Donna Brazile, former DNC chair, will talk politics with Republican Ana Navarro at Miami Book Fair
Former Democratic National Committee chair Donna Brazile made headlines this week when she revealed in her new book that the 2016 Democratic Party showed favoritism to Hillary Clinton during the 2016 campaign.
Now, at Miami Book Fair, you can hear Brazile discuss the controversy and “Hacks: The Inside Story of the Break-Ins and Breakdowns That Put Donald Trump in the White House.” She’ll be in conversation with outspoken Republican strategist and political commentator Ana Navarro.
Suddenly, with old Democratic squabbles revived, “An Evening With Donna Brazile in Conversation with Ana Navarro” is a hot book fair ticket. Read Politico’s excerpt of Brazile’s book, and you’ll understand.
And though the speakers are members of opposing political parties, they share a common disdain for the current president.
The Nicaraguan-born Navarro has been extremely vocal about her opposition to President Trump’s administration and Tweets about it on a regular basis.
Democracy supporters have every right to be apoplectic at the complete lack of sanity, decorum & respect of institutions by #PresidentLoco! https://t.co/1D94j6bjjz

Brazile, too, has engaged the president via social media. In response to the news about the DNC, President Trump Tweeted that “This is real collusion and dishonesty.” Brazile took to social media to set the record straight.
Donald Trump says I said “DNC RIGGED the system…” First of all, I don’t speak in CAPS! #NotWhatISaid
