Former President Obama said Sunday that Republicans could field a football team with all the indictments against members of their party.
"They promised they were going to take on corruption in Washington," Obama said while campaigning at a rally in Indiana for Sen. Joe Donnelly (D-Ind.), CNN reports.
"Instead, they've racked up enough indictments to field a football team," he said.
"Nobody in my administration got indicted," Obama added. "Which, by the way, is not that high a bar."
Democrats have made corruption in Washington a part of their closing message, pointing to the indictments of two GOP lawmakers and special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation.
Mueller has won indictments or gotten guilty pleas from 32 people, including Paul Manafort, the onetime chairman of President Trump's campaign, and former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
