Hillary Spox Tears Into Sanders for ‘Unqualified’ Attack: ‘New Low’

Bernie Sanders tonight attacked Hillary Clinton and called her unqualified, leading to a pretty stern rebuttal from Clinton’s campaign press secretary.

Sanders was hitting back at Clinton for supposedly calling him unqualified first, but she actually didn’t. She was specifically asked to say so multiple times, but refused (though she was still pretty critical of him).

Clinton press secretary Brian Fallon tore into Sanders on Twitter in response:

Hillary Clinton did not say Bernie Sanders was 'not qualified.' But he has now – absurdly – said it about her. This is a new low.

Facing long odds, Sanders is inventing grievances & nonexistent paths to the nomination to rile his supporters & keep fundraising spigot on

Bernie Sanders, take back your words about Hillary Clinton.

Yow.
