Former President Bill Clinton sounded frustrated about his value to his wife's presidential bid on the campaign trail in South Dakota on Friday.
The ex-president took a moment to ponder his lot in life onstage, and revealed the exasperation he has experienced stumping for Hillary Clinton.
"I sometimes feel that I'm totally useless in this election season because I'm a happy grandfather. I'm not mad enough at anybody," Clinton said. "And because the life I spend now is driven by the real world and facts. I mean, we live in kind of a fact-free political universe, you know?"

We had similar childhoods. :)
I concur.
You didn’t help much in 2008 either.
In 2016, even fewer know who you are or what you did. But, the more you try to make waves and get attention, the more your past will catch up with you.
“...flying ashtray...”
Or a flying intern...
A Hillary defeat will be very interesting.
Bubba Clintoon is like Beck. Everytime, he opens his mouth, he helps Trump!
He’ll be useful around November when Hillary has him Scalia’ed to get the election sympathy vote.
Please Bill, PLEASE whisper into her ear at night, “Double down on the anti-gun talk, it’s good politics”.
PLEASE!
Cuz it’s all about you, Bill...right after it’s all about your wife. Or vice versa. Must be a helluva marriage!
Exactly as Trump had planned.
He’s perceptive, that one is.
I see Billy Boy living to see Hillary defeated. No sympathy vote.
Hey Bubba you and your Queen of Corruption had yer’s fun in the sun. Take a hike and scram— enjoy the few years you have left with the absconded million$-— exit, stage far left.
He might come useful in october when he mysteriously dies or gets violently sick.
Exactly! And how many people’s lives did he ruin on the way to his “Happy Grandfather” place? Those mills are grinding slow and small for him.
IF, God forbid, Hillary were to win in November, I don’t think Bill himself is up to the job, or much of anything. She would have his machine at her disposal, however: Carville/Begala/Podesta/Blumenthal, etc., etc., etc.
We love you Bill. Keep up the good work!
The Trump Family
No Rapist, you are useful as a PUNCHING BAG!!! Because YOU and HILLARY DESERVE IT!!
Has he EVER closed that GAPING MOUTH of his??? “AW SHUCKS” is getting old and DECREPIT looking.
“I mean, we live in kind of a fact-free political universe, you know?” Bill Clinton, May 2016
Eileen Wellstone, 19-year-old English woman who said Clinton sexually assaulted her after she met him at a pub near the Oxford where the future President was a student in 1969. A retired State Department employee, who asked not to be identified, confirmed that he spoke with the family of the girl and filed a report with his superiors. Clinton admitted having sex with the girl, but claimed it was consensual. The victim’s family declined to pursue the case;
In 1972, a 22-year-old woman told campus police at Yale University that she was sexually assaulted by Clinton, a law student at the college. No charges were filed, but retired campus policemen contacted by Capitol Hill Blue confirmed the incident. The woman, tracked down by Capitol Hill Blue last week, confirmed the incident, but declined to discuss it further and would not give permission to use her name;
In 1974, a female student at the University of Arkansas complained that then-law school instructor Bill Clinton tried to prevent her from leaving his office during a conference. She said he groped her and forced his hand inside her blouse. She complained to her faculty advisor who confronted Clinton, but Clinton claimed the student ‘’came on’’ to him. The student left the school shortly after the incident. Reached at her home in Texas, the former student confirmed the incident, but declined to go on the record with her account. Several former students at the University have confirmed the incident in confidential interviews and said there were other reports of Clinton attempting to force himself on female students;
Broaddrick, a volunteer in Clinton’s gubernatorial campaign, said he raped her in 1978. Mrs. Broaddrick suffered a bruised and torn lip, which she said she suffered when Clinton bit her during the rape;
From 1978-1980, during Clinton’s first term as governor of Arkansas, state troopers assigned to protect the governor were aware of at least seven complaints from women who said Clinton forced, or attempted to force, himself on them sexually. One retired state trooper said in an interview that the common joke among those assigned to protect Clinton was “who’s next?”. One former state trooper said other troopers would often escort women to the governor’s hotel room after political events, often more than one an evening;
Carolyn Moffet, a legal secretary in Little Rock in 1979, said she met then-governor Clinton at a political fundraiser and shortly thereafter received an invitation to meet the governor in his hotel room. “I was escorted there by a state trooper. When I went in, he was sitting on a couch, wearing only an undershirt. He pointed at his penis and told me to suck it. I told him I didn’t even do that for my boyfriend and he got mad, grabbed my head and shoved it into his lap. I pulled away from him and ran out of the room.”
Elizabeth Ward, the Miss Arkansas who won the Miss America crown in 1982, told friends she was forced by Clinton to have sex with him shortly after she won her state crown. Last year, Ward, who is now married with the last name of Gracen (from her first marriage), told an interviewer she did have sex with Clinton but said it was consensual. Close friends of Ward, however, say she still maintains privately that Clinton forced himself on her.
Paula Corbin, an Arkansas state worker, filed a sexual harassment case against Clinton after an encounter in a Little Rock hotel room where the then-governor exposed himself and demanded oral sex. Clinton settled the case with Jones recently with an $850,000 cash payment.
Sandra Allen James, a former Washington, DC, political fundraiser says Presidential candidate-to-be Clinton invited her to his hotel room during a political trip to the nation’s capital in 1991, pinned her against the wall and stuck his hand up her dress. She says she screamed loud enough for the Arkansas State Trooper stationed outside the hotel suite to bang on the door and ask if everything was all right, at which point Clinton released her and she fled the room. When she reported the incident to her boss, he advised her to keep her mouth shut if she wanted to keep working. Miss James has since married and left Washington. Reached at her home last week, the former Miss James said she later learned that other women suffered the same fate at Clinton’s hands when he was in Washington during his Presidential run.
Christy Zercher, a flight attendant on Clinton’s leased campaign plane in 1992, says Presidential candidate Clinton exposed himself to her, grabbed her breasts and made explicit remarks about oral sex. A video shot on board the plane by ABC News shows an obviously inebriated Clinton with his hand between another young flight attendant’s legs. Zercher said later in an interview that White House attorney Bruce Lindsey tried to pressure her into not going public about the assault.
Kathleen Willey, a White House volunteer, reported that Clinton grabbed her, fondled her breast and pressed her hand against his genitals during an Oval Office meeting in November, 1993. Willey, who told her story in a 60 Minutes interview, became a target of a White House-directed smear campaign after she went public.
Facts are stubborn things, Slick.
Go Trump. Better late than never.
Is he having trouble getting a erection?
