under Wasserman-Schultz DNC Leadership goals help the GOP win.

It doesn't matter the intent. But I gotta tell you-DWS intent "appears" to seek to help get conservatives elected by keeping the current internal division strong while apparently attempting to Widen our division.

The consequences matter. What she did over the most recent elections caused massive losses for Dems. So, what did DWS do for Dems in 2015/2016? She tightened the rules and Increased restrictions. Winning strategy for Democrats or GOP?
Are "we" getting played (and falling for it?) by DNC/DSCC leadership? You decide.
In my opinion...something to consider.
