But, it apparently wasn't just "right-wing kooks" who were focused on Hillary's health...according to Donna Brazile's new tell-all book, the interim DNC chair said she seriously considered replacing the Clinton-Kane ticket with a Biden-Booker ticket in the days following Hillary's "medical episode." Per the New York Post:
Silly, silly Donna Brazile. She's publishing a book detailing turmoil in the Democratic Party during the 2016 campaign, highlighted by her concern that Hillary Clinton was seriously ill and might need to be replaced by Joe Biden or Bernie Sanders.
In other words, the claim of allergies was a big fat lie. That prompted Brazile to contemplate starting the process of replacing Clinton, writing in her book that the campaign also was "anemic" and had "the odor of failure." She says she considered numerous tickets to replace Clinton and Sen. Tim Kane, and decided that Biden and Sen. Cory Booker (N.J.) would be the best.
It's not clear how long she deliberated or how many people she talked to, but Brazile writes that Biden called her on Sept. 12th. In the end, she says she made no move because she couldn't disappoint Clinton's supporters.
Comment: The funny thing is that Twitter Clinton-bots and so-called journalists took Donna Brazile's remarks about the possible replacement of Cheatery Clinton as meaning that "Brazile stupidly thought she could unilaterally remove Clinton as the nominee", and so the pawns closed ranks around their queen in what was a transparent propagandistic damage-control move, i.e. a straw man argument.
