We know Donald Trump has been sexually creepy with women. And now that Republican leaders are jumping ship, he’s desperate. Most conservatives enjoy him trying to hold Bill Clinton accountable for his rape accusations and sexual assault, but did you know he used to actually mock Bill’s victims?

Yes.

The Donald said nothing but nice things about his ol’ buddy Bill and quite horrible things about women like those he held a press conference with before the second presidential debate.

ABC News has all the details:

But if you rewind to 1998, the Republican presidential nominee had a very different view of the 42nd president, defending him as the real “victim” in the wake of the fallout of the Monica Lewinsky scandal and blasting the accusers as “terrible” and “unattractive.”

He also suggested that Clinton should have kept the scandal — which he said “should have been nothing — to himself.”

Days after President Clinton admitted to having an inappropriate relationship with former White House intern Monica Lewinsky, Trump said Clinton was a “victim” and critiqued the physical appearances of various women with whom Clinton had been accused of having extramarital relations at different times.

“It’s like it’s from hell, it’s a terrible group of people,” Trump said in an interview with FOX News’ Neil Cavuto on Aug. 19, 1998.

I didn’t realize he’d spoken so poorly about these women before, calling them a terrible group of people and calling Bill Clinton the victim. But that’s not even the worst part!

Apparently, if these women were supermodels, Trump would be singing a different tune. Don’t believe me? Here’s what he said:

Asked by Cavuto if Clinton’s image as a “quasi-sex symbol” stood to somehow benefit from the alleged extramarital relations, Trump took issue with the characterization.

“I don’t necessarily agree with his victims, his victims are terrible,” Trump said. “He is really a victim himself. But he put himself in that position.”

“The whole group, Paula Jones, Lewinsky, it’s just a really unattractive group. I’m not just talking about physical,” he said.

“Would it be any different if it were a supermodel crowd?” Cavuto then asked.

“I think at least it would be more pleasant to watch,” Trump replied.

Trump went on to call President Bill Clinton “terrific.”

And Trump supporters wonder why we don’t believe the Donald when he promises us conservative Supreme Court justices…
