Bachmann Compares Obama To Pilot Who Downed Germanwings Airliner

Former Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) compared President Barack Obama to Andreas Lubitz, the pilot who downed the Germanwings airliner that crashed in the French Alps last week.

All 150 people on board the Germanwings flight died in the crash, including 144 passengers and six crew members.
