Bill Clinton Brushes Off Donald Trump, Saying 'Attempts to Take the Election' Are Nothing New

By BRAD MIELKE

NASHUA, N.H. — Jan 4, 2016, 1:33 PM ET

WATCH Bill Clinton Brushes Off Trump Attacks on the Campaign Trail
l

Former president Bill Clinton took the high road this morning in his first public reaction to Donald Trump since the GOP front-runner began attacking him as a "sexist.”

Asked by ABC News whether his sexual history was “fair game” in the campaign, Clinton said “the Republicans have to decide who they want to nominate. I'm trying to tell the Democrats and the country why I think Hillary would be the best president.”

“I think there's always attempts to take the election away from the people,” he continued.

He declined to elaborate on any of Trump’s claims.

Clinton spoke to just over 700 supporters at Nashua Community College as he hit the campaign trail for the first time in 2016, touting Hillary Clinton as the only candidate who could restore America to prosperity. ................................

I had a friend who married an older rich man for the money. She said she closed her eyes doing the deed and imagined she was with someone else. I bet trumpsters wife does the same thing.

“I think there's always attempts to take the election away from the people,” he continued.

It's so good I had to say it twice.
Trump can't get to Clinton, but Bill can always get to trump.
