Given his recent comments about Bill Clinton, Donald Trump on Tuesday night told a reporter that his own personal behavior would also be fair game during the presidential campaign.
Trump this week alluded to the Monica Lewinsky scandal in response to Hillary Clinton accusing him of sexism, and he said that her husband’s past would be “fair game” during the campaign.
If Hillary thinks she can unleash her husband, with his terrible record of women abuse, while playing the women’s card on me, she’s wrong!

Hillary Clinton has announced that she is letting her husband out to campaign but HE’S DEMONSTRATED A PENCHANT FOR SEXISM, so inappropriate!

On Tuesday evening, a reporter asked Trump if his “personal indiscretions” would also be fair game, according to video captured by CNN.
“Yes, they would be,” Trump responded before defending his decision to go after Bill Clinton.
“Frankly, Hillary brought up the whole thing with ‘sexist,’ and all I did was reverse it on her because she’s got a major problem, happens to be right in her house,” Trump said. “So, if she wants to do that, we’re going to go right after the president, the ex-president. We’ll see how it all comes out, and I feel very confident that it’ll come out very well for us.”

Careful, Donnie. The British Home Secretary might use your indiscretions as further evidence in banning you from entering the UK.

Hillary’s whole career is built on Bill’s indiscretions, so she should have no trouble at all exploiting Donald’s. Out of Bill’s indiscretions she got a Senate seat, but there isn’t enough milage in Donald’s indiscretions to get her the Presidency. For one thing, she’s not married to him so it makes it hard to play the victim yet again.
Trump. A special kind of stupefy.
Well, you know, the girl’s always crying sexism (and all the other isms) and it keeps Marshall intimidated. 2nd day in a row and where’s Hill? Front and center opening page - over some snarky remark. Isn’t she just so … woman!
Is Bernie still in the race? More front running from TPM.
It’s not YOUR indiscretions that are relevant in this argument, you’re not going after Hillary, you’re going after her family you neanderthal. The question should be is your daughter’s private life fair game, your wife, your ex wife’s alcoholism or drug abuse or your second cousin twice removed’s goat f$cking.
Is he really that crazy? Maybe it’s ‘afluenza’?
