Bill Clinton calls Sanders attacks vs. Hillary “sexist”
Bill Clinton launched a sustained attack on Bernie Sanders at a New Hampshire campaign rally Sunday, tearing into the senator’s rhetoric against Hillary Clinton and picking apart his spending plans.
Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders and his campaign are asking zealous supporters known as “BernieBros” to stop the lewd, online criticism of journalists, Hillary Clinton backers and others critical of his political views.
In Dover on Wednesday, Clinton reprised a line from her 2008 concession speech – that she is trying to break the “hardest, highest glass ceiling”.
Clinton’s Tennessee press secretary Holly McCall, recently added by the campaign, said that the Clinton team has also hired a state field coordinator, as well as a field organizer in Memphis, to focus on outreach efforts.
Clinton has pledged to fight for every vote in New Hampshire, but at least some of her operation is moving on. The chair of the Michigan Republican Party, Ronna Romney McDaniel, accused Clinton with using Flint families as political pawns and said the visit was a calculated campaign tactic an attempt to grab headlines by a struggling campaign.Clinton narrowly beat Sanders in Iowas leadoff caucuses last Monday but has trailed the Vermont senator in New Hampshire by large margins.
“Have pro-Clinton journalists and pundits been subjected to some vile, abusive, and misogynistic rhetoric from random, anonymous internet supporters of Sanders who are angry over their Clinton support?” “I’m at the age in my life where I want to do more than just feel good, I want to do good”.
“We’re going to have more places than that”, said Ryan Hughes, state director for Sanders’ Michigan campaign.
“For those of you who are still shopping, I hope I can close the deal”, she said. “They’re committed to doing the best we can”, she continued.
When put against Republican front-runner Donald Trump, Clinton held a 5-percent lead over the billionaire at 45 percent and 40 percent respectively. But just 11 percent of women and men aged 17 to 24 and 17 percent of those aged 25 to 29 caucused for her, according to an NBC News exit poll. Joe Kennedy III, D-Brookline, Katherine Clark, D-Melrose, also traveled to New Hampshire to canvass for Clinton in the final weekend before the first-in-the-nation primary. Appearing on “Real Time with Bill Maher” on Friday, Steinem insinuated that young women favored Sanders because “the boys are with Bernie”.
“Sexism. It still exists”.
“I want to give him a shot”, said Nick Ayoub, 22, of Cambridge, Massachusetts.
“You know what? I’ll make it easier for you”, Clinton told the young girl.
