Nearly 100 Clinton campaign staffers hit back at Brazile
The Hill ^ | 11/4/17 | Max Greenwood

Posted on 11/04/2017 5:18:12 PM PDT by markomalley

Nearly 100 former Clinton campaign staffers have signed onto an open letter hitting back at former Democratic National Committee head Donna Brazil's depiction of the campaign in her upcoming memoir,

In the letter, 94 former campaign members said that the campaign portrayed by Brazile is unrecognizable to them, and blasted the former DNC interim chair for once considering removing Clinton as the party's presidential nominee – a revelation made in Brazile's book.

"Donna came in to take over the DNC at a very difficult time," the letter, published on the website Medium, reads. "We were grateful to her for doing so. She is a longtime friend and colleague of many of us and has been an important leader in our party. But we do not recognize the campaign she portrays in the book."

The former staffers also accused the former DNC interim chair of buying into "false Russian-fueled propaganda, spread by both the Russians and our opponent," claiming that Clinton's health was deteriorating during the campaign.

In her memoir, Brazile says that it was "shameful" that Clinton's campaign sought to conceal details about her health.

The staffers' letter casts the Clinton campaign as "unlike any in our history," and brushes off the notion that the former secretary of State was a weak candidate who failed to drum up voter enthusiasm.

"We have now, as we did throughout the campaign, enormous love and pride for our candidate, Hillary Clinton," the letter reads.

"She, more than any of us, persevered through an incredibly difficult campaign and her commitment and stamina inspired us every day. We are very proud of the effort she and the campaign made in both the primary and the general election."

It’s notable that Hillary herself has been making Freudian-guilt references to heavy drinking after the election to win cheap laughs.

The reality is that she was abandoned in very public fashion by her husband and is virtually friendless except for campaign toadies. She long ago turned to alcohol as a companion. Her physical health is poor because she’s heavy and menopausal but the drinking is what kept her hidden from view for days and weeks at a time despite the urgency of the campaign.

Isn’t Arkancide usually reserved for those who are suspected of PLANNING to go rogue?

I don’t think I would feel safe, relying on that thought. You just never know about the Clinton slime machine. I have a feeling, they could cause ANYONE to commit Arkancide, and I mean, quite literally, ANYONE.

Reminds me of Monica’s blue dress. Without it, she most likely would be dead now.

She had 100 staffers?


I remember reading, a few weeks ago, that the evil witch STILL
maintains a HUGE, paid staff.

Why?? To keep their taps shut??

Donna best go into hiding. She may wake up dead.

I think she may already be familiar with the methods taken in the past and is taking appropriate actions.

She may have even sent word out that she had an "untimely death time bomb" of information to be released upon her untimely death.

If Hillary told them all to take rat poison they’d do it. As would many of her voters.

Reminds me of Camazotz, the mind-control town in the book A WRINKLE IN TIME, where every kid bounces balls at the same time.

Interesting that DB mentions PIAPS’ poor health - just as we suspected all along.

Could be right. Only the Clintons know for sure.

Infighting and backstabbing in the lunatic liberal camp is fantastic. Their websites are apoplectic and on the verge of meltdown.

Pneumonia is serious but with proper medical attention a person should recover. Yet Brazile thought it serious enough to replace the candidate?

And say what one will about her, she has been in the business a long time yet she is not a blindly obedient myrmidon of Hillary Clinton. Though mindful of possible danger, she is apparently not morbidly afraid of Hillary. Nor is she tone deaf. The excerpts reveal a woman with keen antennae, no illusions about people, and the brain of an organization man.

If the DNC had had more such adept tool users — well, we’re very lucky they didn’t.

It makes one wonder why they have such loyal followers. I can kind of understand Bill -— he knows how to work people. But what could they POSSIBLY see in Hillary? I just don’t get it.

What a cat fight. Brazile is going to sell a lot of books now.
