Donald Trump plays the impeachment card, tells Washington crowd Clinton is married to an ‘abuser’

Donald Trump was no holds barred on Saturday when he visited Spokane and Lynden.
The presumptive Republican presidential nominee told the crowd in Lynden that Hillary Clinton wants to take their guns and ammo away.
“You tell me if that’s something we can live with … We’re going to cherish the Second Amendment, we’re going to keep the Second Amendment,” Trump told the thousands that showed up.
But that was nothing compared to what Trump said earlier in the day in Spokane about the Democratic front-runner.
“She’s married to a man who is the worst abuser of women in the history of politics,” Trump said of Bill Clinton. “She’s married to a man who hurt many women … She’s married to a man who was impeached for lying. He was impeached. And he had to go through a whole big process and it wasn’t easy.”
Before Trump made the trek out to Washington state, Clinton told CBS’ “Face the Nation” that she would not run an “ugly race.” She would run based on issues.
“I don’t really feel like I’m running against Donald Trump,” she said. “I feel like I’m running for my vision of what our country can be.”
But then she called Trump a “loose canon.” She explained that statement is focused on the statements he makes – promoting torture and killing terrorist’s families, for example.
“I’m talking about what he continues to say and the kind of agenda he’s putting forth for our country, which would not be in the best interest.”
