In an interview with Fox News’ “Hannity,” Sean Hannity compared allegations of Trump harassing women that appeared in The New York Times with accusations made against the former president.
“For example, I looked at The New York Times,” Hannity said. “Are they going to interview Juanita Broaddrick? Are they going to interview Paula Jones? Are they going to interview Kathleen Willey?" he said, listing women who have made allegations of sexual misconduct against Clinton.
“In one case, it's about exposure,” he continued. “In another case, it's about groping and fondling and touching against a woman's will.”
“And rape,” Trump responded.
“And rape,” Hannity said.
"And big settlements, massive settlements," Trump continued. "And lots of other things. And impeachment for lying."
Trump complained that the media is unfair to him and does not scrutinize Clinton’s past as much as they should, saying, “worse than anything else is the political press.”
"I was so furious at that story, because there's nobody that respects women more than I do, Sean, you know that," Trump said of the Times article. "And I treat women with respect. And I have — we all have fun. We all have good times."

But until now, he had stopped short of accusing Bill Clinton of rape.
In 1999, Broaddrick, a former nursing home employee, accused Clinton of raping her decades earlier when he was a gubernatorial candidate in Arkansas.
Clinton denied the allegations through his attorney and refused to comment on them.
The Hillary Clinton campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment Wednesday
