Bill Clinton suggested Friday that Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” campaign slogan is a racial dog whistle intended to appeal to white Southerners, an interesting charge considering the former president once campaigned with the exact same slogan.

“One candidate says, ‘I’ll make America great again,'” Clinton said at a campaign stop in Pittsburgh. “Hey, folks. I’m a white southerner. I know exactly what that means.”
