Wasserman Schultz resigning as party leader
CNN Politics ^ | July 24, 2016 | Jeff Zeleny, Eric Bradner and John King

Posted on 07/24/2016 1:49:07 PM PDT by PJ-Comix

Debbie Wasserman Schultz announced Sunday she is stepping down as chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee at the end of the party's convention, which is set to begin here Monday.

The Florida congresswoman's resignation -- under pressure from top Democrats -- comes amid the release of leaked emails showing DNC staffers favoring Hillary Clinton over Bernie Sanders in the party's 2016 primary contest.

Her announcement that she was leaving had pro-Sanders supporters cheering during a demonstration in Philadelphia and Donald Trump crowing, too.

Debbie blabbermouth Shultz regrets not using Hillary Clinton email server during primaries. Stating, if I had used that server I would not have been held accountable for these emails, precedent.

“DOWN goes Debbie!”

Odunga is probably happy, I believe the rumors he wanted her out long ago. But Debbie Downer pulled out the Women and Jooo card.

Debbie had to go down this time, no way she can drag Old Hag Clinton into this although we all know she is knee deep in the dung heap of this scandal.

Thank you Mr Assange, please may I have more!

“The leaked email story is dark. The DWS resignation is very dark. The start of the Dems convention is beginning in a dark, dark, almost like scary dark place”

Now that is funny!

And Trump is having fun. Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 9h9 hours ago
There is no longer a Bernie Sanders "political revolution." He is turning out to be a weak and somewhat pathetic figure,wants it all to end!
Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 9h9 hours ago
Sorry folks, but Bernie Sanders is exhausted, just can't go on any longer. He is trying to dismiss the new e-mails and DNC disrespect. SAD!
Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 2h2 hours ago
Today proves what I have always known, that @Reince Priebus is the tough one and the smart one, not Debbie Wasserman Shultz (@DWStweets.)
Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 2h2 hours ago
I always said that Debbie Wasserman Schultz was overrated. The Dems Convention is cracking up and Bernie is exhausted, no energy left!
Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 14m14 minutes ago
If the Republican Convention had blown up with e-mails, resignation of boss and the beat down of a big player. (Bernie), media would go wild
Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 5m5 minutes ago
Crooked Hillary Clinton was not at all loyal to the person in her rigged system that pushed her over the top, DWS. Too bad Bernie flamed out
Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 54s54 seconds ago
Even though Bernie Sanders has lost his energy and his strength, I don't believe that his supporters will let Crooked Hillary off the hook!

I honestly don’t understand the problem. Sanders wasn’t actually a Democrat (he joined for convenience to run for President), and he was very vocal over the years against the Democratic party.

So - what was the problem with the DNC favoring someone that was actually a genuine member of the party, as opposed to a fake?

“Except Hillary is putting DWS on her campaign”

Honorary 50 State Chair, whatever that is. All I know is that Sanders is a total FRAUD. There is just no way Clinton would have rubbed his face in her excrement by bringing on Debbie Downer WITHOUT his OK. There is just no way the Clinton machine could be that tone death.

Is Bernie going to tell his hoard of Savages to stand down? Good luck with that,

Hell Bernie was a no fight, weak, limp wristed wussy in his prime.

Except the Democrap officials were not honest enough to just say that, were they? They were too afraid of alienating Bernie supporters, so they pretended there was a fair and level playing field. DWS asserted her own impartiality a number of times. They lied and lied and lied.

OK - maybe. But - lie, lie, and lie is pretty much their status quo, not sure why in this situation it is such a big deal.

This means nothing unless the DNC female cabal ramrodding Hillary’s coronation continue to be exposed, and persecuted until their house of cards wobbles, and crashes.

Such action will expose all sorts of skullduggery that will turn many Democrat voters to Trump, or will cause them to simply not vote at all.

No good. She and the Estrogen Crowd of the DNC committed their fraud and rigged the primary.

She, and the other accomplices, needs to be indicted for Conspiracy.

I talked to an agent who was at Bernie Sanders' house.

Let's just say that using the word "hippie" to describe him is a kind adjective. The man said his home was a pig sty. Absolutely "trashed."
