Showing Original Post only (View all)Dem lawmaker on Clinton criticizing Sanders in new book: 'Don't go there' [View all]
BY REBECCA SAVRANSKY - 09/06/17 07:42 AM EDT
Rep. Jared Huffman (D-Calif.) is pushing back against Hillary Clinton's comments blaming Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) for "paving the way" for President Trump's attack against her as "Crooked Hillary."
"Please Hillary, don't go there," Huffman tweeted.
"I supported you. Bernie showed restraint & class & ran aspirational campaign. Politics is rough sometimes."
