        "You don't have anybody to vote for who didn't have anything to do with this," says Bill of the crime bill, noting that Bernie voted for it.

        And Bernie rightly addressed bad parts of that bill in '94 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTn3jUoMdVI … In '96 HRC still used coded talk "superpredator"

        He could be defending the most horrible thing and the (tiny, tiny) room of Clinton supporters would lap it up just b/c he said it.

        She literally links to his campaign site. You can ignore it or you can accept it. It won't change fact.
