In a rare show of support for DNC Chairwoman and Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D), The White House has come out defending Wasserman Schultz’s decision to limit the amount of Democratic presidential debate,s a move that has been criticized by two Democratic Party vice chairs, Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D) and R.T. Rybak.
Rybak went as far as to say that he has “serious questions” about Wasserman Schultz’s leadership.“Debbie Wasserman Schultz has been a great leader and the president is grateful for her service, not just for the people of Florida, but for her work leading the Democratic Party.”- WH spokesman Eric Schultz (Hill)
Wasserman Schultz has been in the hot seat over at the DNC and was once said to be on the chopping block, but before she could be axed in 2012, Wasserman Schultz was able to deliver President Obama a second term, which all-but obligated the president to keep her on as his top Democrat.
Do you think the 2nd Amendment will be destroyed by the Biden Administration?(2)
Back in 2012, we wrote about the ongoing rift between Wasserman Schultz and President Obama.
It’s not about you, its about me. – attributed to President Barack Obama to Debbie Wasserman Schultz, as per our source
The problem that the President has is this- he can’t fire her, at least at this juncture. If President Obama were to remove Wasserman Schultz from her post he would be weakening his own position, as it would be very hard to find someone that is both in lock-step with his agenda and willing to run cover for him as she has done.
Second, this would be a clear indication to the public that there are real problems within the hierarchy of the Democratic Party.
