This is the Hillary defense that took days to come out and admit.

with almost 4 million votes.

I guess by next month it'll be 5 million votes.

Their lies take on a life of their own, don't they?

“Brazile was fired from the Michael Dukakis 1988 presidential campaign against then Vice President George HW Bush. Brazile lied about a made up affair that H.W. Bush was allegedly having.”

Or was she lying. Now that we’re getting to see just what a perv Bush Sr. is, since his mind is going south, perhaps there was something to this after all.

This book is Brazile’s retirement fund. She could care less about the truth, the more sensational, the more readers. She wants every Bernie Bro to pony up their SSI disability payments or welfare check to buy it. She’ll retire to Costa Rica.

...urging the Democratic party and media to “move on” from 2016.

Does that include Mueller and the Trump investigation too, or are we just supposed to move on from Democrat 2016 election crimes?

A WikiLeaks e-mail dump revealed that Brazile sent an e-mail message on March 5, 2016, to John Podesta and Jennifer Palmieri with the title: “One of the questions directed to HRC tomorrow is from a woman with a rash.” The message continued, “her family has lead poison and she will ask what, if anything, will Hillary do as president to help the ppl of Flint.”[22]
At the next event in Flint, Clinton was delivered a similar question from audience member Mikki Wade, whose family was affected by the poisoned water.[23]
On October 11, 2016, a WikiLeaks e-mail dump included an e-mail Brazile sent on March 12 to Clinton communications director Jennifer Palmieri with the subject header: “From time to time I get questions in advance.”[24] In the e-mail, Brazile discussed her concern about Clinton’s ability to field a question regarding the death penalty, and in a CNN town hall debate the following day, Clinton received a similar question about the death penalty.[22][25] According to tech blog Errata Security, the e-mail in question was verified using an everyday verification program and the DKIM system.[26] Brazile at first vehemently denied receiving or furnishing the Clinton campaign with any town hall questions and dismissed the Wikileaks organization as “sad ass whipper leakers [trying] to destroy [her] groove”.[27] She accused TYT Politics reporter Jordan Chariton of “badgering a woman.” [28] Questioned by Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly, Brazile said, “As a Christian woman, I understand persecution. I will not sit here and be persecuted because your information is totally false.”[29]
Jake Tapper, a former colleague of Brazile’s at CNN, provided his perspective on the possibility of a leak of a question to a Presidential candidate, calling it “very, very upsetting” and added that “journalistically, it’s horrifying”. Brazile, however, said that her conscience was “very clear”.[30][31] She later commented: “If I had to do it all over again, I would know a hell of a lot more about cybersecurity.”[32]
In a talk at the College of Journalism and Mass Communications on the University of Nebraska-Lincoln campus on October 12, Brazile condemned the leaks, which intelligence officials said came from Russia,[33] were to “manipulate an election, disrupt or discredit or destroy our democracy” and ultimately try to “produce an outcome more favorable to them and their interests,” Brazile said.[34]
On October 31, 2016, The New York Times reported: “CNN has severed ties with the Democratic strategist Donna Brazile, after hacked e-mails from WikiLeaks showed that she shared questions for CNN-sponsored candidate events in advance with friends on Hillary Clinton’s campaign.”[35] CNN said it had accepted her formal resignation on October 14, adding: “We are completely uncomfortable with what we have learned about her interactions with the Clinton campaign while she was a CNN contributor.”[36]
On November 1, 2016, an internal call about the collusion was initiated by CNN President Jeff Zucker. Zucker informed his staff that, while the instances have been fully investigated and the perpetrators dealt with, the perception that campaigns could receive questions in advance “hurts all of us,” adding that, “I have no tolerance for her behavior or that kind of behavior,” going on to describe former network commentator Brazile’s interactions with the Clinton campaign as “unethical” and “disgusting.”[37]
On March 17, 2017, Brazile admitted to forwarding debate questions to Clinton’s campaign during the 2016 Democratic primary, while she was Vice Chair of the DNC and working as a CNN commentator.[38][39][40] In an essay she wrote for TIME magazine, she said, “Then in October, a subsequent release of e-mails revealed that among the many things I did in my role as a Democratic operative and D.N.C. Vice Chair prior to assuming the interim D.N.C. Chair position was to share potential town hall topics with the Clinton campaign.” Brazile went on to explain: “My job was to make all our Democratic candidates look good, and I worked closely with both campaigns to make that happen. But sending those e-mails was a mistake I will forever regret.

...You'll likely recall Donald Trump's frequent play to Bernie supporters during the general election, claiming that the Democratic establishment "rigged" the nominating process..."

Google search...

"Trump was wrong" = 261,000 hits
"Trump was right" = 494,000 hits

Didn't Rush Limbaugh say on Friday that the next phase of the Donna Brazile story is for Democrats to start impugning her integrity in order to discredit the story?

Who cares what Guy Benson has to say?

Fact is Clinton handily defeated Sanders.

Crybaby snowflakes gotta cry and melt.

Of course it was “rigged”. It always is. That’s politics.

The Republican side was rigged too. It was rigged against Trump and it was rigged against Cruz.

Yet they ended up being the two top vote-getters.

Bernie people are the worst sort of crybabies and nanny state communists there are.

That little tidbit about George HW "Gropey McGrabber" Bush caught my eye, too.

I'm thinking it was true, too...

It is a rich irony that Robby Mook is encouraging the media and political opponents to move on from 2016.

Hillary Clinton has spent the better part of the past year blaming everybody but herself for her colossal 2016 loss.

Absolutely.

And you know why she did? Number one she cheated. Number 2 the rats gave her automatically thousands of extra super delegates and Bernie Sanders only a few hundred. Number 3: Stupid Bernie Sanders went along with it and did not complain.

That bitch did indeed steal the nomination from Bernie Sanders.

Thank God President Elect Trump won and will win his 2020 reelection.
