Everybody's missing the point

on Trump's latest line of attack. He's not blaming Hillary for the transgressions of her husband. He and his surrogates, especially Rudy, are trying to erase Hillary's entire history of fighting for women by saying she did horrible things to her husband's accusers. I heard a bunch of this kind of thing on cable news this morning and there was virtually no pushback on this line of attack, with the anchors letting it go as a given, though ancient history. Even Hillary's supporters had very little to say. I lived through the 90's and I know that Hillary did not try to "destroy" her husband's accusers. But I can't remember the specifics. If anyone can point me to some good recaps of all that, I would appreciate it. This is going to be Trump's most talked about line of attack between now and the next debate and maybe at the next debate as well. I want to know the facts in order to blunt it and I want the anchors to push back based on the facts and I want, especially, Hillary's supporters to push back.

1. If true, it won't work. He's tried the "Hillary's a bigot" shtick, and it failed.

A misogynist cannot question a feminist's credibility.

2. There was never any reputable evidence she did any of that.
