Even Fox News can’t stomach Trump’s attempts to use Bill Clinton’s sex scandal against Hillary Clinton.

Transcript via Fox News Sunday:

WALLACE: All right. I want to turn to another subject.

Trump had said that he was not going to go after Hillary Clinton and her personal life unless she went after him. That in effect as he likes to say, he would counter punch. But then yesterday out in Washington state, he went off on Clinton about the way she treated the women that Bill Clinton had had an affair with. Let’s put it up.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

TRUMP: She’s married to a man who was the worst abuser of women in the history of politics. Hillary was an enabler and she treated these women horribly. Just remember this. And some of those women were destroyed not by him, but by the way that Hillary Clinton treated them after everything went down.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

WALLACE: First of all, what specifically did Hillary Clinton do to those women?

MANAFORT: Look, this is a clear case. Donald Trump has made it very clear he is not going to allow hypocrisy on the women’s issue. He is not going to let Hillary make the case that he is against women and she is this defender of women’s rights.

I mean, his business empire is he has put many women in leadership positions, gender, race —

(CROSSTALK)

WALLACE: Respectfully, I asked you, what did — what did Hillary Clinton do to those women? He says she destroyed their lives. How?

MANAFORT: I will let him speak to it. The point is that, you know, the history is clear, she’s an enabler in the past, I will let him speak to those issues.

But the point is he made it very clear he was not going to let hypocrisy exist on a women’s issue. He is not anti-women. He is very pro women. He has proven it in his business life and proven it more so than her because he has proven it with actions not words.

And so, for her to go after him on being anti-women, he’s going to go back and talk about some of the things that she did that are less than consistent as far as being pro-women.

Trump’s own strategist couldn’t, or wouldn’t answer the question.

Sarah Palin said that the Bill Clinton’s sex scandal and Trump’s attack didn’t matter. Now, Fox News is demanding to know exactly what Hillary Clinton did.

The use of Bill Clinton’s sex scandal has already backfired on Donald Trump. It is clear that Republicans want nothing to do with how Trump is trying to attack Clinton.

What Trump is going to quickly find out is that the tabloid style attacks that worked for him during the Republican primary won’t be effective in a general election

. It looks like Republicans are already trying to limit the damage that Donald Trump will cause, but it speaks volumes that even Fox News is pushing back on Trump’s attempts to use the Clinton/Lewinsky scandal to win in 2016.
