Sanders supporters see vindication in Brazile’s DNC revelations

Share:

Former Democratic National Committee (DNC) chairwoman Donna Brazile’s accusations that the party favored Hillary Clinton during the presidential primary have reopened old divisions, frustrating supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).

Brazile levied the charges Thursday in a Politico excerpt of her forthcoming book, “Hacks: The Inside Story of the Break-ins and Breakdowns that Put Donald Trump in the White House.”

In her book, Brazile depicts a DNC woefully mismanaged by chairwoman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) to the point that it had no choice but to rely on the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign’s extensive fundraising apparatus to stay afloat.

Brazile’s allegations that the DNC was dependent on Clinton offer further proof to Sanders supporters who believe the DNC was biased against their candidate.

“We all knew this was happening and the denials were just ludicrous — the entire Democratic Party establishment was united and aligned to do everything possible to deliver the election to Hillary Clinton, even if that meant taking unethical and corrupt steps,” Jonathan Tasini, a Sanders campaign surrogate who ran against Clinton for Senate in 2006, told The Hill.
