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. ..."

I hear that is a side effect of detox. She probably needed a drink.

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

This hag never had a man after her except Bill in college but he’d hose a snake if someone would hold it for him,

I love the look on the reporters face. After the video came out, I tried shaking my head like that, and it actually hurts, and is not a pleasant experience, but then I guess that’s because I still have a brain.

"I have never considered Bill Clinton charming or attractive."

Ditto, I could never understand what women saw in him.

“he’d (Bill) hose a snake if someone would hold it for him,”

Well, we know he hosed a snake at least once, assuming Chelsea is his spawn.

want to be this was focus grouped ESPECIALLY the word creep.

She is trying to maintain relevance she thought she would have at a presidential level. She does not care if she burns the democrat, uniparty, or all DC with her.

What was really creepy was watching her get thrown into a van on 9/11/16.

Then her body double appeared in front of Chelsea’s building looking like a million dollars.

Made my skin crawl.

She’s just mad at herself for not creating another Lazio moment. Maybe she calculated it was a risk not worth taking at the time since she thought Trump had been done in by the Access Hollywood tape.
