do you mean like the attacks on George Bush's wife when he was running. The left attacked her for a car accident some 30 or 40 years earlier and she wasnt running for any office.Trump Calls Anthony Weiner a 'Sleazebag' and 'Perv' at Massachusetts Event
This illustrates the true partisan idiocy of Trump and others on the right.At a Massachusetts fundraiser Friday night, Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trumpcontinued his attacks on Democrat Hillary Clinton saying the former Secretary of State has “some very big problems” with her email server.
However, the real estate mogul took things a step further attacking longtime Clinton aide Huma Abedin and her husband, former Congressman Anthony Weiner (D-NY) calling him a “perv."
“Who is Huma married to?,” Trump asked. “One of the great sleazebags of our time. Anthony Weiner.”
Weiner resigned his Congressional seat in 2011, after it was discovered the Democrat took shirtless photos of himself and shared them with women online.
Clinton rep Nick Merrill released a statement saying in part “Donald Trump has spent the summer saying offensive things about women, but there is no place for patently false, personal attacks towards a staff member. He should be ashamed of himself…it’s embarrassing to watch frankly.”
Trump Calls Anthony Weiner a 'Sleazebag' and 'Perv'
Why would Trump think it was beneficial to his campaign to personally attack Anthony Weiner for no logical reason?
Weiner resigned his office and left politics in June 2011, and Trump engages in an unprovoked, unwarranted attack on a private citizen neither holding nor seeking public office.
Just as unwarranted and inane was the attack on the Clinton aide.
This is all we see from most on the reprehensible right – cheap shots and personal attacks, nothing about policy – likely because republicans have little, if anything, to contribute.
or is it different when the democrats play that game
Aw, gee, try to stay focused on the thread topic. It really ain't that hard.
