Ben Carson defends Trump over Bill Clinton ‘rape’ attack

Published



Ben Carson defended Donald Trump’s recent comments about Bill Clinton being involved in “rape” and Hillary Clinton being an “enabler” of the former president’s improprieties.

In an interview with the Washington Examiner, Carson argued that Trump’s Wednesday attack on Bill Clinton was part of him educating younger voters who aren’t fully aware of his past. He also said that while it wasn’t what he would have done as a candidate, it’s a “very strange election cycle,” noting that what he did in his campaign are “not the things that win.”
