Clinton, Sanders tangle on economy in Democratic debate
Clinton accused him of turning his back on the auto industry and Sanders countered in the Sunday night debate that Clinton's friends on Wall Street had "destroyed this economy."
Sanders chimed in, "We are, if elected president, going to invest a lot of money into mental health and when you watch these Republican debates you know why."
Sanders countered that the money for the auto industry was part of a larger bailout package for Wall Street, adding, "I will be damned if it was the working people of this country who have to bail out the crooks on Wall Street."
Ultimately, President George W. Bush and Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson agreed to provide $23.4 billion for the auto industry from the federal bailout money for the financial sector.
The debate started on a conciliatory note, with Clinton joining Sanders in calling for Michigan's Republican governor to resign over his handling of the Flint water crisis.
In the race for the Democratic nomination, Clinton has at least 1,130 delegates to Sanders' 499, including superdelegates — members of Congress, governors and party officials who can support the candidate of their choice.
