Former President Bill Clinton on Wednesday knocked Donald Trump for attacking Hillary Clinton over her ties to the Clinton Foundation, suggesting it was a ploy to distract from Trump’s “pay to play” troubles with Trump University in Florida.
“They’re gonna accuse me of pay to play in Florida. I think I’ll accuse her of it,” Bill Clinton told the crowd at a rally in Orlando, impersonating Trump.
The Trump Foundation improperly gave a group supporting Pam Bondi, the attorney general in Florida, a $25,000 donation in 2013. The donation came after Bondi’s office decided not to join a lawsuit against Trump University. Trump also later held a fundraiser for Bondi at his Florida estate, Mar-A-Lago.
Trump has repeatedly tried to paint Hillary Clinton as corrupt, accusing her of doing favors for Clinton Foundation donors while she was secretary of state.
The former president also defended the Clinton Foundation, specifically touting the group’s work in Haiti.
“If creating jobs and saving lives is bad, I guess you can zing me with it,” he said.
Bill Clinton, smarter than the press.
Trump: And? Its working. I win.
I hope this guy stays healthy and lives to see the misses wipe the floor with his perennial detractors and to see her 2nd term…
to TPM/Catlain MacNeal: The correct word is BRIBERY, not ‘pay to play.’
Rethugs always attack from their own weakness. The media knows it, but pretends it doesn’t.
Cuz the media is a bunch of fucking jackals
