"If Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are on a boat together — if they're on a boat together and it sinks, who survives? America!" local attorney David Chavez said during introductory remarks at a Donald Trump rally in New Mexico Tuesday evening, to uproarious applause.
His jokes didn't stop there. During his five-minute introduction at the rally, Chavez repeatedly hit on Trump's likely competition in the general election, urging voters to consider Bill Clinton's previous sexual misconduct in making the choice between Trump and Hillary Clinton. "Even Bill Clinton chose other women, so you should, too," Chavez said.
