    Q. Have you ever said to any of the state troopers who were on your security detail when you were governor that any woman had, quote, "that come-hither look," close quote?

    A. I might well have done that. That's a phrase I have used. I might well – I don't have a specific recollection of doing it, but it wouldn't surprise me if I'd said that to a trooper.

    Q. What does the phrase "that come-hither look" mean?

    A. It means either in look or dress a sort of a suggestive appearance from the look or dress.

    Q. Sexually suggestive?

    A. Yes.

    If you had a child with Anthony Weiner, would you risk perjuring yourself for Hillary?

    MR. BENNETT: You may ask the question.

    A. The answer to your question, if sexual relations are defined as –

    MR. BENNETT: No, Mr. President

    THE WITNESS: What?

    MR. BENNETT: Go ahead.

    A. That's right, that was upheld by the court. The answer to your question, if the definition is section one there in the first piece of evidence you gave me, is yes.

    Q. On how many occasions?

    A. Once.

    Q. In what year?

    A. 1977.

    Q. Did you ever make sexual advances to Gennifer Flowers after that occasion which did not culminate in sexual relations?

    A. No.

    Q. Did she make sexual advances to you which did not culminate in sexual relations?

    A. Yes. Once.

    Q. When was that?

    A. I don't remember. Sometime after she came back, she invited me to come and see her.

    Not at all.

    Honestly, the criticism has been both lazy, and overthrow top.

    It also follows the same play book used in every campaign against Republicans. They're some combination of sum and racist.

    The point, which sails over your head, is that the Times article was representative of a lack of consistency in classification. Millions of people could read that article, yet, it was classified. Other documents, which should have been classified, weren't. That was her argument.

    As for the "discussion", she wasn't participating in it. Some diplomats made some vaguely worded emails discussing it because they weren't near a classified computer and her aides forwarded the, to her. The drone strikes that you're so worried about, while classified by the U.S., are also known to millions of people around the world. Not a huge secret.

    While I don't find politics funny, it is, I'll admit, quite amusing to see how you cling to this issue because your entire party has no accomplishments to point to from the last 25 years that can convince the average non-affiliated voter to vote for them.

    It's dem strategy, and Wolfson gives away the secret.

    If Jeb Bush or John Kasich were the nominee, the narrative would be that they were dumb, mean, racist, or some combination of the three.

    Hmm, if only there were a way for Republican candidates to avoid being accused of racism ... Like, if they could somehow avoid sponsoring legislation that disenfranchises minority voters, or if people could just understand why they want to fly Confederate battle flags, or if the press would stop reporting on the racist things they say ... If only ...

    Everything Trump has said, or done, in the last 35 years has either been misunderstood or taken out of context. Or is Obama's fault.
