Trump ‘Attacking Bill Clinton’ Exasperates NBC’s Andrea Mitchell

You could hear it in her voice. Hosting Meet the Press on Sunday, NBC's Andrea Mitchell was clearly exasperated by Donald Trump daring to warn Hillary Clinton he would raise Bill Clinton's "penchant for sexism" if he campaigns for her. Mitchell was so annoyed by it that she brought it up during three segments. -

First, with Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, she let out a loud sigh in highlighting Trump "attacking" Bill Clinton: "Are we going to get into an argument not only of sexism between Donald Trump and Bill Clinton but, eh, Donald Trump attacking Bill Clinton?"

Second, with Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Chair of the Democratic National Committee, Mitchell raised her voice on the name "Bill Clinton" as she cited "this new attack" that Trump "has unleashed on Twitter against Bill Clinton campaigning for Hillary Clinton more actively in January?"

Third, an incensed Mitchell set up a panel segment: "What about Donald Trump? Going after Hillary Clinton, going after Bill Clinton? Does this work for him?"

That was on the Carol Burnett Show with Harvey Korman.

Maybe someone can find it on youtube.

If I were Trump, I would show pictures of the women in his life and then show the women in Bill’s life to question Bill’s judgement.... Hillary.. Monica... Janet Reno.... and his favorite female reporter from AP... Helen Thomas.. (No pics please)

The press bypasses it at any cost. It totally destroys their credibility with women which leaves them with precious little so the press is reluctant to see it air.

Quibble.

The Vagina Vote will always go for William the Impeached. He could be videotaped in flagrante delicto and vagina voters would queue up to service him. Remember the Leftist reporterette from Florida back during the impeachment, who offered to service him on the air? She wasn't alone in thinking that way (if that can be called thinking).

Five years ago, I spoke with one of these wymyn who had met Bill up close. She went all gooey and starry-eyed as she described how he made her feel like the most important person in the room for a few moments.

Obama tapped into that hormone in 2008, which is why so many vagina voters thought he was sooooooooo dreamy.

This is how the majority of wymyn think and vote, and they will not change.

Anywhere Bill goes, women should wear blue dresses, and bring a black beret to put on.

“Bill, it’s me! Why don’t you call?”

She’s exasperated because deep down, she realizes Trump is right. The youngest person to ever have actually voted for Sweet Old Bill (I’ll use the initials from now on) is in the mid forties now. To anyone younger, the SOB is just a wrinkled old goat (sort of like Mitchell). The “magic” she thinks the old SOB had is gone. It was nothing but kneepad media attention people like her gave him, anyway.

Here’s the big problem I have with Trump’s attack on Bill Clinton: he attacks Bill for sexism. He should be attacking Bill for misogyny. Including use of the word “rape.”

To paraphrase what the left has been saying, how can Hillary sit across the table from Putin and other leaders when she can’t even handle Donald Trump?

Bill Clinton has the ability to deliver the black vote for Hillary, which is needed for her to have any chance of beating Trump (it won’t be enough, but she still has to try).

So Trump is cutting her off at the pass. This is a BRILLIANT CAMPAIGN, playing out WAY BEYOND the political capabilities of any Republican since Reagan.

She brought up the sexism attack and now he is going to point out her attacks on Bill’s bimbos. They cannot fight Trump.

Pray America wakes

Well of course it makes Andrea exasperated. Her leftist icon rapist and his wifely enabler are untouchable!

The media was a participant in, not the critic of, sexist attacks on Sarah Palin in 2008. Screw these Stalinist scumbags. Orwell had their number. Each day is the first day of history in their book.

“What will Trump do when they start bringing up his infidelities?”

Start bringing Juanita into campaign appearances (i.e., hit back 10 times harder).

Andrea is getting the vapors. I bet Rush will be talking about this if he is on today.

They’ve be playing reruns of Carol Burnett on my local station. How refreshing to actually see real entertainers on TV

Trump is not the poster child for marital fidelity himself so I think Clinton would welcome this tactic. Trump can't bring up anything that hasn't been brought up before. It makes Hillary look like the injured party and that may increase Trump's already high negatives among women. It opens Trump up to counter stories about his own infidelities, which he isn't going to be able to leave alone. And time spent on this is time not spent attacking Hillary's record and positions. You can say that Trump can bring up both but which do you think the media will fixate on?

This is a no-win or, at best, a marginal win tactic for Trump. But it does appeal to his personality so he'll likely stick with it. And since it will only serve to make Ted Cruz seem more above the dirt then I think Trump should continue.

yes...yet somehow (mostly) none of the paid idiots in the media or politicians can figure it out. To me, that’s the most powerful effect of the Trump campaign.
