Former President Clinton said in an interview broadcast early Sunday that he doesn’t think he could be elected now because he doesn’t like embarrassing people the way President Trump does.

“I couldn't be elected anything now 'cause I just don't like embarrassing people,” Clinton told “CBS Sunday Morning.”

“My mother woulda whipped me for five days in a row when I was a little boy if I spent all my time badmouthing people like this,” Clinton told CBS’s Mo Rocca.

Trump has often publicly hit his opponents hard and still refers to Hillary Clinton as “Crooked Hillary,” a nickname he popularized during the 2016 presidential election.

The “lock her up” chant that came to characterize his campaign rallies is often cited when referencing the heavy animosity Trump created toward the Democratic presidential nominee.

"There's a Trump supporter here in town that — I walked past his house with my dogs. He had a 'lock her up' poster in his front window. And I said to him, 'If you're gonna do that to my wife, you make sure the prisons are comfortable. Cause you're gonna have a lot of company of your supporters in there,' " Bill Clinton told CBS.

"And he said, '[former President] Obama and Hillary started the second Civil War.' So, there's division. But underneath that, there's a core of fundamental decency that can be really skewed when people feel abused, left out, or looked down on," the former president added.

Clinton during the interview also responded to Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand’s (D-N.Y.) assertion that he should have stepped down from office after his affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky was made public.

"You have to really ignore what the context was," Clinton said. "But, you know, she’s living in a different context. And she did it for different reasons. But I just disagree with her."

Author gives Trump to much credit. Hilary was reviled long before Trump became a candidate.

He doesn't like embarrassing people? His whole Presidency was an embarrassment.

It's a good thing we have Trump in office now to restore dignity to the Presidency.

[euphemia]

He had no problem with embarrassing himself. Still doesn't.

I don't know about that Bill. I'm sure you'd be able to get a lot of young people to vote for you with your mad saxophone skills like you did in 92.

Girl don't go away mad, girl, just go the f*** away...

Bill is the only Democrat President since Grover Cleveland that I don't absolutely hate. I also agree with him that the whole Monica Lewinsky thing was nothing.

Bill couldn't win because he is a radically right wing relative to the rest of his party. There are no economic centrists in that party anymore.

Norm Macdonald did a lot of Clinton Chinese jokes back in the 90s on SNL. Apparently that was a thing.

You are nuts, he was vile, Monicagate was a controlled opposition maneuver to distract from his treason problems.

It is Americans' fault they can not compete in the global economy. This could be easily solved by bringing the quality of life down and then we could better compete with third world countries.

Bill Clinton rape accuser Juanita Broaddrick says she was “sickened” by NBC’s interview of Clinton in which the network only asked the former president about his consensual affair with Monica Lewinsky in the context of the current #MeToo era. “I can’t believe there is not a reporter out there,” Broaddrick told Breitbart News in an interview. “I mean, this person had a perfect opportunity today to ask Bill Clinton about the allegations of sexual assault and rape.”
“Why doesn’t NBC have me on to discuss the rape? Of course, they are the same network that held my 1999 interview until after the impeachment hearing.”
In today’s interview (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/clinton-i-wouldn-t-have-done-anything-differently-lewinsky-affair-n879721), NBC News’ Craig Melvin grilled Clinton about whether he would have dealt with the Monica Lewinsky affair differently in light of the #MeToo movement.
Entirely unmentioned were the numerous sexual assault and harassment allegations against Clinton, including those from Broaddrick, Paula Jones (http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/02/22/exclusive-paula-jones-bill-clinton-persisted-after-initial-assault-hes-got-a-problem/), Kathleen Willey (http://www.breitbart.com/2016-presidential-race/2016/09/25/exclusive-kathleen-willey-clinton-sex-victims-fill-entire-audience-presidential-debate/) and former reporter Leslie Millwee (http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/10/19/exclusive-video-interview-new-bill-clinton-sexual-assault-accuser-goes-public-first-time/).
Clinton utilized the interview to suggest that his critics are “omitting facts” to group him together with other men accused during the #MeToo campaign.
“A lot of the facts have been omitted to make the story work,” he claimed. “I think partly because they’re frustrated that they got all these serious allegations against the current occupant of the Oval Office and his voters don’t seem to care.”
Clinton failed to mention the serious allegations against him of allegedly violently raping Broaddrick in a hotel room in 1978, Broaddrick noted.
“You know, his interview took away so much from the real victims over the years,” Broadrick said. “The victims against which he perpetrated the sexual assault and harassment and of course raping me.
“I’m not concerned with his consensual sex. I care about him being brought to justice for the crimes he committed against me and the others. That’s what I care about.”
Broaddrick slammed NBC for “failing” to bring up the charges during a conversation about the mistreatment of women.

He is pure evil, just like his partner-in-crime.

I heard today that he's writing a book about a fictitious president who "goes through a lot of challenges but then comes out a hero." I needed a barf bag after hearing that.

June 3, 2018

Former President Bill Clinton said Sunday he believed that President Barack Obama received friendlier media coverage than did other chief executives in part because of his race.

Asked about the stark contrast in press coverage between Mr. Obama and President Trump, Mr. Clinton agreed that there was a different standard.

“They did treat him [Obama] differently than other Democrats and Republicans,” Mr. Clinton said in an interview on “CBS This Morning.” “It was the political press.”

Why? “I don’t know. They liked him. And they liked having the first African-American president, and he was a good president I think,” Mr. Clinton said. “I don’t agree with President Trump’s assessment of his service.”
