A Hillary Clinton spokesman slammed South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg on Friday for comments he made in January about Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign.
Buttigieg, who is weighing a 2020 bid, said in an interview with The Washington Post Magazine published in January,"Donald Trump got elected because, in his twisted way, he pointed out the huge troubles in our economy and our democracy." He added,"At least he didn't go around saying that America was already great, like Hillary did." "America is already great. America is already strong & I promise you, our strength, our greatness, does not depend on Donald Trump.
— Hillary Clinton July 28, 2016 Nick Merrill, a Clinton adviser and spokesman, called Buttigieg's months-old comments"indefensible." "This is indefensible. @HillaryClinton ran on a belief in this country & the most progressive platform in modern political history. Trump ran on pessimism, racism, false promises, & vitriol. Interpret that how you want, but there are 66,000,000 people who disagree. Good luck," Merrill posted on Twitter.
