In reply to the discussion: Inside Hillary Clintons Secret Takeover of the DNC (By DONNA BRAZILE November 02, 2017) [View all]lapucelle
(21,074 posts)According to Donna of the HRC agreement involved paying off the DNC's massive debt by monitoring expenses, budgeting, loaning the party money to meet its operating expenses, engaging in robust fund raising for the organization.
HRC continues to raise funds for the party and donated a major asset, her valuable email list, without coaxing or negotiation.
Donna's account is self-serving at best. She didn't want to take the blame for failing to exercise due diligence as an executive of the organization or for the DNC debt through mismanagement, so she makes it clear that the fault lies with DSW and former President Obama.
Donna saved her explosive account of the "Clinton Takeover" for her book, knowing it would help generate buzz in the right wing media, driving sales.
The usual suspects are breathlessly reporting the explosive claims in Donna's tell-all tale. The story is all over RT, Breitbart, and it's the lede on Fox News.
I'd love to be able to read the actual documents, but they are not public. The only account we have is Donna's idiosyncratic framing of confidential information in the service of selling books.
