In her book Brazile also accused President Obama of having a "Titanic ego," and referred to the Clinton campaign as a "cult."
When you become a darling of the Right, and they make up the largest audience for your book, you really have to evaluate your priorities as a self described progressive.
I'm just saying.
Update: Now complaining about the Clinton Campaign on Fox News.

O Doinghis Civic Duty "the popular former president made a point of shaking the hands of the prospective jurors as they clamored for a chance to meet him, joking when he saw people had brought their books along: “Well look at this! Did you guys know I was coming?”"Thanks everybody, for serving on the jury," the former president, who traveled to the center from his home in Chicago’s South Side, added. "Or at least being willing to. This looks like Chicago right here, I like that."
ReplyDelete"Obama would have been paid $17.20 a day for his service, The Chicago Tribune reported, but was sent home without being chosen to serve on the jury."

Brazile = an egotistical angry bridge-burner who didn't make it as high as she wanted to before she hit "late career." and now she's bitter and flaming.
ReplyDeleteThat makes her a perfect fit for Clinton 2020.."Late career"...
DeleteA normal person would have been satisfied with what he or she had already attained. Brazile should be ashamed of herself.
DeleteBeaglemom
Well,clueless,Hillary has already told us she will not run in 2020,do you have some other garbage to post?I'm starting to wonder if it's all of the "Bernie Bro's"trolling because their little feelings are still hurt because the man that the GOP ignored because he could not possibly win the general election failed to win the primary.
DeleteI love and respect Hillary, but y'all know in your heart of hearts that we would not be living in mortal fucking hell if Bernie had been the candidate because he could have beaten 45* ~ in spite of the Russians.
Delete5:17AM, that's a laugh. The Russians were hacking our voting machines. Bernie wasn't going to win against that.
DeleteThe Russians did not hack 'our voting machines' 7:38. Those ridiculous conspiracies are the laugh.
Delete9:36AM, just wait.
DeleteRussia lost control of their "cash cow" so they rigged it.
DeleteThey are going to lose HUGE.
Who's got the Titanic ego, Brazile? Didn't he pay you enough attention? I will NOT buy this book nor read excerpts.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Brazile's role in the campaign should get looked at a little more closely. All this negativity coming from her makes me wonder whose side she was on.
ReplyDeleteCorrect, Jo. The question needs to be asked: Exactly when did Donna Brazile turn?
DeleteBecause turn she did.
Hello, Hillary won the popular vote. She lost the electoral by less than 80,000 votes. Why do people keep insisting that it was someone else's fault but her own that she didn't win those very critical states?
DeleteExactly 6:41, but why should Hillary and the elites care about flyover country? Hamptons and Hollywood. That is where all the action and fancy dinners are. Just ask Kevin Spacey and Harvey Weinstein.
DeleteMight want to check her finances and see if there are any Russian checks cashed....
DeleteAnon at 9:32 pm. Hillary Clinton ran a good campaign and her concerns and interests were for the things that matter most to the American people, wherever they lived. The media treated Hillary Clinton and her campaign like trash, the Russians corrupted the system at the behest of the GOP, and the GOP itself, in its fever to win, messed with the election process - from not allowing people to vote to faking broken voting machines and on and on. Why was the GOP so anxious not to allow recounts in the contested states? If they had won honestly, there should have been nothing to fear in the recounts.
DeleteBeaglemom
All I'm sure of is that if Hillary Clinton were our POTUS, we'd be in far, far better shape! The current (call him whatever you want - potus) is making America hated throughout the world and now by the majority in the United States (per the recent polls).
DeleteExactly how much are the trolls being paid to flood blogs with crap?

That is a whole lot of talk to deflect away from the point that she lost the blue collar rust belt and the midwest which she all but ignored.
Reality is your friend.
4:55 My thoughts exactly!!
Delete3:35 wow she lost MI by less than 1% which should have triggered a recount,but the republican governor stopped it. Even though there were missing ballots in Wayne county. So did she really lose,we will never know.
DeleteReality is your friend,she was in Mi a number of times
Still living off of conspiracy theories 8:24?
DeleteReality is your friend.
Jo why don't you take a few minutes to read up about Senator Joe McCarthy on Wikipedia? Because you are engaging in McCarthyism. The next election is 12 months away. Could we stopped being aggrieved and get to work to elect Democrats? This place sounds like a bunch of hateful angry nasty Trumpites these days.
Delete309 u mean like Sarah's?
DeleteYes,but let us not forget the book is about hacking,chap11 (not chap 1)is all about hacking :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like the rest is grudge payback.
Does Leah McElrath have a Russian ISP?
ReplyDeleteSorry, just so amused that now Donna is the reason Hillary lost.
She's trying to expose the hacks and all people can do is attack her about what she's said about the campaign.
Surprised someone isn't exercising their 2nd amendment rights on the messenger.
Yea right Obama's ego and Hillary's cult is all about hacking.
DeleteShe's 'trying to expose the hacks?" Really? Sounds to me like she's trying to sell a book full of lies. Are we sure this woman is a Democrat? She sure has no qualms about trashing Obama and Clinton.
DeleteIt appears that Donna is doing a lot more than talking about the hack. Obviously she also has an ax to grind and wants to sell books. Seems to me that it’s bad juju to burn your bridges with your former boss. Maybe Donna’s end game is a new career with FOX news.
DeleteShe also has stated the Chinese hacked the 2008 election,does that mean Obama didn't really win?
DeleteOh gosh now she is on Charlie Rose bitching about Hillary's campaign.
DeleteLately your true colors are showing,you seem tired of trying to stay under the radar.
DeleteYou are so right mlaiuppa. Hillary's people ARE condescending and dismissive, they ran a lousy campaign, and John Podesta didn't even have the sense to protect his personal email from hacking. But oh yeah Donna Brazile is a Russian plant and that's why Hillary lost. Pathetic.
Delete9:45
DeleteReading comprehension much? Who says Brazile was a Russian hack?
9:45 here
DeleteUm I was agreeing with you and laughing at the bits on here who think Brazile is a Russian plant. But OK.
I had to deal with her when I was working on staff of a campaign where she was involved. Long and short - she’s a worthless pain in the ass.
ReplyDeleteInteresting. She has always struck me as angry, closed and judgmental. Now on these talk shows she is a barrage of words.
DeleteI think, unfortunately, that Donna Brazile is all about herself. She clearly doesn't care about the Democratic Party or about the condition of the nation. Pathetic.
DeleteBeaglemom
Disagree, Beaglemom. She's telling the truth about Hillary and her people, which is a great service.
Delete9:46AM, Donna is a self serving liar
DeleteSound toxic whatever it is.
ReplyDeleteJimmy Kimmel is a genius,he is telling people to sign up for trumpcare at healthcare.gov.
ReplyDeleteThose moronic trump supporters are thanking him for supporting trump! They haven't figured out they are signing up for"Obamacare" HA HA
More than one way to fool a angry moron!
I told my husband that awhile ago. I said just call it Trumpcare and don't change a thing and all the idiots will be happy.
DeleteYep. It's all in the branding.
DeleteI said the Democrats should go ahead and fix the ACA and call it TRUMPCARE. Then Trump would be all for it. He just wants his name on something. Anything.
And Obama would be perfectly fine with calling the ACA Trumpcare if it continues to insure people and Congress fixes it for long term success.
When a democrat goes after a democrat, in this day, you have to wonder how much Putin paid them. Man, if any one had an ax to grind twould be Pooty.
ReplyDeleteAnd the raping of Alaska shall commence.
ReplyDeleteLisa Murkowski Introduces Bill To Open Arctic Wildlife Refuge To Oil Drilling
“This is not a choice between energy and the environment,” the senator said. “We are past that.”
...As written, the bill would require Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke to approve at least two lease sales — each no less than 400,000 acres — in the first 10 years. The first sale would be required within four years, with the second having to be finalized within seven years. The royalties from those sales would be split in half between the state of Alaska and the federal government.
The bill allows for 2,000 acres of the coastal plain to be developed with wells and support facilities.
Opening the refuge is also on the Trump administration’s wish list. In May, Zinke signed an order to “jump-start Alaskan energy production.” He said at the time that the move was an “important first step in a smart and measured approach to energy development in ANWR.” Additionally, the administration’s 2018 fiscal year budget calls for allowing oil and gas production in the coastal plain.
While Murkowski and the administration are confident about the economic benefits that would come from drilling in the refuge, their estimates have been highly disputed.
Adam Kolton, executive director of the Alaska Wilderness League, said in a statement Wednesday that “nothing in this bill can magically make these fantastical revenue assumptions materialize.”
“What this bill would do is turn America’s last great wilderness into a lost wilderness,” Kolton said. “Senator Lisa Murkowski had promised some kind of new and improved directional drilling, but that’s just a talking point. What we got was simply misdirection and deception. The fact is that the entire 1.5 million acres could be offered up in two massive lease sales.”

There is absolutely nothing that the 21st century GOP is not willing to destroy for their personal profit and pleasure. There is not a shred of civic responsibility or moral scruple among the lot of them.
DeleteBeaglemom
How many times do I have to say that Murkowski needs to be voted out of office - next time she comes up for reelection. She's in bed w/Trump and has always been!
DeleteFrank is a pussy grabber too.
Delete@12:10 Would that be daddy dearest Murkowski?
DeleteI loved Donna. I saw her at speak at events, read and watched her on tv but now...I will never spend one minute listening to her.Disgusting!
ReplyDeleteYou read the book?
DeleteOr you've turned on her over hearsay and comment over your own personal experience?
Nothing like a modern day internet tar and feathering by the racist white liberals around here, disapproving of, and attempting to discredit a well known and respected African American woman expressing her own opinions and convictions.
ReplyDeleteFor shame.
Racist? This is about opinions and ideas she is expressing. Race has nothing to do with it. You're a hoot. Dumb, dumber, and dumbest all wrapped up in one clueless package. What you are doing here is what the RW oligarchical propagandists do, use projection to denigrate their ideological opponents. They know it fools fools like you. You are a simple tool.
DeleteYou mean we aren’t ever allowed to disagree with the way Brazile is going about expressing her opinions because she’s black? That’s a pretty fucked up way of thinking.
DeleteI'm old,so forgive me for asking,is this what "concern troll" describes?
DeleteShe is well known..she gave clinton the questions and got slammed.
DeleteThey let her have the keys to the candy jar and limited her access to the candy and she was pissed of 3yr old.
I cannot believe she would turn on her own.
White liberals..wow,racist much?
Lame,when ever anyone disagree with a black person's opinion they are called racist.
DeleteIt gets a little tiring to keep having the race card played.
Kind of like when people disagreed with Kaepernick's actions 2:39, 5:08?
Delete7:20AM, where did you learn to debate? Demand a refund.
DeleteDefinitely an internet tar and feathering. She is willing to speak her mind, and liberal whitey don't like it when a black person starts straying off the message that has already been written for them and expresses their own thoughts.
DeleteIam a Native American Democrat. Not criticizing Brazile because she's a black woman with opinions but because she seems to be helping everyone but the democrats. For shame.
DeleteQuite patriotic, eh?
DeleteBill Clinton suggests Trump is part of a ‘Dictator’s Club’ that wants people to think ‘democracy’s no longer possible’
ReplyDelete...“And the Dictators Club in the world, they want two things,” Clinton said. “They want nuclear weapons, because they feel like they can never be dislodged no matter how much people hate them if they’ve got nuclear power. And they want to abolish the line between fact and fiction and truth and lie, because they figure if you don’t what’s true and you don’t think you could ever know, pretty soon, everybody will accept the fact that democracy’s no longer possible”
“Are you talking about foreign countries now or here,” O’Brien asked. “Because that shook me to the bone for a second.”
After Clinton took a long pause, O’Brien suggested the former president’s silence spoke volumes.

ReplyDeleteDonna Brazil's book reminds me of that wasillawendego who was nothing but a whore for the money and sold her should (if she ever had one) to anyone who had the greenbacks. I will NEVER read this bitch's book - I don't need to read the traitor's bullshit. Where was her outrage when she allegedly discovered the shocking "truth" about HRC? Nothing to see here folks, just another dumb ass traitor infected with ism symptoms of a disease known to many as traitorism. Trump isn't, Russian proprogandaism and colorism. Fuck you batzilla!
ReplyDeleteThe Clinton campaign WAS condescending and dismissive. They always are.
ReplyDeleteCould we stop reflexively attacking anyone who attacks Hillary and unite around winning in 2018?
This woman is an axe grinding cash grabber who went on promotion for a divisive book a week before election day. Do you think she cares about unity? You bet your ass I will attack her!
DeleteYes,at least her 5 mins of "fame" will be long over before she ruins the mid-term elections for the Democrats, probable working for trump.

Gerrymandering did backfire in one way. The most conservative Republicans now control those parts of the state. If a GOP member wants to win, he has to be ultra-conservative. Otherwise, he has no chance. There can be no moderates, no room for compromises. And that will kill their party in the end.
