Brazile: Dems Avoided Open Primary Because They Thought Trump Would Lose Due to Convictions

Video Source: HBO
Ian Hanchett 10 May 2025


On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” ABC News Contributor and former Democratic National Committee Chair Donna Brazile said that Democrats didn’t hold an open primary to determine their nominee in 2024 after then-President Joe Biden dropped out of the race because there was an assumption that then-candidate Trump’s convictions would tarnish him enough to ensure he lost “And they thought that it was going to be an easier task and that it wouldn’t matter.”

While discussing Biden’s recent interviews and the 2024 presidential race, Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) stated, “I think, for the Democrats, if they had an open primary, it would have made a difference.”

Host Bill Maher agreed with the assertion that an open primary would have made a difference.

Brazile then stated, “I also think most Americans assumed that the American people would not vote for a convicted felon. And they thought that it was going to be an easier task and that it wouldn’t matter.”

Democrats justify why they oppose democracy.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Yep. That, and they wanted someone who would not buck the people pulling the strings behind the curtain.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Which could have happened if they had expedited the sentencing process and thrown him in jail before the election. But they didn't.
