For women, Clinton is a bigger disappointment than Trump
CNN Opinion ^ | October 16, 2018 | Holly Thomas

Since the explosion of #MeToo in October 2017, many of us have become jaded to the stock responses we can often expect from certain figures to stories of sexual harassment and abuse. At a rally in Pennsylvania last week, for example, President Trump once again mocked the movement, claiming he "wasn't allowed" to use certain expressions anymore, and laughing when a member of the crowd urged him to "do it anyway." It is galling in another way, however, to hear #MeToo undermined from an unexpected quarter -- as it was a few days ago by Trump's 2016 opponent, Hillary Clinton.

The former first lady, senator and secretary of state was asked during a CBS interview that aired on Sunday whether she felt that her husband, former President Bill Clinton, abused his power by having an affair with Monica Lewinsky while he was in office. Her response? Lewinsky "was an adult" when it happened. When asked whether her husband should have stepped down after the scandal and his resulting impeachment, she replied: "Absolutely not." Clinton followed her answer with a question: "But let me ask you this. Where's the investigation of the current incumbent, against whom numerous allegations have been made, and which he dismisses, denies, and ridicules?"(continued)

For which women? Not all women. Just the women that CNN thinks they can manipulate.

Hillary Clinton is actually the biggest enabler of abuse of women in history. The Left shrugged it off and the feminists, et al ignored it and kicked the can down the road.

Still a variation of “guilty until proven innocent” but with a more genteel “hiLIARy should have been less evasive” message.

Hardly an indictment and certainly not support for #meselectivelytoo

Why? He just beats up and rapes women and children.
Commits treason along the way leaving a trail of dead.

But a weak accusation from 35 years ago is reason to lose your job while numerous credible claims against a Dem is to be ignored.

Well, all I can say is that since President Trump was inaugurated, nobody has dragged any $100 bills though my Trailer park.

Norm MacDonald said to the effect, that Americans hated Hillary so much that they voted for someone they hate even more, just to rub it in. Kind of a zen koan. By the way, the Demagogic Party doesn't give a **** about anyone or anything other than having a death grip on power. Next time they manage to get it, we must make sure that "death grip" isn't just an expression.

WJC was accused of rape. By the Democrats standards that makes him guilty.
