DNC Chairman: Brazile's Claims Are 'Ludicrous,' Refuses To Say DNC Will Investigate
Townhall ^ | Nov 05, 2017 | Timothy Meads

Posted on 11/06/2017 6:24:51 PM PST by MarvinStinson

Current Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez joined Chuck Todd on Meet the Press today to discuss a wide variety of issues currently facing the DNC. Not surprisingly, much of the conversation centered around former interim DNC Chairwoman Donna Brazile's new book, Hacks: The Inside Story of the Break-ins and Breakdowns That Put Donald Trump in the White House.

In Hacks, Brazile alleges that the 2016 Democratic party primary was rigged via Clinton operatives within the DNC as well as a culture of corruption that slighted Bernie Sanders' primary efforts.

Perez stressed his main focus as new DNC chair was reforming the party to earn the trust of the voters. When asked by Todd about the claim made by Brazile that she seriously considered replacing Hillary Clinton due to her failing health, Perez called it "ludicrous."

Perez: "I have great respect for Donna, I consider her a friend. She has done a lot for the Democratic party. The charge that Hillary Clinton was some how incapacitated is quite frankly ludicrous. Hillary Clinton was a tireless Senator, a tireless Secretary, and a tireless candidate...She was a workhorse."

Todd then asked whether or not Brazile fell for Russian propaganda, as the Clinton 2016 campaign team suggested in an open letter last night. The letter published on medium.com said:

"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."

Perez responded that he had no idea what Brazile "fell for...but frankly what saddens me is that people who read that charge, which is just without merit, are going to perhaps start wondering about other claims in the book."

However, to most people it would seem the only way to verify whether "other claims in the book" are true or not would be an investigation into them. Yet Perez refused to say whether or not such an investigation would take place.

Brazile knows where the bodies are buried.

If I were a rat, I’d be careful about crossing her.

Russian-fueled propaganda? How do those people keep a straight face?

PIAPS bought the democrat party fair and square after Bronco Bama siphoned the backing funds to give to his pet causes.

I wish people would understand this simple point. What did they expect PIAPS to do - just hand over the keys to a 74 year old nothing senator from Vermont?

Yet - you vermin attempt to overturn the will of the American voters by attempting to remove President Trump from office every minute of every day since he got elected.

Perez really knows how to schmooze the black part of the Democrat base. He disparages one of their own. Yeah, that’ll work.

Perez is an idiot. Not the type a collapsing political party needs to stop the collapse. Choosing someone to run the party just because they have a “Hispanic” name was really a dumbass move.

Just like my hamsters did when I was little boy, they are starting to eat their own. Stock up on popcorn because a little birdie told me this is going to get real entertaining over the next few months.

“Earn the trust of voters” LMAO.........as he attacks a black woman and props up the nasty white woman who called Donna a brain dead buffalo.

I hope a full-blown internecine race war breaks out within the Rat party. That would a lot of fun to watch.

Tom Perez is only “shocked” because a dyed in the wool democrat Donna Brazile is coming out and telling the truth about Hillary and DNC shenanigans.

Where is Hillary lately? She’s been pretty quiet as far as I know for the past 3-4 days.

Lest we forget: Tom “The Genius” Perez just last week proclaimed that there is no language in the Constitution regarding the electoral college.
