The email was sent from liberal columnist and former Congressional staffer Brent Budowsky to Hillary Clinton’s campaign manager, John Podesta, several months before Donald Trump official clinched the GOP nomination. He was worried that any other GOP candidate, “even a clown like Ted Cruz,” would have a decent shot at beating Hillary in a general election.
Budowksy also suggested that Hillary stop her attacks on Bernie Sanders, her opponent in the Democratic primary, and stop saying “things that are untrue, which candidly she often does.”
