The disunity in the Democratic Party will linger long. A recent book by Hilary Clinton shows there is still disunity.
In her new book, Clinton blamed Sanders for her losing the Election. Bernie Sanders ridiculed Hilary Clinton during the Democratic race for the Presidency.
Supporters for both persons showed how tense the battle was. The intensity was visible during the final debate in Brooklyn.
The two differed on many things despite being of the same Party. Hilary threw punches as well, the last debate was considered even.
Clinton is considered more liberal. Sanders is believed to be more like Ted Kennedy. Clinton thinks change is inevitable to survive in the political arena.
Bernie Sanders was big on the economy and politics in general. He talked about how Clinton handled foreign policy.
He didn’t go dirty, just facts about handling some issues. Clinton believes all of these facts helped in losing to Donald Trump.
Clinton’s Comments
“His attacks caused lasting damage, making it harder to unify progressives in the general election. Paving the way for Trump’s ‘Crooked Hillary’ campaign.” She said.
She even wondered if what was done bothered Sanders in any way.
Clinton said “he certainly shared my horror at the thought of Donald Trump becoming president.” She was thankful for his support. Clinton made it clear that Sander isn’t a Democrat, but an Independent.
Anyone who read the book would clearly see the remorse for Sanders. She said “he didn’t get into the race to make sure a Democrat won the White House. He got in to disrupt the Democratic Party.”
Are these claims true though? Sanders has been busy with a bill that is very similar to Obama care. He is considered a Democrat by some, he affiliates with them.
Her book certainly puts the blame squarely on Sanders.
