- kagakuninja 2y agoMany people are butt-hurt their guy didn't win and don't like her.

A summary also at https://www.cnn.com/2017/11/02/politics/donna-brazile-dnc-book/index.html https://www.cnn.com/2017/11/02/politics/donna-brazile-dnc-bo.... Hillary Clinton basically took control over the DNC through financial dealings that Brazile (who took over as head of the DNC after these dealings) characterized as "if not illegal, then at least unethical".
