Many progressives and Democrats regard this as a tedious and unnecessary topic. TWhat’s to discuss? Sure, Bill Clinton is a lifelong philanderer, an American Don Juan. Poor Hillary, they suggest, is the victim of these escapades. Even so, she loves Bill and has come to accept—or at least endure—his multiple infidelities. She has accepted the “stand by your man” role. But so what? It’s all in the family! The rest of us should butt out. It’s their business, not ours. According to the progressive Democratic narrative, Hillary is run- ning because she wants to be the first woman president. She will symbol- ize—and dedicate herself to—the cause of women’s rights. The Hillary progressives want us to envision is the Hillary who went to the United Nations Conference on Women in Beijing in 1995 and gave a stirring speech on women’s rights. That, progressives say, is her actual record; what does any of this personal stuff have to do with Hillary’s qualifica- tions to be president? 193 194 HILLARY’S AMERICA Hillary herself supported this narrative in an interesting 1979 inter- view, uncovered by Buzzfeed, in which she addressed the topic of her marriage to Bill. “We have, for me, an excellent marriage. I’m not sure that it would suit other people . but I’m not sure that any marriage doesn’t have their own particular kinds of strains, and each couple has to work out an accommodation for whatever reasons there may be. So we’ve worked out ours and we’re very happy and I just hope that other people can work out their strains as well as we have.”2 So there you have it. The Clintons are just another normal couple, working out “strains.” But as anyone with a brain has probably figured out already, these are all clever misstatements of the issue. In fact, they are part of the progressive Democratic cover-up for Hillary. Don’t be surprised to see Hillary on the same page; Hillary has always been the original author of the script for that cover-up. This chapter is not about what the Clintons do in bed, but about what Bill does to other women and how Hillary enables Bill’s predatory and abusive behavior, while her feminist and media accomplices cheer her on. The real story is one of horrible abuses of power and even more horrible cover-ups: Hillary’s cover-up for Bill, and the progressive cover- up for Hillary’s role in covering up for Bill. Ultimately this is not a chapter about sex, but rather the long Dem- ocratic tradition of using power to rape, abuse, and intimidate women and then—if the crimes are exposed—to blame the victims and destroy their lives and reputations. For a party that claims to be a party of justice and women’s rights, this pattern of abuse—now carried on jointly and collaboratively by the Clintons—is more than a cruel irony. BERNIE’S RAPE FANTASIES Consider, for example, the rape fantasies of Bernie Sanders. These have been grossly under-reported in the media, although they were ini- tially revealed in the leftist magazine Mother Jones. The magazine found a 1972 essay that Sanders published in a Vermont newspaper. THE ENABLER 195 Titled, “Man and Woman,” the essay begins with Sanders discours- ing on his male take on the subject of rape. “A man goes home and masturbates his typical fantasy. A woman on her knees, a woman tied up, a woman abused.” Then Sanders turns to the female perspective on the same subject. “A woman enjoys intercourse with her man—as she fantasizes being raped by 3 men simultaneously.” Sanders then raises a broader issue, “Do you know why the news- papers with articles like ‘Girl 12 raped by 14 men’ sell so well? To what in us are they appealing?” Sanders concludes that “women adapt themselves to fill the needs of men, and men adapt themselves to fill the needs of women.” Imagine the furor if a Republican presidential candidate had published anything like this! The underlying message conveyed by Sanders’s essay seems to be that Democrats are expected to be perverts. As with Clinton, we are not talking about fantasies involving sex but rather about fantasies involving rape. Now in some puerile sense Sanders in this article is taking a stance against male and female sex roles. But rather than discuss those roles, he makes his point through the medium of rape fantasies. While Sanders attributes the fantasy to a prototypical man and woman, it seems obvious that he is writing about his own fantasies—what he thinks about women, and what he thinks women think about men. Rape isn’t just about sex; it is also about control and dominance. Sanders’s rape fantasies involve far more than having women at his imaginative disposal. They also involve controlling and subjugating those women. Symbolically, this is represented in the idea of tying them up, getting them down on their knees, and of course by the coercion implied in the rape itself. For Sanders, as for Bill Clinton, there is a certain progressive pleasure in having the power to dominate other people. In an obvious attempt to protect Sanders, Mother Jones ran a cutline below his essay, saying nothing about the subject of rape fantasies and simply noting, “This 1972 Sanders essay, published in an alternative newspaper, reflected his affinity for Sigmund Freud.”3 In the same vein, 196 HILLARY’S AMERICA mainstream progressive publications have given cursory notice to Sand- ers’s rape imaginings or simply ignored them altogether. The Sanders campaign dismissed the essay as a “dumb attempt at dark satire” that “in no way reflects his views or record on women.” Yet there was nothing satirical about Sanders’s essay. And undoubtedly the article did reflect, at the very least, Sanders’s view of women at the time that he wrote it. The question Sanders evades is not whether he supports or advocates rape—he obviously doesn’t—but whether the underlying mindset of control and subjugation that produced his article is the same mindset that he has today. Vice President Joe Biden, we learn, has a habit of swimming nude in his pool. By itself there is nothing wrong with this, except that Biden apparently has female Secret Service agents assigned to him. They have complained about feeling uncomfortable. Biden doesn’t care. What his wife thinks about his practice has never been reported.4 Biden may have gotten the idea for nude bathing from Lyndon Johnson, who was known to sit nude by the White House pool and dictate letters to his female secretaries. Johnson would also have women brought into the White House and have sex with them while his wife slept in the next room. He also did this on Air Force One, locking him- self and his paramours in his stateroom, while Lady Bird was on board. One of Johnson’s secret service agents recalls that Johnson would show his penis to reporters, even female reporters. His motive, the agent reports, was that “he was proud of his organ.” Historian Robert Dallek writes about LBJ “urinating in the sink,” “inviting people into his bath- room,” and even boasting that he had had more women than JFK.5 John F.
