Clinton Dismisses Sexual Misconduct Claims Against Her Husband as Already ‘Litigated’

Hillary Clinton on Friday dismissed claims of sexual misconduct made against her husband Bill Clinton as "litigated" and "clearly in the past" while panning Donald Trump as an admitted "sexual assaulter."
The issue arose during an interview with the BBC, where Clinton addressed the sexual abuse and harassment claims being made against Harvey Weinstein, a longtime Democratic bundler and donor, the Daily Caller reported .
"I was shocked and appalled … It was just disgusting and the stories that have come out are heartbreaking," Clinton said. "And I really commend the women who have been willing to step forward now and tell their stories."
Clinton added it was important to not just focus on him but also recognize such behavior wasn't acceptable anywhere.
"After all, we have someone admitting to being a sexual assaulter in the Oval Office," she said in reference to Trump. "There has to be a recognition that we must stand against this kind of action that is so sexist and misogynistic."
The BBC's Andrew Marr asked Clinton about the town hall debate last year where Trump invited Juanita Broaddrick, Paula Jones, and Kathleen Willey to attend; all three women have accused her husband of various forms of sexual abuse or harassment. Broaddrick has long alleged the former president raped her in 1978.
Marr noted Clinton "dismissed" them in her book What Happened about the 2016 campaign, asking if that was a wise course of action.
"Well, yes, because that all been litigated," Clinton said. That was the subject of a huge investigation … in the late '90s, and there were conclusions drawn, and that was clearly in the past.

5 o’clock Friday, gotta be happy hour somewhere
The response from Bill and Hillary’s victims should be interesting.
She would have sounded smarter if she didn’t bring up comparing other people to Weinstein.
Yes go there Hillary.
She just cannot shut up.
Good !
Wow! I didn’t think that even HRC was this brazen. I hope PDJT sues her. He did not admit to being a sexual assaulter. He said that women let celebrities do whatever. He never said he did anything a woman did not want.
It means roughly the same thing as "Settled Science."
The Clinton Crime Foundation appears to be immune from prosecution!
I never get enough of Gumby Hillary
Ted Bundy’s case has been “litigated”.
He’s still a serial killer.
"I did not litigate that woman..."
We must have missed her horn dog hubby’s “litigation.” The Democrat media litigated the Republicans for daring to do anything to their hillbilly hero.
Litigated?
And the lap-dog media didn’t question her on it. You can continue to be a bald faced liar as long as no one calls you out.
I don’t think so, Hillary.
So funny. She still has to talk about it. It won’t go away.
