Did Hillary say Bernie isn't qualified?

When I listened to Morning Coffee this morning I heard her say exactly that.

This evening, when the interview was repeated several times, I realized that, no, she hadn't said that. She had said some other stuff -- that maybe implied -- or maybe not -- Damn, I was wrong.

She's GOOD. She's artful. She's devious and calculating and very articulate.

But everybody knows that. And that's a major reason many Democrats would prefer another nominee. (My wife, for example, who describes herself as a knee-jerk liberal.)

How smart is it, REALLY, to reinforce the impression of Hillary as an artful, articulate, and devious politician?

She used double messages to 'suggest' something without directly 'stating' something.

It is also a form of gaslighting.

I didn't see it ...

What I saw was 'Hillary questioned whether Bernie was qualified to be President.'

What is the truth?
