Bill Clinton Rips 'Awful Legacy of the Last Eight Years' of Obama Presidency

March 21, 2016

Former President Bill Clinton, perhaps unwittingly, trashed the Obama administration when he said people should vote for his wife in order to "put the awful legacy of the last eight years behind us" during a speech in Spokane, Washington, on Monday.

"If you believe we can all rise together, if you believe we've finally come to the point where we can put the awful legacy of the last eight years behind us and the seven years before that when we were practicing trickle-down economics and no regulation in Washington, which is what caused the crash, then you should vote for her," Clinton said.

Clinton, stumping for his wife and Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton, seemed to realize his slip mid-sentence as he also hit the George W. Bush years.
