Hillary Clinton calls Donald Trump a ‘creep,’ says her ‘skin crawled’ during debate
Washington Post ^ | 8-23-17 | Cleve R. Wootson Jr. and Amy B Wang

Hillary Clinton said her “skin crawled” as Donald Trump loomed behind her at a presidential debate in St. Louis, and added that she wished she could have pressed pause and asked America, “Well, what would you do?”

The words, Clinton’s most detailed public comments about what happened during one of the campaign’s more memorable moments, are included in her new book, “What Happened,” which she called an attempt to “pull back the curtain” on her losing bid for the presidency.

Some of the moments during the campaign, she said, “baffled” her. Others seemingly repulsed her: In recounting the October incident, she referred to Trump as a “creep.”

The book comes out Sept. 12, but audio excerpts, read by Clinton, were played Wednesday morning on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”

In the recording, Clinton noted that she wrote about moments from the campaign that she wanted to remember forever — as well as others she wished she could “go back and do over.”

The moment from the debate appeared to fall into the latter category.

“This is not okay, I thought,” Clinton said, reading from her book. “It was the second presidential debate and Donald Trump was looming behind me. Two days before, the world heard him brag about groping women. Now we were on a small stage and no matter where I walked, he followed me closely, staring at me, making faces.

“It was incredibly uncomfortable. He was literally breathing down my neck. My skin crawled. ..."

ROFLOL! In her dreams, if she thinks Donald Trump would grope her! She is such a scam artist. I wonder how long it took her to come up with this excuse?

Good grief, Hillary; the man isn’t frickin’ BLIND. You have wet dreams that he might grope YOU? That’s hilarious.

She’s getting mixed up. I’m betting some of her perv husband’s victims said those words. I’m sure if I searched, I could find all these same words.

As suggested by a fellow Freeper the book should have been called:

"Close, but No Cigar"

Hillary must've been confused again. She likely forgot she was starting to shed her skin, as all snakes do.

You know what makes my skin crawl? Thinking of Hillary in the oval office.

My skin crawled every time she opened her mouth during the debates. She is one creepy lady!

She is one to talk about making "skin creep". Thinking of this in the WH made my skin creep daily.

“Her skin crawled”? Then I suggest she should have seen a competent veterinarian, to be treated for mange.

She’s obsessed with sexual innuendo from her ‘bent’ hubby years. No self-respecting woman would have tolerated his infidelity, but she rode his coattails of power and politics.

I have never considered Bill Clinton charming or attractive - he is a slimy reprobate. Ask all of the women who were his victims.

I always liked the title, “Crouching Intern, Hidden Cigar”. A FReeper came up with that one decades ago; never forgot it. :)

Kinda like the pervert husband of hers and the pervert husband of her most trusted aide. The best election ever produced the best results, Hillary has to live with her stunning defeat - how sweet it is.

If Trump creeped her out so much, think of what other world leaders would have done to her. I guess she wasn’t as tough as she thought.
