New low: Trump to rake up Bill Clinton’s sex scandals

Washington, October 1

Donald Trump indicated in a new interview that he’s ready to drag former President Bill Clinton’s sex scandals into the White House campaign, after Democrats lashed out at the billionaire's Twitter rant against a pro-Hillary ex-Miss Universe.

Trump told The New York Times that he believes talking about the sex scandals that stained the career of Hillary’s husband would turn female voters away from her.

“She’s nasty, but I can be nastier than she ever can be,” Trump told the Times in an interview yesterday.

He added: “Hillary Clinton was married to the single greatest abuser of women in the history of politics,” referring to Bill Clinton (president 1993-2001).

Hillary was an enabler, and she attacked the women who Bill Clinton mistreated afterward. I think it's a serious problem for them, and it's something that I'm considering talking about more in the near future," he told the newspaper.

In an apparent effort to pre-empt the attacks, the Clinton campaign released audio of Bill Clinton talking about his marriage with Hillary.

“I think that she has literally spent a lifetime dealing with not only her joys and her blessings, but also heartbreaks and disappointment, and sometimes unfair treatment,” a reflective Bill says.

Trump once again attacked former Miss Universe Alicia Machado on Twitter, and urged his followers to “check out (her) sex tape and past”. “Did Crooked Hillary help disgusting (check out sex tape and past) Alicia M become a US citizen so she could use her in the debate?” said Trump, in one of of virulent tweets. — AFP
