Hillary Clinton called Sen. Bernie Sanders’s presidential campaign a load of “baloney” on Super Tuesday.
The former secretary of state criticized her 2016 rival during an appearance on ABC’s Good Morning America to promote her new documentary series.
Linsey Davis, the interviewer, asked Clinton to respond to Sanders’s call for the candidate who arrives at the Democratic National Convention with a plurality of delegates to be given the nomination.
In asking for a reaction, Davis noted the senator’s stance has changed “quite a bit” from 2016, eliciting a laugh from Clinton.

“My reaction is, let’s follow the rules. We’ve got rules. We had rules last time, and we have rules this time. I think it’s always a good idea to follow the rules,” said Clinton, who beat Sanders out for the nomination in 2016.
The interviewer referenced the documentary in which Clinton called Sanders’s 2016 presidential campaign “just baloney” and that she felt “so bad people got sucked into it.” Davis asked if she stands by the comments.
“Sure, yeah,” Clinton said. “That was my authentic opinion then. It’s my authentic opinion now.”
Clinton has so far declined to endorse any of the remaining presidential candidates in the 2020 race.
