Tuesday on Fox News Channel’s “America’s Newsroom,” conservative radio host Lars Larson and liberal commentator Leslie Marshall battled over Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump saying Democratic front runner Hillary Clinton’s husband, former president Bill Clinton’s sexual indiscretions are fair game in the 2016 presidential race.
Larson said, “Her husband was impeached for lying to the American public, we worry when there are enablers to those liars. Hillary Clinton has been enabler to her husband, who has been a serial harasser and unindicted rapist on top of that, yes of course it is relevant.”
Marshall said, “I’m in shock, OK. I dont even know where to begin. First of all, it offends me as a woman that even this woman, whose husband is a former president, who is running for the presidency—her husband is not—has to be responsible for his sins in or outside of their marriage, the bedroom, the White House, the Oval Office—absolutely ridiculous. You guys all know my husband is a surgeon. If he is sued for malpractice, which thankfully he never has been, am I responsible? This is absolutely ludicrous. This should be off limits. She is not responsible for the past sins of her husband. What happens within their marriage is private. It is not what the American people care about. It has nothing to do with being president of the United States or running for president of the United States.”
Larson responded, “Let me tell you why it is relevant. Because she has been the defender of Bill Clinton through all of these troubles. She sat down in front of a “60 Minutes” interview and defended him. She has effectively enabled his ongoing behavior. She came to his defense when he was very much in trouble over the allegations against him. And it would have stayed within their marriage if she had not come out and defended him time after time after time to try to cover up or to soft pedal these, as his staff used to call them, bimbo eruptions. She was his enabler.”
