Trump on Clinton: 'I don't even think she's loyal to Bill'

Source: Politico

Donald Trump on Saturday appeared to accuse Hillary Clinton of cheating on her husband, former President Bill Clinton.

“Hillary Clinton’s only loyalty is to her financial contributors and to herself. I don’t even think she’s loyal to Bill, if you want to know the truth,” the Republican nominee told the crowd at a rally in Manheim, Pennsylvania.

“And really, folks, why should she be, why should she be.”

Trump indicated earlier Saturday that he is considering launching a wider attack on his opponent on Bill Clinton’s sex scandals before and during his time as president. It’s the first time he’s intimated that the Democratic nominee could have been unfaithful to her husband.

"Can you name one time when Hillary Clinton has been disloyal to Bill Clinton". It would probably give Trump a Gary Johnson moment.

Sun Oct 2, 2016, 03:43 AM

"I don't think she's even loyal to Bill" means he doesn't have to provide any facts. He always does this: "many people say...I don't know if it's true, but that's what they're saying." "I don't know for sure, but here's what I think..." "I may be wrong, but from my observations..."

No facts needed. Imply, and spread the lie, let it do the damage, yet maintain that "deniability" (I never said I knew this for a fact...). If you did ask him to name one time, he'd say, "Hey, I'm just saying, from what I've seen, she's loyal to her financial partners, not to Bill..." He'll slip and wiggle and deflect away from ever providing facts.

But this sort of "imply" something and let it spread trick won't work this time. The evidence to the contrary is all over the place for everyone to see. So, if you're not a trumpbot, there's no reason to believe this lie and spread it. You either know it's not true, or don't believe its true given what YOU have seen of their partnership with your own eyes.

Looks like Trump is trying to resurrect all of Hillary's greatest hits...at once. I'm sure his Trumpbots can keep track of them, but to the media and regular viewers (i.e. Those who were giving him pass after pass up till now), he'd finally sounding like he's gone completely and irredeemably loopy.

Rather than chasing after his innuendo about Hillary as they've always done before when he pointed and said, "Look! Hillary scandal!" they're focused on him and his antics. Talk about epic fail.

From the vary first of Trump's candidacy, I observed 2 personal characteristics that he's exhibited over and over. And those are incompetence and vulgarity. During his entire candidacy, he has continued to show us that there are no depths of vulgarity to which he will not stoop. Really quite amazing. I think much of the fascination with Trump is of the sort that entices people to pay good money to enter the freak tent at the carnival to see all the monstrosities, living and dead. His supporters certainly seem to gobble it up. So the question is asked, how low can he go?

For two solid decades, they've tried to smear her with anything they could possibly dig up. NONE OF IT has amounted to anything. Don't you think her screwing around would have come to light long, long ago?

No, Trump is saying this because he literally has nothing else in his bag of cheap tricks. Other than insults, which is how he got this far to begin with.

You are the LAST person on this earth to lecture ANYONE regarding their marriage. The last time I checked, you married THREE times over the past 40 years, while HRC has stuck by her husband during the same time period, through some very difficult times.

Let us not forget that Trump is an all-round pervert, who has an unhealthy obsession with younger women, and even said that he'd date his own daughter if he could. Sicko.
