Eric Trump: Bill Clinton may be the worst sexist ‘that ever lived’

Eric Trump on Wednesday defended his father from accusations of sexism, saying former President Bill Clinton is the true sexist.

Trump was discussing the controversy surrounding his father’s comments about former Miss Universe Alicia Machado and her weight on Sean Hannity’s radio program.

Hannity cited various allegations made against Machado and said the media had apparently colluded with Hillary Clinton’s Democratic campaign to attack Donald Trump over the issue.

{mosads}“Seems like another day in the life of the Clintons,” Eric Trump said, as Buzzfeed News reported.

“This is who they are as people. This is who they’ve been for decades and decades. I mean, Hillary’s been a politician longer than I’ve been alive. Kinda hard to believe,” he continued.

“It’s amazing when you hear her talk about sexism and these various claims, which are ridiculous. Aside from obviously Bill, her husband, being maybe the worst that’s ever lived.”

Donald Trump has been on the defensive about his attitude toward women since Clinton brought up some of the GOP’s nominee past derogatory comments during Monday night’s presidential debate.

“One of the worst things he said was about a woman in a beauty contest … and he called this woman ‘Miss Piggy,’ then he called her ‘Miss Housekeeping’ because she was Latina. Donald, she has a name,” Clinton said. 

“Her name is Alicia Machado, and she has become a U.S. citizen, and you can bet she’s going to vote this November.” 

Trump said Tuesday the pageant winner “gained a massive amount of weight, and it was a real problem.” 

Eric Trump on Wednesday also attacked the Clinton Foundation and said the average female executive at the organization makes significantly less than the average male executive.

“I think that very much goes to my father’s point, Sean, which is, you better start practicing what you preach,” Trump said.

“Politicians are all talk, no action, and you can’t live one way in your private life, then speak differently in your public life.”

But Eric Trump said Americans are “very, very smart” and “look through this garbage.”

“I think we’re going to win in a landslide come Nov. 8,” Trump said.
