Former Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chretien did not seem impressed by Donald Trump’s campaign in a Wednesday interview, dissing the Republican nominee’s intelligence.

“When Hillary had pneumonia, there are pills to help you against pneumonia, but apparently there is no pill against something like stupidity,” he said in an interview at a fundraiser for St. Francis Xavier University when asked about Trump’s campaign.

“I find it unbelievable. It’s taking away the dignity of public life,” Chretien added.
