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.

I've heard it directly. "I slept with......."
power trippers and fame seekers
That sounds reasoned, as an explanation that is. Is it a reasoned stance by them? no. He’s a rapist, and he has been brutally violent in a few of those instances.
I will admit to this being a poor choice of words though.
“What bothers me as much as anything Clinton did, is these women with gaga eyes when he came near.”
What these women do should not bother me as much as what Clinton did, but I’m at a loss for words to describe why they would seemingly exonerate the man for past crimes, by acting as if he was such a great ladies man.
I think your explanation comes as near as possible. I sure find it to be evidence of a seriously screwed up woman though.
He was/is a beast.
Onona, if you ever notice I’m with a woman like that, pull me aside. LOL
I try to avoid them like the plague.
Well, charges against her for criminal obstruction, tampering with evidence, numerous incidents of mishandling classified information, and illegal arms sales have not been litigated.
This fine lady is crazy, meshugenah, bonkers. Out of her mind.
She's a lawyer; doesn't she know the definition of "litigated"?
What are the initials of the chairman of the jury that acquitted Bill?
Wait, wait! I know that one: F. U.
She made sure NONE if Bill’s antics were EVER ‘litigated’!
Hillary was asked if Weinstein’s behavior compared to her husbands. She said, close but no cigar.
Great photo!!! When was that taken?
I love it when she talks she sounds crazier everyday.
