Clinton Calls Trump a ‘Creep’ for Debate Behavior in Election Memoir
The Washingon Free Beacon ^ | 08/23/17 | David Rutz

Posted on 08/23/2017 6:00:32 AM PDT by Enlightened1

Hillary Clinton refers to Donald Trump as a "creep" and says her "skin crawled" during one of their debates in an except from her upcoming 2016 election memoir What Happened.

In their town hall-style debate on Oct. 9 where the candidates were allowed to walk around the stage, Trump at various points walked behind Clinton as she spoke. MSNBC aired her narration of that section of the book Tuesday morning, where Clinton recounted her thoughts that she was "incredibly uncomfortable."

"This is not ok, I thought," she wrote. "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.

Trump was "literally breathing down my neck. My skin crawled," she wrote.

Clinton said she wished in the moment she could hit "pause" and ask people watching what they would do.

"Do you stay calm, keep smiling and carry on as if he weren't repeatedly invading your space? Or do you turn, look him in the eye and say loudly and clearly, ‘Back up, you creep. Get away from me. I know you love to intimidate women, but you can't intimidate me, so back up,'" she wrote.

She said she chose to stay calm, "aided by a lifetime of dealing with difficult men trying to throw me off."

Clinton wrote that, with the book, she wants to "pull back the curtain on an experience that was exhilarating, joyful, humbling, infuriating and just plain baffling."

"Writing this wasn't easy. Every day that I was a candidate for president...

“What Happened....” What a stupid title! Here is Hillary coming down from on high and telling her so-called “fans” all the so-called “facts.” A better title needs a question mark at the end because from the looks of this excerpt she is still very deranged and very confused. Just when you think they can’t go any lower! Poisonous vermin! Just go away! I’m so thankful things turned out the way they did!

No, Hillary could not handle Kim Jong-un.

Of course, if she operated by the clinton-obama playbook, she would have let the Nork creep test and perfect his nuclear arsenal without doing anything. Then we’d be in REAL trouble!!!!

Given this excerpt, it makes us ALL glad this modern version of the Biblical Jezebel didn't get elected President.

Keep it up, DIMS.

I want Hilliary, Mad Maxine, and Pelousy as the public/media faces of the DemonRAT party for as long as possible.

Throw race-baiting tax cheat Al Sharpton into the mix, as well.

This is coming from a skank who is married to admitted rapist and defended child rapist that she knew was guilty.

Hillary is VERY GOOD at scamming the system. She had a chance to be the most corrupt, traitorous President ever. Hillary was even likely to drown out Hussein in the push to be the worse President ever.

“What Happened....” What a stupid title!

The book's real title, in the eyes of many: What the !#@$ Happened?

And I'm probably not kidding. Hillary had ALL the advantages of support from the MSM, the Hollywood Left, Wall Street money managers and technology companies and still lost. What finally killed her campaign was her stupid remark of calling Trump supporters a "basket of deplorables," a huge no-no in the eyes of many political campaign managers.

She actually left her podium and walked right in front of Turmp’s if I remember correctly. He was just behind her, but it was because of her movement and not his.

It was a small stage and she/it was taking up most of it?

I remember that debate. Wasn't it the nasty bi#ch that walked in front of him on his side of the stage?

Next day, she claimed he was trying to intimidate her?

What section of the electorate is Hillary appealing to with this kind of cheap shot language? Thank God that she and her brain dead camp followers never made it into the White House where they could preside over the total dismantling of our democracy.

Why doesn’t Trump get busy on locking her up? She has committed so many crimes-what’s he afraid of?

CNN just played the audio book recording of her saying these words, juxtaposed with the actual video from the debate. Of course, they took her at her word, while the video shows he was never more than 4-5 feet from her, and he was simply returning to and standing at his lectern during her answer. It only appears that he is standing behind her if you look at one specific camera angle, which of course is the only angle CNN showed.

For the “smartest woman in the world” to abuse the word “literally” like that, saying he was “literally breathing down my neck”, only shows a shocking lack of understanding of the English language, and is really just another example of the nonstop string of damnable lies that have defined her public life.
