quote:

Former Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Donna Brazile said Hillary Clinton's campaign was like a "cult" that became impossible to persuade that it needed to reach out to other states that Donald Trump eventually won.

"It was a cult," she said on MSNBC. "I felt like it was a cult. You could not penetrate them."

Brazile said she has the ability to help candidates reach out to voters, but not if the campaign doesn't agree not spend resources.

"I cannot help a candidate... if I don't have the resources, if I cannot spend the resources that the party is raising," she said.


Can anyone name the reasons why Donna would say this?

Because its true. Read "Shattered" and it's pretty easy to see why Clinton lost and would have made an absolutely terrible President.

Cause they suck. Donna was very disappointing on Tucker last night. She crawfished and bullshitted her way through the entire interview. I get the impression that she's getting a shitload of pressure from Dems to back off on what she wrote, and that's what she's doing. The whole interview was a waste.

It’s blame deflection, trying to put everything at Hillary’s feet instead of their own to retain credibility for 2020.

It won’t work considering how the DNC was a butt puppet for the Hillary campaign.

As much as I dislike Donna Brazile, she has spent her entire adult life involved in Democratic politics. That her opinion and suggestions were completely ignored by Clinton shows just how narcissistic Hillary is.

She wanted to send DNC money to her friends in Louisiana. Hillary said no. We are not going to line your friends pockets in Louisiana with our money.

Still making my way through it but it paints a picture of Hillary that I always thought was true but to see it upclose is still pretty amazing. It's pretty damning considering the authors are left-leaning and were writing what they thought was going to be the play-by-play of the first female President.

More like you aren't going to take money out of my pocket. Remember this was DNC money, not Hilldog money.

She makes money for running minority GOTV efforts and Clinton didn't cough up the dough?

They should have gone the Heaven's Gate route following the defeat.

Yep, it pretty much makes everything she wrote in the book useless with all the backtracking she's doing.
