On Friday, Hillary for America chair John Podesta released a statement responding to Donald Trump’s hiring of Citizens United President David Bossie. Bossie recently joined the Trump campaign and will reportedly be working on campaign strategy. Podesta’s response is below.

“David Bossie is so craven and maniacal that in the heyday of the overreaching, Gingrich-era Congress, the top Whitewater conspiracy theorist in the House had to fire him for doctoring evidence. He has devoted his career ever since to trying to tear down Hillary Clinton. For months now, Citizens United has been acting as an arm of the Trump campaign, and this hiring of Bossie now makes it official. This is just the latest sign that Donald Trump has put the most extreme elements of the right-wing fringe in the driver’s seat of his campaign.”
