Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders responded Wednesday to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s attempts to blame him for her loss in the 2016 presidential election by telling Clinton to “look forward.”
Sanders said it was time to stop looking backward when asked about Clinton’s new book at a Democratic press conference on DACA, reports the Hill.
“My response is that right now it’s appropriate to look forward and not backward,” Sander said to The Hill. “I’m working overtime now to see we overturn Trump’s decision on DACA, pass a $15-an-hour minimum wage, and next week I’ll be offering a Medicare-for-all single-payer system.”
Clinton’s book “What Happened,” set to be released Sept. 12, seeks to look back at what caused her stunning loss in presidential race. Clinton in part blames Sanders for her loss, claiming that his attacks against her may have helped create President Donald Trump’s ‘Crooked Hillary’ campaign slogan
“His attacks caused lasting damage, making it harder to unify progressives in the general election,” Clinton wrote.
Clinton also claimed that Sanders hurt her campaign by taking her ideas and making them grander to appeal to liberal voters.
I'll tale political has-been's for $100 Alex!
Hey Hillary, you still haven't blamed me yet, but feel free. No Hillary, you cheated him along with Washerwoman Shultz, who lost her job because of it and you. Don't forget Donna Brazile nut and the debate questions. Sorry Hill, it was the obvious collusion and democratic party fraud against Bernie that caused Bernie voters to either not vote in the general election or vote for Trump. Got to love liberal political cannibalism. She eats him, he eats her? Hillary is dead politically. But Boiney may give it another shot since Hillary won't be running. Let's see, Boiney says “I’m working overtime now to see we overturn Trump’s decision on DACA, pass a $15-an-hour minimum wage, and next week I’ll be offering a Medicare-for-all single-payer system.” Good luck with that Bern. First, how does a man who's never worked a day in his life define "working overtime"? He works three hour days instead of two? And second, in your time in congress Boiney, you have sponsored three bills that became law, although two of those simply renamed post offices. Try running for President of Mexico Boiney. I hear President Trump's approval rating is at 0% in Mexico so you might have a shot.
