New Trump talking-point: "Hillary Clinton is sexually assaulting women!"

http://www.rawstory.com/2016/10/cnn-panel-humiliates-trump-advocate-after-she-absurdly-insists-hillary-sexually-assaults-women/

“Words are not sexual assault,” Loudon replied. “What is sexual assault is what Hillary Clinton did to the women her husband absolutely, factually–”

“Hillary Clinton sexually assaulted the women?” a puzzled Lemon interjected.

...

“When she paid a $100,000 to malign the women by hiring a private investigator to dig up bad stuff on these women,” she insisted. “Why is that not some sort of assault on woman? Tell me that.”

It seems to me, they don't realize that words like "sexual assault", "bigot", "racist" and "liar" are specific accusations, not insults.

Trump regurgitates all the old hate radio themes, with his own, personal touch of insane.

"“When she paid a $100,000 to malign the women by hiring a private investigator to dig up bad stuff on these women,” she insisted. “Why is that not some sort of assault on woman? Tell me that.” "

Donald Trump hired investigators (he claimed) to dig up the President's birth certificate, how is that not "assault" under this definition? Oh, and I bet Trump has people working to dig up dirt on Clinton too...

I have seen her a couple of times this week.

I googled her and read that she is a Tea Party nut who makes Michelle Bachman seem reasonable.
