Will someone please explain why Clinton names Wasserman Schultz 'honorary chair'?

Following Sunday's news, however, Clinton responded with a statement thanking her "longtime friend" for her service to the party and, seemingly without irony, announced that Wasserman Schultz would now serve as her campaign’s honorary chair.

"There's simply no one better at taking the fight to the Republicans than Debbie," Clinton said, "which is why I am glad that she has agreed to serve as honorary chair of my campaign's 50-state program to gain ground and elect Democrats in every part of the country, and will continue to serve as a surrogate for my campaign nationally, in Florida, and in other key states."

Honorary chair? Mission accomplished?

To be clear, I’m a long term institutional Democrat. I understand that we need to stop Trump. I took my Bernie sticker off my car many weeks ago, and I’ve replaced it with Hillary. But….

Could there be any more tone-deaf move than this?

Without letting an hour pass, Hillary names the former DNC chair as her honorary chair. It is as much as saying to the left, “We don’t need your votes. Go away.” That is how I read it, and as I say, I am not one of the Bernie or Bust folks, I’ve been arguing against them for several months now. And in one swoop, Hillary cuts the ground out from my argument.

What is she thinking? Anybody?
