Hillary Clinton’s former campaign manager slammed her one-time boss and warned Democrats they need to distance themselves from her after recent comments insulting millions of Americans as racists and misogynists.

Patti Solis Doyle, who initially ran Clinton’s failed presidential campaign in 2008, took umbrage with the notion that Trump won in 2016 thanks to “backward” supporters.

“I won the places that are optimistic, diverse, dynamic, moving forward, and his whole campaign ‘Make America Great Again’ was looking backwards,” Clinton said during an interview in India. “You know, you didn’t like black people getting rights, you don’t like women getting jobs, you don’t want to see that Indian-American succeeding more than you are — whatever your problem is, I’m going to solve it.”

The bitterness and contempt toward Americans are just dripping from that video clip.

“Look, this, this was bad,” Doyle charged. “I can’t sugarcoat it. She was wrong, and clearly it’s not helpful to Democrats going into the midterms, and certainly not going into 2020.”

She urged Democrats to run for the hills and away from anything associated with Clinton and her views that conservatives are racist women-haters.

“She’s put herself in a position where Democrats are going to have to distance themselves from these remarks and distance themselves from her,” Doyle continued, “particularly those Democrats that are running in states that Donald Trump won like Ohio and Pennsylvania and Wisconsin and Michigan.”

Democrats will have to distance themselves from Hillary? Where have we heard that before?

Ah yes … a former fundraiser for the Democrat candidate said in September that the “best thing she could do is disappear.”

“Honestly, I wish she’d just shut the f— up and go away,” the fundraiser concluded.

Don’t we all?

Doyle’s stance against Hillary, whom she still considers a “friend,” isn’t the first. Earlier this year she outed Clinton for nixing plans to fire a senior adviser accused of sexual harassment on her 2008 campaign.

Do you agree with Hillary’s former campaign manager that the Democrat’s comments insulting millions of Americans were out of line? Tell us what you think below!
