Discussions underway to not have Debbie Wasserman Schultz appear on DNC stage

Source: MSNBC

This was just announced on Andrea Mitchell's show by Chris Jansing. After what happened at the Florida delegation breakfast, this comes as no surprise.

Debbie should issue a public apology at the convention explaining that her emails were counter to the spirit of neutrality that the DNC must adhere to.

If she can't see her way clear to do that, she should quietly absent herself and not detract attention from the convention.

Let the ocean waves wash over you, and allow the convention to proceed in good order.

Your appearance at this point is a distraction.

Go to the beach.

What good could this possibly do?

This is the time for the party to unify and beat tRump ... DWS has been a polarizing figure and a mediocre (at best) DNC chair
