Time to rewind to the controversial year that is 2016. when Hillary Clinton was running for US President, it was known that her husband, former US President Bill Clinton was along for the ride. However, a new bombshell book alleged that there may have been issues in their relationship during that time, and it mainly consisted of Bill talking smack about his wife’s campaign.
Ryan Grim’s new bombshell book The Squad: AOC and the Hope of a Political Revolution claimed Hillary’s husband Bill roasted her campaign.
“To the extent that the campaign tactic moved the needle at all, it likely pushed moderate voters paying only marginal attention to the campaign towards Sanders, who spoke like a normal person while Clinton began ascending into what her ally James Carville would later call ‘faculty lounge speak,'” Grim wrote in the newly released book.
He added, “Former President Bill Clinton, surveying the landscape and the ham-handed efforts at identity politics was bereft, lamenting to a longtime friend in the fall of 2016 that Hillary’s campaign ‘could not sell p—- on a troop train.'”
It’s never good hearing that a spouse isn’t supportive of their partner, especially when they’re going after their dreams. We know politics can get very messy with different ideologies and different ways people want to go about it, but this bombshell claim definitely paints a new light on how the Clintons acted during Hillary’s 2016 campaign. (We’re unsure if he had the same sentiments in her other presidential campaigns, but this one comment is quite jarring).
For those who don’t know, Hillary and Bill have been married since 1975 after meeting at Yale. They share one daughter named Chelsea, who was born on Feb 27, 1980.
