DNC Staffer Has Meltdown During Meeting, Screams at Donna Brazile For Helping Get Trump Elected - Leah Barkoukis



This show me that the intern was too immature for the political process. It's about blame, not about rebuilding, not about America. It's about selfishness... "You and your friends will die of old age and I'm going to die of climate change."

I think this intern should see a mental health professional...

What do they say about a wild animal caught in a leg trap? That it'll chew it's own leg off?
What do they say about a wounded, cornered animal? The most dangerous?

The DNC needs to purge their political elite as well. It'll be 'healthy for them'.

No, he's not. Not even close. What he said was very stupid. You could stop all regulation based on climate change and humans will still be around 500 years from now. Provided that nuclear weapons don't destroy us first.

No I do not. His debatable climate predictions aside, the intern is right about many in the DNC helping this defeat and manipulating the DNC in favor of a very weak candidate.

Those are the comments that should be heeded and given attention.

Amazingly, I actually agree with you on something. Is the sky falling? ;)

Maybe not the best way to express his rage but his sentiment isn't wrong.

Across the whole country the Democratic Party lost about a as hard as one can lose. They decided to ignore the anti-establishment voices and that giant populist wave heading their way. The DNC is so out of touch with everyday Americans it is ridiculous. Every single person in the DNC should be fired and replaced with non-establishment, even anti-establishment, people. But they won't do that and that staffer who lost his temper knows it.

America wanted an anti-establishment candidate. The Republicans begrudgingly gave us one. The Democrats did not.

Hopefully the DNC has learned their lesson. But I have a feeling they didn't.

Nope they won't. Now that Republicans have "been shown the way" finding this new constituency in blue collar workers, and how to solidify their vote, they're smart enough to know how to keep them, and they certainly will not ever again make the mistake of ignoring them the way dems did.

1)Every candidate is different with different levels of baggage - the same democratic process used in 2008 was used in 2016. The DNC passed over Hillary in 2008 in favor of Obama if you remember. Political machines regardless of party have very little to do with ethics.

2)Most likely the reason is because the RNC doesn't put .gov, secret and top secret emails in the open on unsecured servers. Sorry, but I couldn't resist mentioning that.

1)I disagree, the DNC sided with Obama because young voters and african americans were very enthusiastic about supporting him, in addition to the traditional base liking him, and (from what I can tell/recall) he won a relatively honest primary albeit a heated one. Hillary peaked at luke warm this cycle, Bernie was drawing very strong support, and they forced her through anyway using dishonest and deceptive methods. Yes, they're often dishonest and deceptive, but don't usually pull out every shovel they can find to bury the candidate that threatens their chosen one. Then get caught doing it, and lose the election as a result. They at least need to maintain the appearance of being ethical, because people care about that stuff and vote accordingly. They were obviously and transparently corrupt this time around. I don't know if it's just plain incompetence, bad luck, or they thought it didn't matter because Trump! Russia!

2) No need to apologize, it's a valid point, and perhaps they might have been able to fake it better were it otherwise. Whether their data is more secure or just didn't contain the same caliber of scandals, that's a point for team RNC.

He may have raised a couple of good points. who knows how Tuesday would have turned out if the DNC, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Brazile and others hadn't rigged the Democratic primaries to ensure a Hillary win. A lot of the very young Sanders voters stayed home. They didn't like Clinton to begin with and some labeled her "Wall Street Hillary." Then when proof came out in the e-mails released that that the primaries were rigged, that was the last straw for them.

As you journey through life,
wherever you may go,
keep your eye on the doughnut
and not on the hole.

I saw those words on a mural in a Washington DC cafeteria which I was at a debate tournament back around 1969 and I have never forgotten them. Its telling you to look at what is important and not focus on nonsense. My future wife had to explain that to me when I proclaimed that it was stupid. Which puts me about the same age and experience as that intern who also has a lot to learn.

This intern was making a point about the role of the DNC and Brazille in giving us Clinton as the nominee. That is the doughnut. Some young intern popping off about climate change and being hyperbolic about it is the hole.

That is true. I still think Sanders would have won against Trump. Clinton had such a lackluster campaign. For running against such a powderpuff like Trump, she had every advantage....and she fudged it up and lost. Reminds me of the Dennis Green meltdown several years back. They knew who Trump was, they could have run a campaign and easily won. But they let him off the hook. And due to her lack of vigilance and campaigning, she lost. Everything is on the shoulders of the DNC & Clinton because this was the establishment that pushed for Clinton, and together they lost. They couldn't even beat Donald Trump. lol.

I'm not sure they had every advantage. Any candidate who was robustly anti-coal was going to have a weakness in Ohio and Western Pennsylvania this cycle.

Donna Brazile is responsible for this loss? A year ago nobody had heard of Brazile. Probably less than 10% of the population knows anything of her today. But keep looking for someone to blame. That will help in two years. Or four.

I don't think anyone is saying she is. Hillary Clinton bears the heaviest responsibility for the loss. But Brazile certainly was a willing enabler of her and does bear some stink of the result.

The most significant dangers to the planet are natural and there is nothing humans can do about them. Volcano eruptions in Yellowstone, the Pacific Rim the West coast and the threat of a meteor collision are all more threatening than humans. All of these have happened in the past.

Lots of blame to go around, but in the end voters preferred Trump to Clinton. You can only dodge the bullet for so long.

Our system - a holdover from the 1700's - allows the second place finisher who was NOT the choice of more Americans to win. And that was Trump.

I bet you didn't cry when Bill Clinton failed to get the popular vote...twice. Did you?

You damn sure wouldn't be complaining if Clinton won the electoral college and didn't get the popular vote.

I discount the illegals, dead people, the 60,000 new voters put on the Va ballot by McCauliffe.

But it doesn't matter. Rules is rules. Trump won.
