Hillary Clinton said her skin crawled as Donald Trump loomed behind her at a presidential debate in St. Louis, and added that she wished she could have pressed pause and asked America, Well, what would you do?
The words, Clintons most detailed public comments about what happened during one of the campaigns more memorable moments, are included in her new book, What Happened, which she called an attempt to pull back the curtain on her losing bid for the presidency.
Some of the moments during the campaign, she said, baffled her. Others seemingly repulsed her: In recounting the October incident, she referred to Trump as a creep.
The book comes out Sept. 12, but audio excerpts, read by Clinton, were played Wednesday morning on MSNBCs Morning Joe.
In the recording, Clinton noted that she wrote about moments from the campaign that she wanted to remember forever as well as others she wished she could go back and do over.
The moment from the debate appeared to fall into the latter category.
This is not okay, I thought, Clinton said, reading from her book. 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. He was literally breathing down my neck. My skin crawled. ..."

Trotting out his victims at a debate was glorious
Yep, masterful
What made her skin crawl was gravity. It happens when you get old and fat.
Just seeing this B$tch or her rapist husband makes the 62+ million Trump voters’s skin crawl.
Obama, she and her rapist husband enabled Trump to become our president.
Thereby proving that she was too delicate to be President.
At this point in her life, all she has left, is to make up excuses.
She has very high standards. Consider her spouse Bill Clinton.
Hillary is a real piece of crap. Damn, that woman is sick and beyond any chance of not seeing jail or house arrest time.
Awwww, how Methodist of her...
As a germophobe, I’m sure the debates were no walk in the park for Donald. I mean, he had to get near, and even shake hands with, an amorphous blob of evil that reportedly smells of urine, cabbage and farts.
here = HER. Geez.
I thought that's what political campaigns were all about. Sounds like she didn't believe her "polls" either. She knew he was "breathing down her neck" during the debates.
Maybe it’s a side effect from all those years of Botox?
My skin crawls every time I see her or her disgusting husband or Webb Hubbell’s daughter.
The media thinks that is how a president should act.
She used the same excuse when she debated Rick Lazio...claimed he was menacing her when he walked across the stage to present her with a with a campaign finance pledge to sign. Always playing the victim. If she gets intimidated by men that easily, it's even more of a reason why she should never be President.
Sez the woman whose own campaign manager said she smelled like urine and boiled cabbage.
Perhaps it was crabs crawling...
