Hillary Clinton Robbed Bernie Sanders Of The Democratic Nomination, According to Donna Brazile
Newsweek ^ | November 2, 2017 | Greg Price

Hillary Clinton’s campaign took over the Democratic National Committee's funding and day-to-day operations early in the primary season and may have used that power to undermine her rival Senator Bernie Sanders, according to the party's one-time interim chairwoman.

The DNC official, Donna Brazile, now a political analyst, wrote in Politico Magazine on Thursday that she discovered an August 2015 agreement between the national committee and Clinton’s campaign and fundraising arm that gave Clinton “control (of) the party’s finances, strategy, and all the money raised” in exchange for taking care of the massive debt leftover from President Barack Obama’s 2012 campaign.

It wasn't illegal, Brazile said, "but it sure looked unethical."

"If the fight had been fair, one campaign would not have control of the party before the voters had decided which one they wanted to lead," Brazile wrote. "This was not a criminal act, but as I saw it, it compromised the party’s integrity."

Brazile wrote that she had “promised” Sanders to find out if the DNC had intentionally “rigged” the primary system in order to prop up Clinton and assure she became the nominee.....

As if she wasn't part of the conspiracy.

This was tiny compared to the national debt.

The rats are fleeing the ship. I have a feeling from now to Christmas may be ecstatic.

Can’t they go away?

Who does this?

The election is a year ago. The American people spoke. Loud and clear.

Wikileaks showed clearly that Brazile was involved in pushing the nomination to Hillary, for example by leaking CNN debate questions and causing trouble for Bernie delegates - so she is simply full of SH**

Perhaps someone is getting close to breaking Seth Rich or some other scandal, and she is doing some preventative ass-covering.

The DNC: a great bunch of guys who cannot seem to care if a crook perverted their primary process to the detriment of the Soviet-era holdover useful idiot their base largely preferred.

I think Bernie was just a shill; the Clintons paid him off.

Yep, she’s doing some major CYA.

More accurately, the Clinton campaign robbed the DNC of 99% of state-party-raised funds for itself, and left practically nothing for down-ballot Democrat state candidates.

Why are the Clintons and obamas not in prison?
Even the DNC did not think she would win. Even with crooked voter rolls in Los Angeles where some 2 million illegal votes were made she could not win.

From the book excerpt: The polls were unanimous in her winning but what, he wanted to know, was my own assessment?

I had to be frank with him. I did not trust the polls, I said. I told him I had visited states around the country and I found a lack of enthusiasm for her everywhere.

To the contrary. I hope this story stays on the front pages for quite some time. It exposes Hillary for what she is: a crook.

And every Bernie supporter, in particular, needs to be aware of this story.

My only question is why did Donna Brazile take this powerful swipe at Hillary in the first place? Was it merely to boost book sales? Or is something more going on here?

The title of her book should be, “I am covering my big black butt.”.
