At a “Get out the Vote” rally in Toledo, Ohio, Saturday night, former president Bill Clinton took the stage to make the pitch for his wife, Democratic presidential frontrunner, Hillary.
“I’m here to ask you to support Hillary for president because we need you. We need you to win here on Tuesday. And if we do it we’ll send a big message to the rest of the country,” said Clinton, according to 13ABC.
As his spiel went on, Clinton was interrupted by a pro-gun advocate who challenged the efficacy of gun-control laws, pointing to Russia as an example, further adding that the Clintons had a communist agenda.
As the agitated crowd began to sound off, Bill asked the audience to stay calm because he didn’t want it “to behave the way the trump people do.” He, according to reports, asked the man to stay and listen to what he had to say on the issue.
But the man left, escorted by security.
“One thing they have in common is they’re all chicken in the end,” Clinton said, to applause.
Later, after the speech, Clinton said he was open to a brief exchange with the pro-gun advocate.
“I was gonna let that young fella talk,” he said, referring to the man. “He was just afraid of letting me answer.”
Clinton was flanked by two pro-gun control advocates, former Arizona congresswoman Gabby Giffords and her husband, retired NASA astronaut Mark Kelly.
Both of them applauded Hillary for her anti-gun agenda at the rally.
“Hillary is tough, Hillary is courageous, and she will fight to make our families safer. In the White House she will stand up to the gun lobby, that is why I’m voting for Hillary,” said Giffords.
“Hillary Clinton is one reason why we have protected and saved so many innocent lives, thousands upon thousands but we need to do better,” added Mark Kelly.
Wait a minute. Hillary, saved lives? I think the families of the victims of the Benghazi attack might take umbrage with that statement.
Hillary Clinton lives in a sanctuary city, NY, how come she as a Senator did not fight to stop this. What about all the illegals in this country that killed Americans and she did nothing. Not one Democrat came out in abolishing these sanctuary cites. Yet Americans and a young women was killed in San Francisco by an illegal who committed numerous felonies. Hillary Clinton has already said she wants to do away with the Second Amendment and if she had her way she would do away with freedom of speech as she has had the IRS and the FBI spy on people who opposed her and were sent to jail. She and Bill are so corrupt, just one example is her e-mails and she should go to jail for numerous felonies she has committed.
What made me mad is Hillary was talking at the Fox News townhall, she made abortion sound like it was a constitutional right that shouldn’t be messed with, but she will mess with my 2nd rights if given a chance.
Who’s business is it to cap anyone’s pay? No how matter how much money another person makes, it does not take money away from anyone else, unless you believe in communism. If people work for a company where the CEO makes 1000 times their income, perhaps they regret not having the same education and talents the CEO possesses, which often include MBAs, CPAs, JDs, and lots of experience. We call that envy, not democracy in a republic.
Well at least ONE person in this thread shouldn’t be ALLOWED TO VOTE…especially since they believe that George H.W. Bush came AFTER clinton!
I think Everybody deserves a chance to make things better for America but how does making the highest office in our country into a laughingstock equate? Now this “Joker” wants us to back his partner, who may be the worse Sec. of State in history, for the POTUS position. Sadly, there are many who will. I submit that all of those who believe in Hillary are the same folks that think Obamacare is the answer to our Health crisis, only black lives matter and that Bruce Jenner was 2015’s Woman of the Year. Is it any wonder that a Ruthless Businessman is leading the polls? At the current rate of Moral decay, there may be NO Americans left come 2076.
Bill Clinton is just another commie that wants to ruin this country.
I seem to recall that no Trump supporters or any GOP candidate supporters have invaded Sanders or Clinton rally’s, no, that action is reserved for the leftist.
The Clinton’s give pond scum a bad name, they are serial liars, they have been involved in the mysterious deaths of so many people it’s hard to remember just how many.
What this country absolutely does NOT need is another Clinton Gun Ban.
Bill is one of the things that is wrong with the thinking of this country.Why is our national pervert considered to be a great person? Why are we considering some one who could not protect people who trusted her with there life for President?She is still a killer even if she is the wife of our national pervert and a female.
Wonder what would be the attitude with the Gabby Giffords shooting is an armed citizen would have dropped the gunman after his first shot ~!?
bill is scum, just like his wife!
Should have been asked his views on cocain,money laundering , murder he ordered, crooked coroners, savings and loan swindles, his backing of the NRA as a governor and stabbing them in the back, woman rights and rape, failed trade deals, religious people he had burned to death , woman holding baby that was shot to death , his involvement in the loss of American manufacturing to China , MONICA, Chelsy not being his. Daughter, their crooked Clinton foundation, why he claims he was a roads scholar. When he was kicked out in a week for rape?
AND hilleries involvement in all of it
Or how Vince Foster shot himself in the back while in the WH and then got in his car without any camera picking up his image as he left the WH and drove across the belt way to a Civil War park and died.
Bill should stick to fondling young interns, on the stage he’s a disaster. And it’s Congress that makes laws, not the President. The fool only signs stuff presented to him, the POTUS has ZERO ability to make laws. He, GWB and BHO need to learn that. If congress wasn’t such a bunch of self indulgent losers, the American people would have nothing to fear. These idiots are dangerous to the Constitution.
It looked like he was being escorted out by Secret Service agents, so how could he have stayed to listen? Bill’s greatest achievement went unnoticed by the vast majority of Americans. He capped executive pay. Of course, when Bush Sr. got into office, he immediately got rid of that, which is why we now have CEO’s making 60 million dollar annual salaries.
Clinton didn’t cap executive pay, Congress attempted to do so with a law he signed in 1993, sadly it was written poorly and has failed. Bush Sr. came before Clinton, and W only signed off on legislation that changed the law from targeting 5 named executive officers per company to four in 2007 (CFOs got exempted). A simple google search reveals all of this from multiple sources like The Washington Post and Propublica
