We never thought the day would come when a Minnesotan did it better.
Former U.S. congresswoman and Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann, who hails from Minnesota, took to Twitter Friday to instruct Hillary Clinton in how one properly swipes a MetroCard.
The Democratic presidential hopeful and former U.S. senator from New York swiped her card about five times before getting through a subway turnstile in the Bronx Thursday morning.
“I know you had a tough time, Hillary, trying to figure out how to do the subway system even though you were the U.S. senator from New York,” Bachmann says in her sassy Twitter video, captured in a Crown Heights subway station (likely the President Street stop on the 2/5 lines).
The onetime public figure then swipes her card — “just that easy, just that quick" — and pushes through the turnstile.
Note the police officer standing behind Bachmann and walking out the frame, as if trying to avoid any involvement in this brewing fight. Smart man.
