Let's start with Trump.
With her defeat all but certain, Hillary Clinton struggled in 2008 to explain why she refused to concede the Democratic nomination fight to Barack Obama. “We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California,” she.
The response was universally harsh. Her team quickly explained that Clinton meant to note simply that this was not the first primary campaign to stretch into the summer, not to suggest that Obama might be assassinated. She apologized to the Kennedy family.
The incident showed how desperate Clinton was to win, how ham-fisted she could be as a candidate, and how far she would stretch to parse a political gaffe.
Donald Trump’s defenders are dredging up the Kennedy quote to defend a far more grotesque comment their candidate made Tuesday.
