Donald Trump criticized Hillary Clinton at a Eugene, Oregon rally on Friday, suggesting she had a hand in her husband Bill's affair with then-White House intern Monica Lewinsky CNN reports.
"She's been the total enabler. She would go after these women and destroy their lives," Trump said. "She was an unbelievably nasty, mean enabler, and what she did to a lot of those women is disgraceful."
The presumptive Republican presidential nominee employed the attack Friday as a defense of his own record on women, which Clinton, the Democratic presidential frontrunner, has repeatedly slammed.
