Who plays Armstrong Williams in this movie?
Did Hillary give David Brock some time off so he could play himself in the movie, and reprise his famous slur towards Hill, “a little bit nutty, a little bit slutty?”
I remember, I remember. How shabbily she was treated. How many men, including Democrats, forever shamed themselves.
I’d like to think our country has gotten a little better since then, and that she would be treated better today. I’d really like to believe that … but I don’t.
You think this was put together in anticipation of a Joe Biden run?

I saw the whole thing. I saw how that man said he was the “victim of a high-tech lynching”.
I saw how he slithered on top of the backs of multitudes of actual victims of real lynchings.
I see how he defiles ALL PEOPLE with his very existence.
