Hillary Clinton took time in New Hampshire Monday to remind voters that while Donald Trump's comments about Megyn Kelly have been next-level offensive, the rest of the Republicans are no different on women's issues when it comes to policy,
reports Anne Gearan.
"What Donald Trump said about Megyn Kelly is outrageous, but what the rest of the Republicans are saying about all women is also outrageous," Clinton said. "They brag about slashing health-care funding, they say they would force women who have been raped to carry their rapist's child." [...]
"What Marco Rubio said has as much of an impact in terms of where the Republican Party is today as anybody else on that stage, and it is deeply troubling." [...]
"When one of their major candidates, a much younger man, the senator from Florida, says there should be no exceptions for rape and incest, that is as offensive and as troubling a comment as you can hear from a major candidate running for the presidency," Clinton said.
Clinton's comments Monday build
on the jabs she aimed at Jeb! last week over women's health. It's interesting that she singled out Rubio over his GOP rival Scott Walker—both men bragged about about their "
no exceptions" abortion stance at last week's debate. Perhaps, the Clinton campaign views Rubio as a more likely rival in the general election, whether as a VP or presidential nominee.
