Bernie Sanders & DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman-Schultz’ Feud Continues
There has been no love lost between Democratic Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders and Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz. Wasserman-Schultz, a congresswoman from south Florida, has been vocal in her support for party front-runner Hillary Clinton. But she is now facing a primary challenger in her re-election bid, and her opponent is now getting major help from Sanders.
FOX’s Eben Brown reports from Miami:
Florida congresswoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, also the Democratic chair and lead spokeswoman, is again running to keep her seat. But an in-party challenger is getting big help from Bernie Sanders:
(Sanders) “Clearly I favor her opponent. His views are much closer to mine.”
Sanders on CNN this weekend. The challenger is Tim Canova, a law professor.
Sanders is now fundraising for him, as establishment Democrats like Vice President Joe Biden have been for Wasserman-Shultz. Sanders and Wasserman-Shultz have feuded often, with the former accusing the latter of hindering his campaign.
