we have Trump to thank and no one else, for drawing Bill Clinton out in the public. Cruz could never accomplish this. No one else could. Trump is the only one that could flush those weasel's into the glaring light of day.

When you think about it, Trump is the only one willing and able to do the heavy lifting involved with throwing out years of accumulated democrat rubbish.

Trump is proving that one person can drive the narrative and public opinion despite the 24/7 attacks. Not everyone can do it, but he's in a position to execute it. Nearly flawlessly, I might add.

If Bill stays out of sight Trump can attack him all day long. If he comes out and starts to attack Trump, Trump can say it is really Bill running the campaign, which puts Hillary back in the kitchen while a man takes over. Exactly the wrong message she wants to send.

After watching Bill’s lackluster performance today I get the impression that he is hoping that Hillary loses so he can get back to Jeffrey Epstein’s pedo-island without the prying eyes of the media spotlight.

The timidity of the failed GOP over the past 15 years is being exposed.

Incisive post.

“Bill is an old man now. He no longer has the appeal to people he once had.”

Don’t be giving Hillary any ideas of snuffing him for sympathy votes

Thank you. I support rump because he is the only one doing these things. I sort of wish there were a better messenger however.

“If I were Bill Clinton”

If I were Bill Clinton, I’d not only have a trusted food taster, I’d have seperate, trusted bodyguards from Hillary. Sympathy votes for a widdow count like any others

If something is rising on Bill Clinton, I don’t want to hear about it.

How does one rise above the fact that one is a sexual predator?

One doesn't. That's a tough one to rise above, isn't it?

And just wait until the poor old girl gives way to Creepy Old Uncle Joe and Lieawatha. If Bernie Sanders doesn’t give you the creeps, Uncle Joe will.

Despite the hatred that Obama has for the Clintons he is a a marxist ideolog. He will support Hillary up to the point he thinks she is not electable. If it reaches this point the Department of Justice will by his orders, eliminate her.

Hello Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren

well I agree with that also. But what I mean is none of the major candidates should have to do any dirty work. That should be done by surrogate groups.

And once again the media presents it as “Trump attacks BILL Clinton.”

He’s attacking the ENABLER, the Bimbo Eruption Controller, Hillary Clinton.

The media refuses to report correctly. I caught a few moments of Megyn Kelly last night and she is doing the same. Kelly’s question, and it’s so obviously prejudiced and so shallow: “How can Trump attack Bill Clinton when Trump has been divorced twice before” (Paraphrase)

Hey, Megyn, Hillary Clinton worked overtime to HIDE Bill Clinton’s predations and to DESTROY the women who came out against his perversions.

Hillary has no right to call anyone sexist when she was an accomplice to her husband’s rapes.

Trump didn’t rape anyone, and he didn’t have anyone threatening those abused women in background, covert ways. Hillary did.

Hillary’s the one running for president, Kelly.
