Trump campaign says Bill Clinton’s past in sights for debate
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleDonald Trump’s campaign says the Republican presidential nominee may describe Bill Clinton’s sexual history in criminal terms at Sunday’s debate.
Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani said Trump wouldn’t hesitate to talk about “the women that Bill Clinton raped, sexually abused and attacked.”
Trump on Saturday retweeted a pair of postings by Juanita Broaddrick, whose accusations that Bill Clinton raped her in 1978 were never tested in criminal court. Bill Clinton has long denied the accusations.
Giuliani told NBC’s “Meet the Press” that Trump will cast Hillary Clinton’s “as the attacker” of women when she claims to be their champion.
The strategy comes as Trump reels from the release of his recorded description of his sexual aggression toward women. Giuliani says “both sides have sinned. So how about we put that behind us?”
