Twitter Goes Nuts Over Brazile's Hillary/Biden Claim: 'What the Hell Is Donna Brazile Doing'

[DonViejo]

Earlier today, the Washington Post reported that former interim Democratic National Committee chair Donna Brazile’s new memoir included her claim that following 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s highly publicized fainting spell weeks before the election, she considered replacing Clinton with then-VP Joe Biden.

With this bombshell excerpt coming on the heels of her previous explosive allegation that Clinton “rigged” the nomination process against Bernie Sanders — an accusation that has come under scrutiny after the memo of the DNC/Hillary deal surfaced — it was a given that there would be quite a reaction.

And it would appear that many folks online weren’t buying what Brazile was selling.

1. I have been giving her the benefit of the doubt w/d whole "rigged" crap but starting 2 u-turn on her

Disappointed, sad, shocked.

[Bleacher Creature]

7. In a way, she proved you right.

You gave her the benefit of the doubt that she wasn't trying to hurt the party to sell books. As it turns out, she was just plain nuts.

[NBachers]

2. Say it ain't so, Joe

[Wellstone ruled]

3. Nice not knowing you Donna.

[Progressive dog]

4. Brazile can probably sell a lot of books through Breitbart

and Fox.

[msongs]

5. she thanks you for publicizing her book! nt

[barbtries]

6. her credibility at this point

is approximately nil. what i don't get is the why do this and why do it now.

[Maven]

8. Wow. She really has an outsized sense of self-importance, doesnt she?

Especially for such an unimpressive and ineffectual political operative. Bye Donna!

[True Blue American]

10. Donna has always

Been about Donna,self aggrandizing importance.

[BigmanPigman]

11. "Outsized sense of self importance"?

Maybe she is following the moron in chief's footsteps and wants a job in his admin. She is perfect!

[Adrahil]

9. Is she the next Dick Morris?

Will she become a right-wing voice?

Will she be calling for another investigation of Uranium One?

[oasis]

28. Dick Morris had a few years to enjoy the fruits of his treachery.

Donna Brazile is already deep into "scrap heap of history" territory.

[trueblue2007]

12. i think Donna Brazile is nuts. Go to a doctor Donna.

[NastyRiffraff]

17. I think she prefers acupuncturists:

Brazile describes in wrenching detail Clinton’s bout with pneumonia. On Sept. 9, she saw the nominee backstage at a Manhattan gala and she seemed “wobbly on her feet” and had a “rattled cough.” Brazile recommended Clinton see an acupuncturist.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/brazile-i-considered-replacing-clinton-with-biden-as-2016-democratic-nominee/2017/11/04/f0b75418-bf4c-11e7-97d9-bdab5a0ab381_story.html?utm_term=.61b2aa8310c0&wpisrc=al_news__alert-politics--alert-national&wpmk=1

An acupuncturist. Hillary Clinton was "wobbly on her feet" and had a "rattled cough" and Donna suggested an acupuncturist? Why not an exorcist?

[SCantiGOP]

21. Leeches always work for me

[Honeycombe8]

13. How can she continue in a place of prominence in the DNC after this book?nt

[joshcryer]

14. She can't.

[Honeycombe8]

15. So I guess she was demoted or kicked out, and this is payback. She'll get a lot of $ for the book.nt

[NastyRiffraff]

19. She's done.

She has to know she's burnt her bridges with the Democratic Party. I look for her on Fox News, soon.

[cwydro]

16. Dayum, I used to like her.

Wtf is she doing?

[YOHABLO]

18. Her feelings were hurt .. so she's getting her revenge. True or False? who knows.

?

[dalton99a]

20. Maybe Trump will give her an offer

[BainsBane]

22. That she sent Clinton the debate questions

Is part of what makes this all so bizarre. Yglesias is right.

[Wwcd]

27. That was weird too. Hillary is so politically smart she she would never

need to cheat on debate questions.
I think Brazile offered the questions to Sec Clinton then leaked it to the press.
Brazile was another mole put in place to damage the Dems & HRC's campaign.

Create a smear for the headlines.

[BainsBane]

29. I dont know that she was a mole

But you’re right Clinton didn’t need then. She is always extremely well prepared.

[Scurrilous]

23. K&R

[Tarheel_Dem]

24. Well, I'm sure DB & her publicists are ecstatic at all the buzz the excerpts have produced.

I used to be a big fan, but this is gaslighting on a Russian scale. I never expected this from Brazile. Thirty pieces of silver better see her through retirement, because she'll never work in Democratic politics again. Sounds as if this may be her revenge for getting booted from CNN.

[coolsandy]

25. If Biden does run, Donna just hurt his chances.

Some are still smarting from Joe's weak faint-praise support for Hillary. i guess he will be targeted as part of the "establishment" also? The circular squad will enlarge.

[Wwcd]

26. "Hello Joe? You wanna comment on Brazile?"

"Joe? You there?"
