CHAUVINIST Donald Trump In 1998: Bill Clinton Is A ‘Victim’ Of ‘Unattractive’ Women

Donald Trump plans to make former President Bill Clinton’s sexual history come back to haunt him by labelling him as an “abuser” of women.

Yet nearly two decades ago, Trump verbally abused the very people he purports to defend—and even suggested Clinton was a “victim.”

During an August 1998 appearance on Fox News, the real estate mogul was asked about then-President Clinton’s multiple alleged extramarital affairs and sexual harassment cases. Trump proceeded to rail against the Clinton accusers.

“The whole thing, it’s just so unattractive,” the orange-hued demagogue told host Neil Cavuto, according to transcripts. “Linda Tripp may be one of the most unattractive human beings I’ve ever seen—not women, human beings. She’s just an unattractive person. This [Lucianne] Goldberg person, her agent or whatever she is, is just a terrible woman. You look at Paula Jones, I mean the whole cast of characters.”

He added: “It’s like it’s from Hell. It’s a terrible group of people.”

Trump noted, however, that if the accusers were supermodels they “would be more pleasant to watch.”

He kind of fits as a histrionic with severe narcissism but my gods. It just defies words. I can't believe this is what the Republicans came up with. There were 17 people in that clown car and they handed this Bozo the keys so he could drive them all over the cliff. It's simply astounding.

This! The man is such a revolting pig. He is in no position to criticize anybody on their looks or their character.

It won't hurt him among his supporters, but I believe it will bite him in the ass in the general election.
