The former democrat president is known for being creepy. But this takes the cake.
And Bill Clinton’s disturbing comments about this female GOP candidate has voters shellshocked.
Bill Clinton Sparks Controversy Over Comments About Kari Lake In Arizona Senate Race
During a recent campaign stop in Arizona, former President Bill Clinton stirred debate after referring to Republican Senate candidate Kari Lake as “physically attractive.”
Clinton was in the state to campaign for Vice President Kamala Harris and Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ), who is vying for a Senate seat against Lake. His remarks, which contrasted the two candidates, have sparked controversy across political circles.
Clinton framed the Arizona Senate race as a contest between two very different figures. He lauded Gallego for overcoming challenging circumstances and making something of his life, while characterizing Lake as someone more focused on the theatrics of politics.
“You got a person that grew up under sometimes challenging circumstances, who made something of his life running against someone who is physically attractive, but believes that politics is a performance art, and where, like J.D. Vance, she has to be prost[r]ate before the master,” Clinton stated.

Kari Lake has not directly responded to Clinton’s comments on X (formerly Twitter). However, she did repost a statement from Christy Kelly, who called Clinton’s words “s*xist and dehumanizing.” Kelly criticized the former president for reducing Lake to “a cheap stereotype.”
In addition to his remarks on Lake, Clinton commented on Vice President Harris, acknowledging that she faces a tough political climate. He remarked that Harris is “extremely vulnerable” despite efforts to win over undecided voters.
Clinton pointed to ongoing “crazy attacks” against her as a reason for her precarious position. “What they think of her largely depends on what they think of President Biden,” Clinton said. He added that Republicans have been focused on how best to attack Harris.
Clinton’s recent campaign activities have not been free from controversy. Earlier this month, he attempted to link the tragic death of Georgia college student Laken Riley to former President Donald Trump, claiming that Riley’s death “probably wouldn’t have happened” if all illegal immigrants had been properly vetted.
Riley’s suspected k*ller, Jose Antonio Ibarra, had crossed the border in 2022 before being released into the U.S.
During his Arizona visit, Clinton also took aim at Trump’s refusal to debate Vice President Harris again, despite previously touting “macho” rhetoric. Trump has consistently stated that he will not engage in another debate with Harris.
While a rematch between Trump and Harris is unlikely, Harris recently held a CNN town hall, a performance that faced its own criticism.
Some, like former Obama adviser David Axelrod, referred to her responses as “word salad city.” Others, such as the Washington Examiner’s Kaylee McGhee White, drew comparisons to Trump when Harris spoke about the importance of legal immigration.
With Election Day just around the corner, polls suggest that the outcome in key swing states, including Arizona, North Carolina, and Georgia, remains unpredictable.
Recent data shows that some of these states could tilt in Trump’s favor in the Electoral College, adding further intensity to the closing days of the campaign.
