Bill Fucking Clinton Accuses Bernie Supporters of Sexism
“I have no idea what they’re talking about or who they are talking to”, Clinton said of the Politico report. Even though she likes Clinton and voted for her in the 2008 primary, Manion said there’s just something special about the 74-year-old Sanders that reminds her of a young John F. Kennedy.
Sanders still leads Clinton 51%-44%, but his lead has shrunk 13 points from the 57%-37% lead that he enjoyed last week. “They know where I stand because I’ve always stood there”.
Late Monday, Sanders accused Clinton’s campaign of attacking on a variety of issues, from health care to gun control. Clinton gained seven points of support from Democratic voters while Sanders lost 6 points. “We’ve said that, if people are out there doing things on the Internet that are inappropriate, you know we want that to be no part of our campaign”. “In private [the Sanders campaign] sent an e-mail complaining [about the Democratic National Committee] leaving the keys in the vehicle, and said, ‘all I did was drive off'”.
Entering the community college today with daughter Chelsea at his side, Bill Clinton confessed that, ‘the harder this election gets, the more I wish I were just a former president… and not the spouse of the next one’.
The second incident happened in a New Hampshire town-hall setting, where Clinton waved off questions about why Goldman Sachs paid her $675,000 for three speeches. “I would be proud to have it (Warren’s endorsement)”. Democratic women didn’t rush to support sister Sarah Palin when she was the GOP running mate in 2008.
Mr Clinton was referring to the so-called “Berniebro” phenomenon in which a small number of Mr Sanders’ supporters have harassed those who disagree with them.
“It still exists”, said Dayton Duncan, a New Hampshire-based historian and Clinton supporter.
“She and other people who have gone online to defend Hillary and explain – just explain – why they supported her have been subject to vicious trolling and attacks that are literally too profane often – not to mention sexist – to repeat”, Clinton said. She remembers the headband Clinton was wearing when they first met in 1992 – “a galaxy far, far away”. Campaign manager Robby Mook said, “We were particularly surprised….to see him break that pledge”. “Time and time again, by innuendo, by insinuation, there is this attack that he is putting forth”, she said.
Former two-term president Bill Clinton took to his wife’s defense, pointing out that Sanders benefited from big banks too. A single digit loss would allow Clinton to use the same comeback narrative that Bernie Sanders employed after his near loss in Iowa. “And they raised a million dollars!”
Clinton could still perform more strongly than anticipated in New Hampshire due to the structure of the state’s primaries, which, unlike in many other states, allow independents to participate in either the Democratic or Republican contests.
