Robby Soave and Nomiki Konst weigh in on former President Bill Clinton's misstep in Georgia while campaigning for Kamala Harris.
Former President Bill Clinton has resurfaced. Now he was sent by the Harris campaign to rural
Georgia to use his Clintonian wiles to sway voters to the Democratic ticket. Let's look
at what the Trump war room account on X posted. You had a case in Georgia not very long ago
didn't you? They made an ad about about a young woman who'd been killed by an immigrant.
Yeah well if they'd all been properly vetted that probably wouldn't have happened.
But if they're all properly vetted and that doesn't happen and America is not having enough
babies to keep our populations up. So we need immigrants that have been vetted to do work.
There wouldn't be a problem and he couldn't keep people all torn up and upset.
But the Harris campaign responded saying it had been quote deceptively edited. Let's watch the
full clip. And on the immigration thing she's the only candidate who has actually endorsed a bill
that would hold down immigration in any given year to a certain point and then make sure we
gave people a decent place to live. We didn't design divide people from their children and we
did total vetting before people got in. Now Trump killed the bill. The bill was written being written
by senior Republicans in the Senate and he killed the bill. Why? You had a case in Georgia not very
long ago didn't you? They made an ad about about a young woman who'd been killed by an immigrant.
Yeah well if they'd all been properly vetted that probably wouldn't have happened.
But if they all properly vetted and that doesn't happen and America is not having
enough babies to keep our populations up. So we need immigrants that have been vetted to do work.
Harris has vowed to revive the immigration bill with stricter guardrails and make it law if
elected. A version of the bill came to the floor this year but failed to pass the GOP majority.
Riley was killed in February of this year. Now the Trump campaign said in a statement Kamala Harris
claimed the border was secure just days after Laquan Riley's illegal immigrant killer Jose Ibarra
crossed into the nation. Ibarra was caught at the border and then released into the country
by Kamala Harris. President Trump will secure the border and he will stop catch and release.
So I don't know if Bill Clinton is doing a very good job there as a surrogate for the for the
campaign the Kamala Harris campaign making some of the points maybe inadvertently that
Republicans are making. Actually I think that's the brilliance of this is that I mean everyone
loves Bill Clinton. I like I'm not a Clinton policy fan but he just has a way with people
that everybody should study right left center doesn't matter. I mean he has a sexually aggressive
way with people. Correct correct and he has also got this way especially with working class white
voters. Remember he was called Bubba and think about that he had that trucker hat on. I don't
know we've ever there's an old rule you never put a hat on a politician but it works for him.
He's got the trucker hat on he's speaking in the south he knows how to speak to people not only is
speaking to voters that need to come out and vote the base but he knows because he's media savvy
and he studied Ronald Reagan for years that that clip whatever it was even if it was taken out of
context the Republican Party boosted a clip of Bill Clinton saying that immigration issues need
to be taken seriously and then also saying talking about how we are not producing enough babies in
America which leans in on the IVF issue. So thank you so much for Republican Party because you took
our best messenger Bill Clinton of probably the modern political history and you have boosted
his video over and over and over again inadvertently thinking that you're attacking him when
what people are seeing is Bill Clinton talking to them in a persuasive way about the issues that
supposedly Republicans are trying to fear murder on. I thought it was brilliant. I don't understand
the choice to use Bill Clinton at all at this point. I mean Dems can't have it both ways especially
when they're making the you know sexual misconduct argument against Donald Trump everything that he
has allegedly done bringing that all up all the time. Bill Clinton's history on this is is appalling
you know it's actually. He didn't rape anybody. Bill Clinton? He didn't rape anybody. He was never tried for rape.
Well okay. The accusations against him concerning what is her name I can't think of her
Anita Broderick. Yes that one is very very very bad. It's a very compelling story.
You know again. She's a far right wing pundit now and conveniently came out. Oh she's a right
wing pundit now so her her sexual her very compelling story of sexual misconduct of being
it's not just sexual misconduct of full-on rape can just be discarded. I mean what are the rules
here then? Can't we throw out anything against? Okay we're gonna have a conversation this is a whole
different conversation and I have a lot of criticisms. Dems should just retire Bill Clinton
because he has tainted goods because of all of these things that he was accused of. He was never
convicted. Are we gonna go back to Ken Starr? Are we gonna play this game and pull up the Starr report?
I mean I don't like what happened to him and I feel horrible for Monica Lewinsky and how it ruined
her life for 20 years and she's come back and she speaks about it. She's also gonna vote for Kamala
Harris by the way. She also voted for Hillary Clinton. Well Monica Lewinsky was it was I mean
it was still bad it was a workplace it wasn't I mean you can argue the consent dynamics or whatever
it's very different than any of Broderick which is very very bad. I mean of course there were power
dynamics at play. With that being said in 2016 Hillary Clinton notably Robbie Mook her former
campaign manager decided to. Evil Robbie. Sorry I'm trying to be serious here. Robbie Mook decided to
put Bill Clinton to the side. When Bill Clinton said hey maybe we should have an office in
Wisconsin and when Bill Clinton said we really got to focus on those white working-class voters
in the Rust Belt. Robbie Mook was like no we're good we're good thanks Bill go sit aside. He was
the best campaigner and they put him on the sidelines. Now does he sometimes say the wrong
thing like every politician? Does he sometimes need a snack? I really think that that like whatever
vegan diet he's on and I'm all about plant-based diets. He sometimes get a little cranky. Sure
there were some clips in 2016 where he was he was snapping at veterans talking about how they
didn't understand foreign policy and you know obviously the veterans were like I lived it.
All politicians have their pluses and minuses but he's still one of the best and most persuasive
folks in politics that can speak to those white working-class voters especially
if Joe Biden isn't able to do so anymore. I think he's just utterly repulsive. He looks
also very bad and very old so I googled what his age is. He's 78. So he is the same age as
Donald Trump who might be the next president. I think Donald Trump looks like he's in a lot
better younger shape than Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton looks considerably younger than the
current president Joe Biden. That man we just saw who looks very very old is three years younger
than the person running our nation right now. Kamala Harris looks great put out her medical
records. The worst thing she has is like a skin allergy. You know Donald Trump should put out his
medical records. He's obese and he has had health issues. I think you should do it. I'm fair and
balanced. I have nothing negative to say about Kamala Harris's health or mental situation. I
have not questioned it once. I just don't agree with her policy. That should not be where our
basis is. Well because there's widespread denial. There was widespread denial of the cognitive
problems of Joe Biden by everyone surrounding him up until he did that debate and it was no
longer possible to pretend that it was fine. Everyone stopped lying about it. Yeah. All right
we've got more to get into today. More Rising coming up next.
