Donald Trump is featuring a photo of Monica Lewinsky in an online campaign blast at Hillary Clinton, perhaps to show he's willing back up his threat to go nuclear on Bill Clinton's sex scandals if needed.
A 15-second video montage posted on Trump's Instagram account shows a succession of pictures, reported AFP, among them one of former President Bill Clinton standing beside Lewinsky, the White House intern with whom he had an extramarital affair in the late 1990s.
The next shot showed a New York tabloid featuring Bill Clinton's face and the headline "Liar, Liar," after the then-president admitted he had carried out an "inappropriate" relationship.
In an interview aired Sunday,
Trump confirmed his threat to dredge up Bill Clinton's past if Hillary Clinton continues to attack him as a sexist.
"I don't want to say it's a threat, but it's a threat!" Trump told NBC's Chuck Todd.
Trump has sought to exploit Bill Clinton and his infidelities, calling the former president "fair game" while blasting his "terrible record" with women, said AFP.
In Trump's Instagram montage, Hillary Clinton's voice plays over the clip, during which the former first lady, senator and secretary of state is heard proclaiming: "Women's rights are human rights and human rights are women's rights, once and for all.
"Let's keep fighting for opportunity and dignity."
The video also shows photos of Hillary Clinton standing beside disgraced former congressman Anthony Weiner, who quit the House of Representatives after becoming caught up in a notorious sexting scandal, and features her with fallen comedian Bill Cosby, who is embroiled in allegations that he sexually assaulted women.
The clip concludes with a screen of text ironically declaring Clinton a "true defender of women's rights."
