Donna on Clinton Campaign: 'It Was Cult' (VIDEO)... The "arrogant" Clinton campaign was more like a "cult" than a political campaign. That startling accusation came ... not front a Republican, but the former chairman of the DNC, Donna Brazile. "It was a cult," Brazile said of the Clinton campaign. "I felt like it was a cult."
