She said that she’s supporting Donald Trump, lauding him for bringing up Bill Clinton’s cheating and the allegations of sexual assault made against him.

“I’m glad someone did. Everyone has been hanging back and most of the mainstream media won’t approach it but it’s something that should be talked about,” she said.

Bill Clinton has denied Broaddrick’s charges.

Hillary Clinton has worked hard to avoid or downplay questions about the allegations made against her husband, which came up again over the weekend in Derry, N.H.

There, a heckler, later revealed to be Republican state Rep. Katherine Prudhomme O'Brien, shouted at Hillary about the situation.

“‘I asked her how in the world she can say that Juanita Broaddrick and Kathleen Wiley are lying when she has no idea who Juanita Broaddrick is,” said O’Brien, reported the Daily Mail.

“She told me this summer she doesn’t know who [Broaddrick] is and doesn’t want to know who she is. How can she [assess] that they are lying, which she told someone last month?”

Hillary called O'Brien “rude,” and said she wouldn’t call on her during the question-and-answer period.
