Reception

The book received attention in part for Brazile's claims that the DNC acted in favor of Clinton's campaign during the Democratic primaries, to the detriment of Bernie Sanders and his campaign.[1] Brazile also discusses Clinton's collapse in September 2016, and subsequent discussions about replacing her as the Democratic presidential nominee.[2]

Brazile's statements were investigated by The Washington Post,[3] which reported the fundraising agreement which Brazile alleged rigged the 2016 Presidential primaries for Hillary in September 2015 and how Sanders supporters knew about it and ridiculed it after details outside of fundraising were not yet disclosed to the public.[3][4]
