President William J. Clinton was never known his modesty, but in a recent interview with PBS, he really went off the rails.
Alex Burns of the New York Times tweeted shocking excerpts from the segment.
“I think the norms have really changed in terms of what you can do to someone against their will,” Clinton said.

He also gave his opinions on ousted of former Sen. Al Franken (D-MN), who left his post after photos of sexual misconduct surfaced.

“[T]he Franken case, for me, was a difficult case, a hard case,” he said. “But I – maybe I’m just an old fashioned person, but it seemed to me that there were 29 women on “Saturday Night Live” that put out a statement for him and that the first and most fantastic story was called, I believe, into question.”
Earth to Bill Clinton – it was never acceptable to rape. The “rules” have not become more stringent.
The insane level of tone-deafness and unapologetic nature of Clinton’s comments are indefensible. Will the Democrats disavow him?
