In the last GOP presidential debate, Carly Fiorina said that unlike Hillary Clinton ‘she actually likes spending time” with her husband.

Thursday night, she had another burn for the Clinton marriage. When asked why she had unleashed such a personal attack, Fiorina doled out round two.

“It wasn’t a political attack. I was pointing out that Hillary Clinton would do anything to gain and hold onto power, anything,” Fiorina said. “Listen, if my husband did what Bill Clinton did I would have left him long ago.”

Fiorina kept going.

“She’s escaped prosecution more than El Chapo,” Fiorina said. “She has not accomplished much of anything in her life. She’s gotten every single foreign policy challenge wrong and she continues to lie to the American people.”

  1. Republicans love their divorces.

    Those were vicious personal attacks.

    Carly’s area of expertise…

  3. Would have been awesome if there had been a live shot of Carly’s husband squirming a little as she spewed this.

  4. No one knows exactly how they would act until they are facing the situation. Different factors come into play when ultimately making final decision .
    Fiorina’s holier than thou attitude won’t really help her, as there are lots of women that have forgiven their spouse and can relate to SoS Clinton.
