Bernie Sanders’s attacks on his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton are shifting from qualifications for president to her judgment.

“She may have the experience to be president of the United States. No one can argue that,” Sanders said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “But in terms of her judgment, something is clearly lacking.”


And on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Sanders said: “I have my doubts about what kind of president she would make.”

Sanders’ comments on the former secretary of state’s judgment came after he created a firestorm this past week when he stated that Clinton was not qualified to be president. On Friday, Sanders reversed himself and said “of course” Clinton was qualified.

But on NBC, Sanders said the point he was trying to make still stood, that Clinton is getting money from Wall Street, voted for the Iraq War in 2003 and backed free trade agreements.

“When you have a super PAC that is raising tens of millions of dollars from every special interest out there, including $15 million from Wall Street, the American people do not believe that that is the kind of president that we need to make the changes in America to protect the working families of this country,” Sanders said.

The Vermont Independent brushed aside criticism — from former President Bill Clinton and other Clinton backers — that Sanders called Clinton unqualified in part because she was a woman.

“I appreciate Bill being my psychoanalyst,” Sanders said.
