MSNBC grills Chelsea Clinton over Bill's sexcapades

Chelsea Clinton was just a kid of 15 when her father's affair began with a then 22-year-old intern, Monica Lewinsky, so one must imagine that her opinion about the scandal would be interpreted differently by her than the American public and by her mother, Hillary, who lost the presidential campaign to Donald Trump in 2016.

So when NBC and MSNBC "reporter" Peter Alexander asked her about the scandal in terms that could only be considered raw, Chelsea was understandably upset by the question.

The former first daughter was asked by Alexander: "Did you ever get the chance to see the blue dress of Monica Lewinsky with your father's semen stain on it?"

You cannot blame her for her lashing out at the man who would dare ask such a question: "So it was a semen stain. So what? It isn't like what Lewinsky and my dad did was not the same as having sex. He already told you people that. How dare you ask me such a question. I'm his daughter, for heaven sake, and I believe my dad over some bimbo accuser."

"Hah haaaah haaaaaaaah!"

So here was yet another case of the people in the news making the news, because they don't actually know how to do news.

Former journalist Jake Tapper of the Communist News Network defended Alexander saying that Chelsea was old enough at the time her father was sticking Havana cigars where they don't belong, and quite possibly sexually active herself, to be asked such a question. 

He also said that he would do the same line of questioning with Ivanka Trump if given the opportunity and either one of the Obama daughters because that's the kind of hard-hitting newsman he is.
