Bill Clinton: Trump would return US to ‘Mad Men’ era

Former President Bill Clinton said Tuesday night that Donald Trump would take America back to the 1960s if he were elected and allowed to implement the policies he has promised on the campaign trail.

“We’re gonna have walls,” Clinton told attendees at a St. Petersburg, Fla., rally. “We’re gonna have just what we had 50 years ago, not just economically.”

“If you had watched Mad Men, it was way worse than Mad Men — way worse. And all gay people had to stay off in a closet locked up. Disabled children were only seen for their disabilities, not their abilities. Fifty years ago, they were not in our schools,” Clinton added.

The former Democratic president said Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton is the only candidate suited to unite Americans. Clinton’s fearful message was a pivot from speeches in recent weeks, where he has taken the high road against Trump supporters.
