Trump’s Mocking of Christine Ford was Nothing Like the Trailer Park Slurs of Clinton Era

Sen. Lindsey Graham doesn’t like President Trump ridiculing Christine Blasey Ford, but he insists she’s been given a lot more respect than women who alleged sexual misbehavior in the 1990s. At a forum hosted by the Atlantic, the magazine’s editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, pressed Graham on the president’s behavior.

“Everything he said was factual,” the South Carolina senator said initially. “He’s frustrated his nominee has been treated so badly.” Goldberg interjected. “Actually it was a personal, degrading attack on someone who is a private citizen ...” Graham interrupted: "Say what?"

As it turns out, Graham was parroting an infamous line by James Carville, one of the architects of Bill Clinton’s victory in the 1992 presidential election. Carville made his remark a few years later, after Paula Jones accused Clinton of exposing himself to her when he was governor of Arkansas.

What Carville actually said was, “Drag a hundred dollars through a trailer park and there’s no telling what you’ll find.” He and other Clinton allies furiously attacked several women who came forward to allege misbehavior on the part of the president.

After a moment’s silence, Graham quipped to the Atlantic audience: “Most of you all are too young to remember this.”

“The bottom line is,” Graham continued, “I know what can happen to a woman who comes forward in a political environment. ... For every woman who comes forward, God knows how many never said a word and take it to their grave.”

Yet not every accusation is true, said Graham, who’s emerged as Kavanaugh’s staunchest defender in the Senate. The third-term senator is a former military prosecutor.

“Sometimes people are accused of something they didn’t do. So President Trump went through a factual rendition that I didn’t particularly like, and I would tell him to knock it off. You’re not helping. But it can be worse.”

“The point is, we have come a long way,” Graham said. “I thought [Ford] was handled respectfully [during the hearing]. I thought Cavanaugh was treated like crap.”

And here are some direct quotes from Bill Clinton’s supporters concerning HIS accusers:

Hillary:

In an interview, Hillary said those accusing and investigating her husband “would have a lot to answer for” and that their backgrounds would be investigated.

“Bimbo eruptions.” “I would crucify her.” “We have to destroy her story.” These are just some of the things said and done by Hillary Clinton to undermine women who accused her husband, Bill Clinton, of infidelity and even assault.

[Mr. K]

How is repeating her ridiculous lies ‘mocking’?

[sevinufnine]

Hillary Clinton dismissed an accusation made by Gennifer Flowers, the singer who sold her story to a supermarket tabloid after having previously denied an affair. In an ABC News interview, she called Flowers “some failed cabaret singer who doesn’t even have much of a résumé to fall back on.” She told Esquire magazine in 1992 that if she had the chance to cross-examine Flowers, “I mean, I would crucify her.”

Hillary again: When the Lewinsky scandal emerged, in which Clinton had oral sex with the then-White House intern in the Oval Office, Hillary Clinton refused to credit the story of his accuser, choosing to believe her husband’s lies instead. She reportedly called Lewinsky a “narcissistic loony toon.”

WIKI---David Schippers became a public figure when a friend of his, Congressman Henry Hyde, asked him to be the Chief Investigative Counsel for the US House Judiciary Committee. Schippers was a lifelong Democrat but accepted and took the job in April 1998.[3]

The Committee was holding an inquiry on whether President Bill Clinton had committed impeachable offences in his handling of the Paula Jones sexual harassment suit..... during which he committed perjury regarding his affair with then-White House Intern Monica Lewinsky.

On December 10, 1998, Schippers said to the committee: "The President, then, has lied under oath in a civil deposition, lied under oath in a criminal grand jury. He lied to the people, he lied to his Cabinet, he lied to his top aides, and now he's lied under oath to the Congress of the United States. There's no one left to lie to."[4]

After an investigation, the committee in December 1998 voted to impeach Clinton, a decision supported by Schippers.[5]

==============================================

One Clinton lies.....

"I never had sexual relations with that woman...Miss Lewinsky."

And the other Clinton swears to it.

Standing by her man (sniffle).

=============================================

VINTAGE TIME COVER The Clintons leave the WH
arm-in-arm after Bill got lewinskied. Plotting to exploit
Bill's BJ for votes, the Clintons' political apparat never faltered.
That smirk on Hillary's face tells the story.

Hillary later went on network TV all decked out in virginal pearls,
denying everything, blaming Billy's B/J on "an invention of a VRWC."

Bill later admitted to it, was impeached, and disbarred.
He had to pay Paula Jones 850,000 dollars.

Rubbing a liar’s face in her own lies is quite appropriate.

Define “mocking.” Why have we conceded the term?

SNL made light of Paula Jones’ testimony of being groped, witnessing BJ Clinton drop his trousers, grab her hand to his naked crotch, and order her to “kiss it”.

Gloria Steinem said that even if what Paula Jones said was true it didn’t rise to the level of sexual harassment, let alone sexual assault. First grope is free.

“Trump’s mocking...”

Bailed right there. He didn’t mock anyone.

The “Champion of Women”, unless they get in her way...

[JonPreston]

As the left has begun to physically assault us & members of congress, Trump is chastised for stating facts. My how far we have fallen.

“Rubbing a liar’s face in her own lies is quite appropriate.”

True, but it’s like rubbing a puppy’s face in it’s own poo when it goes inside the house. It’s confused, but doesn’t connect the punishment to the behavior and keeps doing the same thing.

The Hollywood glitterati ponied up bigtime for Clinton's sex mess defense. Herewith, for your edification, are the Certified Democrat Degenerates......the scum that vilify and destroy America's Judeo-Christian ethics and values in movies promoted as being "diverse, politically correct, and socially relevant."

HOLLYWOOD'S CERTIFIED DEMOCRAT DEGENERATES FINANCED BILL CLINTON'S LEWINSKY SEX MESS

According to FEC Info, an Internet Web site (www.tray.com) that tracks federal political contributions, 176 individual donors actually contributed $10,000 or more to the lewinsky-era Clinton Legal Expense Trust fund through Dec 1999. Another 21 donors gave $10,000 in the first six months of 2000.

Thanks to Hollywood's generosity, a total of more than $2.2 million was raised in six months, which was notably more than was collected in funding during the previous four years of his presidency—combined. Hollywood producers and stars made up the bulk of the most generous givers. They included:

<><> Universal Studios tycoon Lew Wasserman and his wife, Edith, gave $60,000;

<><>DreamWorks trio Steven Spielberg, David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg, $20,000 each;

<><> producer Ron Burkle and his wife, Janet, $40,000;

<><> producers Peg and Bud Yorkin, $30,000;

<><> TV producer Norman Lear, $20,000.

Entertainment celebrities and executives giving $10,000 included:

<><> singers Tony Bennett and feminist Barbra Streisand;

<><><> actors Michael Douglas and Tom Hanks;

<><> director Ron Howard; producer Gail Zappa;

<><>Black Entertainment Television founder Robert L. Johnson.

===========================================

<><> How did the Hollywood elite list payments to Clinton's sex defense fund on their corporate statements AND on their tax returns?

<><>How did the "DreamWorks" trio, Steven Spielberg, David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg, list their 60,000 dollars to Clinton's sex defense fund?

<><>How did BET list its contribution to Clinton on its corporate statements?

<><> Did Harvey's company list these payments as "business expenses?"

The biggie is the tax element.

<><> Did donors deduct it as a “business expense”,

<><> was it included in assets, payments listed on organization balance sheets as a "liability?"

<><> Did Clinton document it as "income"?

<><> Were the donors given a tax-free certificate from the Clinton Foundation?

When Bill Clinton was at the height of the Monica Lewinsky sex scandal, Hollywood was by his side, offering donations for his legal fees, and one significant donor was a man who is now going through his own sex scandal—Harvey Weinstein.

Billionaire Harvey Weinstein raised $1,422,683 for federal candidates and political entities between 1990-2016. That’s small potatoes for his 27 years of rank Democratism, sucking up to feminism and upholding so-called abortion rights as he rampaged and assaulted young women. Adds up to about $5300 a year.

Something tells me there are a lot of cash payments off-the-record being paid. (hat tip outpostinmass2) Crunching the numbers as outpost did does give us a sharper look at the political money game as played by the conniving Clintons.

Harvey also gave a bundle to the nefarious tax-exempt Clinton Foundation and perhaps to offshoots of the Clintons tax-free entities.

Did Harvey's donations to the C/F go to "do-good projects"? Or did they make a circuitous route? Maybe landing back into the Clintons eternal political scams?
