Chelsea Clinton’s Response To Trump’s Remarks About Her Dad’s Infidelity

Everyone knows that Bill has had a little side action in years gone by, but Donald thinks he deserves a medal for not bringing it up mid-debate.

The Hillary versus Donald debate has been discussed at length (our summation HERE), and if you’re anything like me you’re more than happy to move on and let those memories gather dust.

It’s a little different if Donald Trump talked about your father’s infidelities with a ‘sorry not sorry’ wave of his tiny hands, saying how proud of himself he was that he hadn’t brought up Bill and Monica’s soiree back in the day.

He did this moments after stepping off stage, just by the way, so he may as well have just belted it out mid-debate.

A brief clip of his post-debate ramblings:

Anyway, Chelsea has heard it all before, and in an interview post debate with Cosmo she spoke about the incident:

Well, my reaction to that is just what my reaction has been kind of every time Trump has gone after my mom or my family, which is that it’s a distraction from his inability to talk about what’s actually at stake in this election and to offer concrete, comprehensive proposals about the economy, or our public school system, or debt-free college, or keeping our country safe and Americans safe here at home and around the world.

And candidly, I don’t remember a time in my life when my parents and my family weren’t being attacked, and so it just sort of seems to be in that tradition, unfortunately. And what I find most troubling by far are Trump’s — and we talked about this when you interviewed me the night before the Iowa caucus — are Trump’s continued, relentless attacks on whole swaths of our country and even our global community: women, Muslims, Americans with disabilities, a Gold Star family. I mean, that, to me, is far more troubling than whatever his most recent screed against my mom or my family [is].

Trump, the racist buffoon who has no plan and no understanding of any of the basic requirements to govern a country, will somehow compete in a neck and neck election race against Hillary on November 8.
