Where is Bill Clinton's #MeToo reckoning?
LA TImes ^ | November 4, 2018 | Joshua Kendall

Posted on 11/05/2018 6:06:10 AM PST by C19fan

A certain gracefully aging man is earning millions from various media ventures. His most recent book, a thriller co-written with the publishing titan James Patterson, spent weeks atop the New York Times bestseller list over the summer. More than a million copies were sold in North America within two months. Showtime is set to turn the novel into a TV series. Soon, this famous man and his equally famous wife will embark on a 13-city tour across the country.

The eminence grise in question is, of course, former President Bill Clinton. And you might say he is on a roll, except for one nagging concern: He faces several credible allegations of sexual assault.

I think all these stories and comments from the Left about Slick Willie is signalling Hillary to no even consider running in 2020.

See my tagline.

There is no change if a few pundits in a few leftist rags say “there MIGHT e something there but then again...”

we used to talk of the post-modern generation/society

we are now post-shame

there is no offense including rape and murder that a celebrity or public figure cannot stage a comeback from.

Even if the public “forgives” Willie, the event promoters and civic theaters could close their doors to him and his wife’s tour.

That was the problem with running Hillary in 2016. In 2012, Dims had warmed up the “war on women” meme, but were unable to use it in 2016 because of molester Bill. He may have to be pitched onto the pyre prior to 2020 in order to reestablish the credibility of that attack on Trump. This will be especially true if the Left runs a woman. On the other hand depending on the result in the midterms, the Left may have to put the mask back on, run a white male, and take on the guise of wholesomeness for a few more years. Obama pushed immorality a little too fast and far for most.

Defend a pro-abortionist, no matter what the cost.

Have to believe that if Bill passes away before 2020 - Hillary will run as ‘the black widow’ for the sympathy vote.

p.s. there is a photoshopped picture of Hillary in blackface and Bill as a redneck floating around. check it out - from 2016 I believe.

He faces several credible allegations of sexual assault.

Okay, tinfoil hat time. Almost all of the allegations of sexual assault against Justice Kavanaugh are now being debunked, walked-back, found to be hoaxes, whatever you want to call it. Is it possible that all of the "#MeToo" false allegations have anything to do with Slick Willie's problems?

Think of it. The groundwork has been laid for push back against the seemingly rampant allegations of late. Knowing how the LSM loves the Clintoons, it's not hard to see WaPo, the LA or NY Slimes or any of the Alphabet networks (of which I now include FNC) slamming the women with the "look at how many false accusations came up against Kavanaugh" meme. It worked to a large extent in 1992, I'm sure it will play in 2018.

Removing hat now.

The L.A. Times??

translation: The Left is going to do it’s level-best to kneecap the Clintons once and for all. Before she effs-up another election for them.

“He faces several credible allegations of sexual assault.”

If you have a pulse you’d know that this is a major understatement.
