Why did B. Clinton feel he needed to apologize to BLM?

[OldLady]

I saw the little clip they've been playing on all the news shows, and what Bill Clinton said to the Black Lives Matter protesters was perfectly logical and not disrespectful, imo.
I would be interested in knowing what he said that was so wrong. I heard the interaction happened over ten minutes, so maybe some other parts went over the line, I don't know.

Here's the link to the video, in the off chance you haven't seen it.

He has to apologize because he's running for his third term and almost forgot that he has to remain political in order to succeed.

Oh, I'm sure all kinds of shit rained down on him for that one.

That's okay. He was thinking it, he said it, he was right to say it, he just forgot to put his PC Filter™ on for a moment.

Hey, it happens.

Probably the first time since Monica Hillary has gone after Bill with a rolling pin.

after the cook showed her where it was kept

It was a communication breakdown. He didn't realize Black Lives Matter Protesters were his wife's voting bloc. He should visit home more often.

He grew some Trump sized fucking balls and spoke the uncensored truth. Good for him.

 

[aris2chat]

He was right when he got upset. He should not have to apologize.

Long time since I was actually glad to hear him speak out.

 

[OldLady]

Okay. I'm a puzzled white person. Added a few more tags. Can anyone help me see where he went wrong in the eyes of anyone?

 

[Stephanie]

lol, he can't piss them off, Hillary needs to pander to them for a few more months for their votes. I was waiting to see Bill on his knees with tears streaming down his face wailing how: he's so sorry he raised his voice at them.

what snakes Democrat politicians are. they never stand on any principle.

 

[blastoff]

Just wonder how many variations of the f-word came spilling out of Hillary's fat yap once she got the news? Doubt Willie had to bother with her propers when he got home next.

Did you say, puzzled white person....?

The Clintons will have to get the fire hoses out on Election Day to get that black vote.

doesn't sound any different than a conservative. hmmmmmmmm

He has to apologize because he's running for his third term and almost forgot that he has to remain political in order to succeed.

Nope, dementia

That would explain his absent-mindedness.

I didn't know BLM was supporting her or Bernie. They are demonstrating against them at the rallies, aren't they? Come to think of it, who WILL they actually vote for?

Lady, in reading responses to your question, it is clear how deep in division we are. It appears that all right wingers feel Democrats all are motivated by the dark side, and sadly most Democrats respond with bitterness. And it is a fearful sight to anyone who entertains wishes of a restoration to e pluribus unum. Hurtful hating words spoken cannot be unheard and I fear this generation will have to die off before national unity is restored, IF it can be done. McConnell's 1/20/09 Mission Statement has become the norm, and I fear Democrats, rather than try to heal, will simply re-instate that divisive tone.

I agree, bullwinkle, that rather than look for areas where we can agree, we foster division and turn our opponents into monsters in our minds. I can see that BLM and Bill Clinton both were somewhat guilty of that the other day. Kind of off topic, I think we have social media to thank for the hurtful hating divisiveness that has taken over--we allow ourselves to say things online that we would NEVER say face to face to a neighbor or coworker, and it has shaped our perspectives on 'the other side.' I don't see social media going away, though, and I doubt if waiting for all of us lamebrains to die will solve the problem. More are coming, every day. Maybe adjusting to this new, anonymous form of communication will improve over time?
