Political strategist and former chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) Donna Brazile clashed with former White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus on Sunday as he tried to defend former President Donald Trump’s record while discussing his campaign messaging.
The two political figures appeared on ABC News’ “This Week” to discuss Republicans’ internal conflict over Trump’s messaging against Harris as some want Trump to focus on policy rather than personal attacks. As Priebus tried to discuss how Trump is faring in the election and appealing to voters on key issues, Brazile interrupted, stating that voters don’t want a president “who basically divides us.”
“Well, look, I don’t disagree with some of those folks in that — number one, if this election comes down to the economy and the border, Trump wins. Right now, Kamala Harris is trying to reinvent herself into something she’s not,” Priebus stated before ABC host Martha Raddatz interrupted.
As Raddatz asked Priebus to focus on Trump, Brazile jumped in the conversation to make a comment about the election. The former White House chief of staff continued to state that Trump represents “a huge middle finger to a lot of people,” and argued that voters are still upset over the economy and inflation under the Biden administration.
“The thing is with Trump, you can’t also, to win this election, you can’t divorce yourself of who Donald Trump is and his personality. Like I’ve said before, there’s a part of Donald Trump that brings a large part of this country together. He represents a huge middle finger to a lot of people. People are upset about what the economy is. Inflation is out of control. Price setting doesn’t work,” Preibus continued.

Raddatz jumped in again to point out that Trump isn’t sticking to his policy message. Brazile then continued to criticize the former president, stating how “people are tired” of his “lies” and “insults.”
“We know Donald Trump, we know that every time he opens his mouth, there’s nothing but lies, insults, and vulgarity, and people are tired of it. The American people don’t want this anymore,” Brazile shouted. “They don’t want a president who basically divides us. They don’t want a president who calls us names. Who cannot even pronounce the name of the vice president of the United States. It’s Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris.”
