a better process next time.

as far as her allegations go is that she wants to make money selling her book. I'm so disappointed in her for this. At one point I'd wondered if the Russians had gotten to her too, but realized this is bordering on paranoia. You just never know. It seems a lot of our political figures like that Russian money. The story about Nixon receiving a briefcase full of a million dollars almost seems benign compared to what we've been seeing the past few years.

I'm just about convinced that Hillary Clinton has been the most maligned person in human history. Seriously.

I'd like to see DB try the GTH defense on Joy Reid's show.

In fact, I would pay good money to see Joy question Donna on her recent claims.
