Speaking to CNN’s Christiane Amanpour on Tuesday, Hillary Clinton dismissed comparisons of the sexual misconduct allegations against her husband, former President Bill Clinton, and those against President Trump.
“Well, there’s a very significant difference and that is the intense, long-lasting, partisan investigation that was conducted in the 90s,” Clinton said. “If the Republicans, starting with President Trump on down want a comparison, they should welcome such an investigation themselves.”
Clinton was presumably referring to the investigations regarding a sexual harassment claim by Paula Jones and Clinton’s affair with intern Monica Lewinsky. Clinton was impeached after allegedly lying under oath about his affair with Lewinsky.
Juanita Broaddrick’s claim that Clinton raped her was not investigated.
“Bill had to be incredibly strong, first to be elected, then to be reelected, and to survive,” Clinton told CNN. “He really believes Democrats have to be tougher and have to stand up to the bullying and intimidation.”

Juanita Broaddrick has long alleged that Bill Clinton raped her and she has been very vocal in reminding the public about the alleged assault. Recently, she threw support behind Judge Kavanaugh, saying, “I believe this man,” while denouncing the full-court press to discredit him with allegations of sexual misconduct as a “travesty of justice.”
Broaddrick has surely been a thorn in the side of the Clintons. Here she shuts down Hillary.
