While interviewing Republican frontrunner Donald Trump Tuesday, âThe Todayâs Showâsâ precious sunflower Savannah Guthrie described Clintonâs well-documented and admitted-to affair with Monica Lewinsky as âalleged.â Trump immediately jumped down her lying throat.
Courtesy of the Washington Examiner:
âYou mention Monica Lewinsky,â Guthrie asked. âAre you saying an alleged extra-marital affair, that of course he has now admitted, is that fair game?â
âIs it alleged? I donât think thatâs alleged,â Trump pounced. â¦
âNo, heâs admitted it, heâs admitted it,â Guthrie agreed.
âIf heâs admitted it, you donât have to use the word alleged,â Trump replied.
âRight, exactly,â Guthrie said. âAre you saying an extramarital affair by Bill Clinton is fair game, is something that you think should be in the campaign?â
After Guthrie failed to sneak that one past, the left-wing precious sunflower then took issue with a Trump tweet reminding people that during the 2008 Democrat primary, Bill Clinton was accused of racism for his behavior towards Barack Obama in South Carolina:
Guthrie asked whether that tweet means Trump himself believes Bill Clinton is a racist.
âNo, he was called that by the Obama campaign, he was called it loud and clear,â Trump said.
âThen why put it in your tweet if you donât believe it?â Guthrie pressed.
âAll I said was what they said, Savannah,â Trump explained. âThatâs what they said, they called him a racist. I donât believe he is a racist, if you want to know the truth, but they called him a racist, it was a miserable campaign, he did very poorly, and if they bring him about again, heâs being wheeled out and weâre going to see what happens.â

Shameful.

Speaking of “””alleged “””...
Folks, you all are getting way too hung up on the use of “alleged”
The real problem here is “extramarital affair”. Guthrie is trying to employ the old “it was just about sex, and therefore private” argument that was used to some success during the impeachement.
Bill Clinton didn’t just have an “extramarital affair” — he had an extensive and well docmented pattern of misogynistic abuse of women, and he employed the powers of his office to attempt to cover it up.
It’s not the “extramarital” (let alone the “alleged”). It’s the misogyny. Thats what needs to be driven home here, particularly Hillary’s active enablement of it.
Moment?
Doesn’t work for me.
guilty. and not even allegedly.
I can copy a Comment in FR and Paste it (in HTML italics) at the start of my comment and it yields “garbage” characters. FR to FR, Cut & Paste!
FR webmasters need to fix this!
I’ve been using it for quite a while, basically every day for posting on FR.
She was a criminal as first lady. She has also acted in a criminal manner as Secretary of State.
She is a criminal and you and I would be in jail if we did the same.
NBC news is an alleged news channel too..
A key point is that the alternative media wasn’t then what it is now. A lot of the stuff that is claimed to be “old news” was never properly aired to many.
I just tried it, no change at all.
Are you starting with original text that contains the “curly” quotes?
Or copying text that already has the extra characters displayed?
It is for use of the first, not the second.
‘he’s being wheeled out’
What an image! Trump makes it sound like Bill Clinton is in a wheelchair. That’s going to stick in the minds of people who heard it.
Donald Trump isn’t exactly innocent when it comes to affairs. His affair with Marla Maples is what caused his divorce with Ivana.
That being said, I’ll support Trump is he is my nominee, although I prefer Cruz.
In Clinton's day MSM gatekeepers like NBC and the New York Times controlled with lies and half truths. The MSM can't do that today except with people too stupid to understand how to use a computer.
The reign of the MSM is officially O-VAR.
It was certainly “sexual abuse of a subordinate”. It “allegedly” went beyond “abuse of a subordinate” and was a consensual affair between two adults with feelings for each other.
