Hillary Clinton’s press secretary Brian Fallon was in full-on spin mode last night for the debate, which we’d expect, but one tweet was just a little too over the top for former adviser to President Obama David Axelrod.
Here’s what Fallon said about Clinton:
This is the woman you want in your foxhole. #ImWithHer #DemTownHall
— Brian Fallon (@brianefallon) January 26, 2016
And Axelrod’s mocking reply:
In breaking news, @HillaryClinton wins full-throated endorsement from her press secretary. https://t.co/u0OepkCRHm
— David Axelrod (@davidaxelrod) January 26, 2016
Trouble in liberal land, guys?
The two kept at it:
.@davidaxelrod As a guardian of the @POTUS legacy, we know you are rooting for @HillaryClinton, too. You just play a contrarian on TV!
— Brian Fallon (@brianefallon) January 26, 2016
@brianefallon @POTUS @HillaryClinton Just playing it straight, brother! But all kidding aside, she's lucky to have you. You do a great job.
— David Axelrod (@davidaxelrod) January 26, 2016
But is Hillary really the one you want in the proverbial fox hole during a battle?
Yes, a woman who can't print her own documents or make a cup of tea. https://t.co/pWenefraeT

“HUMA, GET ME A HAND GRENADE AND TEACH ME HOW TO PULL THE PIN!”
More mocking:
Not the woman you want when you're on a rooftop in Benghazi, however. https://t.co/Ve4zGNwb5Q

Maybe Axelrod is feeling the Bern, too?
