Hillary Clinton’s back in the spotlight again after referring to Trump as a “creep” on her book tour.
Given all the women her husband sexually assaulted on his way to, and in, the White House, perhaps she’s just projecting her feelings for Bill on Trump.
Citizen Newt, the Making of a Reagan Conservative is a new biography by Craig Shirley on the former Speaker.
And while the book focuses on Gingrich, The Washington Examiner says it “is also a well-told and engaging history of recent Washington politics, including the Clinton White House.”
Paul Bedard writes:
“Everybody knew somebody who had a story about Clinton grabbing or groping a woman,” Shirley wrote in Citizen Newt, provided to Secrets in advance of its August 29 release.
“The astonishing thing was not just that he got away with it, repeatedly, without being sued, but that Hillary put up with it, as did the American people. But Clinton had perfected the talent of ‘getting away with it’ since his childhood. He could, as they say, charm the pants off of you. Or her,” he penned on page 357 of the book published by Thomas Nelson Press, a branch of HarperCollins Christian Publishing Inc.
He referenced an American Spectator story about how Arkansas troopers “essentially acted as pimps for Clinton,” and how, according to Time, the then-Arkansas governor would sometimes return home to an angry wife who would just yell.
Wrote Shirley: “Time magazine called him a ‘reckless, obsessive womanizer.’ If Hillary was awakened in the wee hours by her glandular husband, according to Time’s report, she would greet him with a ‘mouthful of four-letter words.'”
Or worse. After noting how Paula Jones made the first official charges of sexual harassment against Clinton, Shirley wrote, “Jokes even made the rounds about impeachment, and there always seemed to be fresh stories of discord in the White House. Hillary threw a lamp at Bill. Hillary Clinton threw an ashtray at Bill. Hillary threw obscenities at Bill.”
Bedard notes the book ends with Newt’s election as Speaker so it doesn’t delve into Clinton’s well-noted affairs, like that of his White House Intern, Monica Lewinsky, which led to his impeachment in the House.
While Hillary is lobbing accusations at Trump, this book breathes new life into stories Hillary would rather just go away.
