Dems, Journos Denied Dem Primary Rigging For Clinton
Daily Caller ^ | 11/03/2017 | amber athey

Posted on 11/03/2017 2:53:29 PM PDT by Mount Athos

Ari Berman, writing in The Nation in June 2016, called election rigging a “conspiracy theory” that has been “extensively debunked.”

“Outlandish claims fall apart when subjected to closer scrutiny,” Berman asserted.

Dana Houle, meanwhile, wrote an article for the New Republic in July titled “No, the DNC Didn’t Rig the Primary in Favor of Hillary.”

He also urged Democrats to “stop quibbling about whether the DNC rigged the nomination” and instead focus on the Russians’ ability to hack into email servers.

Patrice Taylor, the DNC’s director of party affairs & delegate selection, insisted that “the election is not rigged for one candidate or another” while defending the party’s use of “superdelegates” in a Medium post last February.

Tom Perez, who now chairs the DNC, said that Clinton won the primary “fair and square” and that he had previously “misspoke” when he suggested the primary was rigged.

Can someone in the Democrat Party please explain to me the need for "Super Delegates?"

In other words, it wasn’t only reporting on republicans where #FakeNews dominated. Thanks to compulsive leftist liars, reporting on the democrats also emphasized #FakeNews.

I have to laugh when they say they don’t steal elections.

They obviously do and tell every one they were clean and fair.

Except of course when they lose. Then the Russians and Trump are to blame.

Got it.

Excellent 3 paragraph summary of Democrats and what they do during elections.

“I have to laugh when they say they don’t steal elections.

They obviously do and tell every one they were clean and fair.

Except of course when they lose. Then, the Russians and Trump are to blame.”

The reek of betrayal is streaming thru the ranks of the defeated Dems. Brazile has ripped off the bandage and exposed the cancerous tissue.

Notice Hillary's egregious money-laundering scheme as she grabbed the financial and administrative reins of the Dem Party.

Exerpt from Hacks: The Inside Story of the Break-ins and Breakdowns That Put Donald Trump in the White House:

Individuals[Democrat donors]who had maxed out their $2,700 contribution limit to the campaign could write an additional check for $353,400 to the Hillary Victory Fund—that figure represented $10,000 to each of the 32 states’ parties who were part of the Victory Fund agreement—$320,000—and $33,400 to the DNC. The money would be deposited in the states first, and transferred to the DNC shortly after that. Money in the battleground states usually stayed in that state, but all the other states funneled that money directly to the DNC, which quickly transferred the money to [Hillary's campaign headquarters in] Brooklyn.

“Wait,” I [Donna Brazile] said. “That victory fund was supposed to be for whoever was the nominee, and the state party races. You’re [Gary Gensler, the chief financial officer of Hillary’s campaign] telling me that Hillary has been controlling it since before she got the nomination?”

Eugene McCarthy - who knocked LBJ out of running as 1968's analogue to Bernie Sanders. In 1972 the Democrat Party Mandarins discovered that George McGovern won their primaries fair and square. So after two non-establishment winners, Super Delegates would keep the hoi-poli forever in line.
