Quote:

Gennifer Flowers, who revealed a sexual relationship with Bill Clinton in the 1990s, will reportedly accept Donald Trump's invitation to attend the first presidential debate between Trump and Hillary Clinton. Flowers's assistant confirmed the decision to BuzzFeed's Andrew Kaczynski Saturday afternoon.

The decision was the latest play in a bizarre bit of gamesmanship between the Clinton and Trump campaigns over the debate. Clinton's camp confirmed this week that they would invite billionaire mogul Mark Cuban, a Trump antagonist, to the debate.

The two billionaires, who have both been reality show stars and larger-than-life personas, have feuded regularly in recent years. At a July campaign stop for Clinton, Cuban called Trump "bats--- crazy."

On Saturday, he taunted Trump on Twitter:

And Trump tweeted that he might invite Flowers -- first in a tweet that misspelled her name as "Jennifer," which was deleted within minutes, quickly followed by a repeat. Both tweets also mentioned Cuban's "Apprentice"-like TV show which was canceled in 2004.

Shortly after, Buzzfeed confirmed that she had accepted the invitation -- however, several hours later, the Trump campaign still had yet to respond with a confirmation that Trump actually planned to bring Flowers to the Monday debate.

Flowers said during Bill Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign that the two of them had engaged in a lengthy affair over a dozen years. The allegation, which Clinton denied at the time, threatened to ruin his campaign.

In 1998, Bill Clinton acknowledged under oath having a sexual encounter with Flowers, though he disputed details of her account.

I doubt that anyone would disagree except for the bats of course. They insult each other by calling their antagonist Trump Crazy.

I hope he realises he won't get any share of camera time in this case, they will be totally focused on the two women.

Bill Clinton’s Worst Nightmare Just Became Hillary’s! See How Bill’s Victims Just RUINED Hillary’s Chances!

September 26, 2016

For a long time the world, ignored Bill’s atrocities, but now that Hillary is running for president, his skeletons are all coming out to haunt him and Hillary.

You can only try to hide something for so long before it will be discovered.

Bill Clinton’s ghosts are going to be the downfall of Hillary Clinton. Not taking into account her own multitude of problems that are causing her rapid decline in the polls.

Kathleen Willey was one of the first of Bill’s victims to come out and speak out against the former president and her courage has brought out several others.

Willey was a White House aide during the Clinton administration and famously accused Bill Clinton of sexual assault. She is joined by accusers Juanita Broaddrick and Paula Jones in commenting on the audience of tomorrow’s debate.

Willey had more to say in an interview.

Most of us are well known and our stories have been repeated several times over the years, but what concerns me the most are the voices of my sisters who are still afraid to come out of the darkness. I have communicated with a number of them and they are still terrified of publicly sharing their experiences with the Clintons.

The real story here is not one of our presence in the front row at any of these debates, but the unhindered lust for power that the Clintons have displayed for decades. Hillary Clinton has lied, cheated and stolen our lives from us. People have died in her wake of deceit.

We could fill the entire audience. I would like to see the day when these women can step into the light and share their stories of brutality, terror and intimidation without the kind of fear of intimidation and recrimination that we have experienced for far too many years.

Regarding whether she would attended the debate if asked, Willey decided,

“I would refrain for now. Let her do herself in on her own.”

I don't recall any positives during the Slick Willy years, if not for the Congress it would have looked a lot like the Obama years. I remember he squandered Military assets without replacing them. Most of our cruise missiles were fired on insignificant targets and not replaced. Some attacks were strictly to take the Medias attention from his "bimbo eruptions" and because of it innocent people died. He got his so called Assault weapons ban but thanks to a Republican majority in Congress it had a ten year sunset clause.

Yeah, it's not like social issues are of any importance to discuss.
