Bill Clinton hits Donald Trump's control style: 'We have never seen anything like this in my lifetime' | Today news

Former US President Bill Clinton has criticized Donald Trump’s resistance to legal norms and asked for a renewed national focus on common basis, warning against political intimidation and democratic erosion. Clinton described Trump’s control style as unprecedented in modern American history. “We have never seen anything like this in my lifetime – someone who says, ‘Whatever I want, the country’s law must be. That’s my way or the highway, ” he told CBS. “And most Americans don’t agree with it.” Clinton also suggested that Trump’s aggressive rhetoric and disregard for norms could reduce its popularity. “I would like to think that he paid a price for it-you know, name and throw his weight around … I think it made him less popular.” “Only elections will change that,” Clinton emphasized that the only way to Trump is against Trump in democratic participation and says, “Only elections will change that.” He said that democratic profits in this year’s regatorial races and a potential home victory in 2026 could help make the opposition to Trump disappear. He also showed to the judiciary as a remaining check about the executive overreaction. On Trump’s efforts to undermine legal representation, Clinton Trump’s reported attempts to prevent law firms from representing federal agencies have condemned if they oppose him. “It’s not America,” Clinton said. “We’ve never done it. The whole purpose of having a legal system is to make both sides heard. ‘ He praised the courts – including judges appointed by Trump – for the resistance to these efforts: ‘The courts stop the president, including many judges he has appointed … He is looking for ways to face all these court orders. But I think he will do it hard. And if he does, I think it will injure him in America. ‘ Call for unity: ‘What we have more in general affairs’, despite the recognition of deep political division, has urged Clinton Americans to reject humiliation and division in favor of mutual respect. “Someone has to get up and say,” Damn, which we have in general matters. We cannot throw away the legacy of this country. We cannot destroy the trust of other people in us. ” ‘We just have to calm down and try to pull people again. That’s what I think. ‘ Clinton about the fitness of Biden: “He was always above his panties.” Clinton rejected the demands of a recent book that questioned President Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities, saying he never observed any decline. “I thought he was a good president … I’ve never seen him and left and thought, he couldn’t do it anymore. He was always upstairs to his panties. ‘ He admitted that he did not read the book, saying, ‘I didn’t want to. Because he is no longer president, and I think he did a good job. And I think we face challenges today without precedent in our history. And some people try to use it as a way to blame him for the fact that Trump has been re -elected. “
