The numerous allegations of sexual harassment levied against him mean President Trump is a reprehensible monster, according to Hillary Clinton, but when it comes to similar claims made about her husband, former President Bill Clinton, it’s a different story.
That’s what Hillary Clinton told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour during an interview Tuesday when Amanpour prodded her about the allegations facing her husband and how she squares supporting him with her criticisms of men like Trump and Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
The difference-maker, according to Clinton, is the fact that the allegations facing her husband were thoroughly investigated by a federal prosecutor.
Of course, her response completely glosses over the fact that not only were the claims against Kavanaugh investigated by the FBI during last week’s follow-up background check probe – but Kavanaugh has faced numerous background check investigations over the years before taking jobs in the White House and then, more recently, as a federal judge.
“Well, there’s a very significant difference and that is the intense, long-lasting, partisan investigation that was conducted in the 90s,” Clinton said. “If the Republicans, starting with President Trump on down want a comparison, they should welcome such an investigation themselves.”
But that’s not entirely true. While Clinton’s sexual misconduct involving Monica Lewinsky and Paula Jones was investigated back in the 1990s, Juanita Broaddrick’s claim that Clinton raped her back when he was serving as attorney general of Arkansas has never been closely examined.
Still, Clinton insisted that her husband’s ability to “survive” these allegations through multiple political races is a testament to how Democrats must be “tough” in the face of Republican opposition.

My wife tells me that is a sign of the dog (horse?) showing who is dominant. As you showed the horse - a person with opposable thumbs that can work a knife is dominant. Hmm - did that solve the horse’s problem?
....she’s so full of sh t her a** could be the source of an eternal flame...
I don’t think we would get much relief if she did. We would have to endure a state funeral, endless eulogies on how great she was and maybe worst of all, Trump ordering the flag at half mast. That’s going to be tough stomach!
It’s a VRWC!!!

... AND FOUND CREDIBLE!!!!
Is there even a shred of truth to this statement? I don't remember any such investigation.
In truth they were thoroughly investigated and during that investigation Bill Clinton lied and committed perjury which led to the articles of impeachment that passed congress and ended with a 50/50 tie in the senate when voted upon.
Of course, Hillary fails to mention that during her interviews... She just remembers that Bill managed to avoid being removed from office, but it was probably for the best anyways... If he had been removed then Al Gore would have ascended to the Presidency.... That’s the real reason why they didn’t vote against him in the Senate. They knew Al Gore was more of lunatic than Bill Clinton could ever be.
“Some animals or more equal than others!” said the communist pig whore.
Straight from the animal farm.
I knew the Monica Lewinsky thing was investigated, but don’t remember it including the other allegations. I’ll have to look it up, if it’s findable, that is.
thats too funny!!! Thank you!
I'd never see it. I live a long long way from oceans.
That’s a pretty girl Bill. Who is she?
Actually the real charges where the treasonous dealings Bill had with the Chinese PLA - US secrets for campaign cash - but no one wanted to look at the mountain of evidence, so they compromised on the sex charges.
Al Gore was in just as deep as Bill and just as treasonous - he too would have been removed has Bill been charged as he should have been.
bump
Yep - timely reporting, actual witnesses to corroborate, actual punching and hurting and actual rape....way different than a made up story about a 35 year old fairy tale which might have been fueled by an even earlier childhood sexual assault by a family member....
The one situation taken to court resulted in Bubba paying his victim off......... that is definitely different
They sure are different.
They were real. And he has a LONG History....

Different because Demonrats aren’t expected to be held accountable for their actions. Plus his is different because they actually happened.
Different = Far worse.
