Former interim DNC Chair Donna Brazile revealed evidence that confirmed the Committee rigged the primary for Hillary Clinton in 2016. Of course, we all knew this from Wikileaks last year, but the admission from such a powerful party figure is a surprise.
It wasn’t too long ago that the official party line was that the primary wasn’t rigged. In fact, earlier this year, current DNC Chair Tom Perez said while running for the position, “We heard loudly and clearly yesterday from Bernie supporters that the process was rigged and it was. And you’ve got to be honest about it. That’s why we need a chair who is transparent.” Ironically, he soon backpedaled and claimed he misspoke. So much for transparency – you got it right the first time, Tom, even if you weren’t allowed to say it.
Now the dam is officially breaking. In the wake of Brazile’s explosive news, Senator Elizabeth Warren agreed that the nomination was rigged.
Do you agree with the notion that the DNC was rigged in Hillary Clinton's favor?

Don’t forget, Warren spent a lot of time campaigning for Hillary last year.
All of this brought to mind this Tweet from Hillary Clinton quoting Sen. Warren as saying, “When we turn on each other, we can’t unite to fight back against a rigged system,” which didn’t age well.

Hillary, you ARE the rigged system. And that is why so many of us united to fight back against you last November. And, apparently, now the Democrats are starting to turn on her, too.
Former DNC Vice Chair Rep. Tulsi Gabbard also agreed that the system was rigged and said, “Today we heard from Donna Brazile that what many suspected for a long time, is actually true: the DNC secretly chose their nominee over a year before the primary elections even occurred, turning over DNC control to the Clinton campaign.”
Here’s another Tweet that DID age well:
Bernie Sanders is being treated very badly by the Democrats – the system is rigged against him. Many of his disenfranchised fans are for me!

He called it all along!
President Trump pounced on the newest revelations, tweeting:
Donna Brazile just stated the DNC RIGGED the system to illegally steal the Primary from Bernie Sanders. Bought and paid for by Crooked H….

….This is real collusion and dishonesty. Major violation of Campaign Finance Laws and Money Laundering – where is our Justice Department?

It’s going to be fun to see what the fallout from this and any other Brazile book revelations is.
Something tells me this is only the previews – I’ve got my popcorn ready and a front row seat!
