Bill Clin­ton in Michi­gan: ‘Econ­o­my Was Bet­ter’ Under Don­ald Trump, But You Should Still Vote for Kamala Har­ris

<div>Bill Clinton in Michigan: 'Economy Was Better' Under Donald Trump, But You Should Still Vote for Kamala Harris</div>

For­mer Pres­i­dent Bill Clin­ton said the “econ­o­my was bet­ter” under for­mer Pres­i­dent Don­ald Trump dur­ing a ral­ly for Vice Pres­i­dent Kamala Har­ris in Muskegon Heights, Michi­gan, adding that peo­ple should still vote for Har­ris.

“I don’t think it’s right to say that peo­ple have to vote for Don­ald Trump because the econ­o­my was bet­ter then,” Clin­ton said in what ral­ly­go­ers seem­ing­ly per­ceived as a pro-Trump slip, as the 42nd president’s remark elicit­ed groans from the audi­ence.

But Clin­ton stressed that peo­ple should still vote for Har­ris, even though the econ­o­my was bet­ter under Trump.

Clin­ton also said, “I think I’m enti­tled to my opin­ion about who would be bet­ter” because he used to be pres­i­dent, and he thinks he “did pret­ty well.”

Notably, Clin­ton made a sim­i­lar­ly appar­ent anti-Har­ris slip a few weeks ago, when he said that Lak­en Riley’s death “prob­a­bly wouldn’t have hap­pened” if the Biden-Har­ris admin­is­tra­tion had “prop­er­ly vet­ted” her accused ille­gal migrant mur­der­er.

The for­mer president’s com­ment fur­ther ties Har­ris to the administration’s bor­der poli­cies. Since 2021, the Biden-Har­ris admin­is­tra­tion reversed or undid many of the Trump-era bor­der poli­cies. In one exam­ple, the Biden-Har­ris admin­is­tra­tion sus­pend­ed the Remain in Mex­i­co pol­i­cy on their first day in office.

Riley was a 22-year-old Augus­ta Uni­ver­si­ty nurs­ing stu­dent who was alleged­ly killed this year by an ille­gal migrant who was released into the Unit­ed States.
