In 2008, Trump Dismissed Clinton Sex Scandal as ‘Totally Unimportant’
Mediaite ^ | December 28, 2015 | Josh Feldman

Considering how tough Donald Trump is talking about Bill Clinton's sex scandals now, it might surprise you (or not, because honestly, how many things has he suddenly changed his mind on at this point) to learn that The Donald didn't always feel this way.

Just to review, in the past week, Trump has tweeted out a lot about the former president, saying that it's not him that has a "penchant for sexism," it's Clinton.

Trump has tweeted about Clinton's "terrible record of women abuse" and sent a warning-like "BE CAREFUL!" to Hillary Clinton for calling him a sexist....

what a disaster. Cheney is not the man I thought he was either.

He didn’t know about the divide among shia/sunni/kurd.

I didn’t. I didn’t have to. I wasn’t pres or VP or advisor or Sec of State or Sec of Defense and on and on.

what an unmitigated disaster.

the worst part is he was replaced by a REAL one world pro muslim pro gay pro no US animal in Obama

So, because Trump doesn’t have a political record to run on, we should ignore everything Trump has said or done in the past? You can’t be serious.

Actually, I think the things Trump said when he didn’t have a political motive are critical, because they reflect what he truly believed (and still probably believes).

Don’t you want Trump to rough up the Clintons in a way Cruz does not
have to do?

You die hard Trump haters are so blinded by your hate for Trump
that you cannot see some of the benefits he can provide, even if he is not
the eventual nominee. You are so blinded by hate.

Roughing up the Clintons is a good thing, no matter who the eventual
nominee is. Cruz loses nothing if Trump roughs up or softens the Clintons.

"Have absolutely NOTHING "positive" to post about your candidate? LOL"

Well, you were posting plenty of negative things about Trump in 2011...stuff about his disgusting lifestyle, how he was worse than Obama, etc.

Now he's the George Washington for our time, LOL.

I don’t hate anyone. I just happen to believe that Trump’s duplicity will be his undoing.

I just had a thread I created about Trump calling Malkin a dummy who was born stupid pulled. I was from Free Republic in 2013.

I heard the audio. He was clear and forceful. What made him change his mind?

Hillary running for President on a War On Women might have something to do with it.

Context ain't just a river in Egypt. Try it sometime.

>>>I heard the audio. He was clear and forceful. What made him change his mind?<<<

At first blush I would say Hillary's attack on him as a Misogynist. She has no room to talk being Married to Billy Boy.

She stepped on a Land Mine with that comment about Trump and she will pay dearly for it.

No big deal to him back then could be a big deal to others right now.

You go to War with the Army you have, very simple...

Absolutely. He supported Obama's bailouts and the stimulus; he supported the anti-gun liberals' "assault weapons ban"; he said he was in favor of "single-payer socialized healthcare like they have in Canada". It is this that tells us who Trump really is, not what he may be saying while trying to get the conservative vote.

John F’in Kerry - “I was for it before I was against it” = Flip flopper

The Donald - “I was for it before I was against it” = Enlightened

Ted Cruz will almost certainly win Iowa, Nevada and place well in New Hampshire and win a fair share of the SEC primaries. When that happens, lets meet back here to talk.

Not really defending but that was 2008. In 2008, I had better hair, more disposable income and thought Twitter was a girl band.

One could ponder the same about Hillary, saying that woman have the right to be heard and believed about, you know, the kind of things Bill is known for.

It's unimportant.

Really? Bill Clinton being a rapist, and his wife enabling him by viciously attacking the victims isn't important given Hillary! is making the alleged war on women a central theme of her campaign?

You apologists are a little too much some times.....

Too bad Hillary poked that hornet’s nest by playing the woman card on Trump. Now she’s getting stung. He really didn’t care. But he’s not going to stand there and have her pull that Marxist/feminist crap and get away with it.
