Bill Clinton leaves NC audience befuddled with bizarre Trump ‘impression’ By Victor Nava Published Oct. 17, 2024, 9:45 p.m. ET Former President Bill Clinton busted out a bizarre and confusing impression of Donald Trump on Thursday, during which he suggested that the GOP nominee might send him to “supermax” prison for life.

Clinton, 78, made no real attempt at capturing Trump’s distinctive voice or mannerisms when he spoke as the 45th president during a North Carolina rally with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz — with the intention of conveying that he might be considered by Trump to be “the danger within.”

“When you sign up, the oath says you promise to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic,” Clinton told the crowd.

The quip drew a few chuckles and Clinton paused before continuing the brutal impression, adding to the confusion.

Donald Trump has repeatedly warned about “the enemy from within” during recent media interviews and campaign rallies. REUTERS “‘Now, I used to like President Clinton. I once said only he and Ronald Reagan were the great presidents since World War II. But I’ve had a change of heart, and I think he needs to go away for a long time,’” Clinton said as Trump, with the crowd largely silent.

“‘I’m not going to execute him, although I could under the Supreme Court ruling, but I think I’ll just send him to the Colorado supermax for the rest of his life,’” the ex-commander-in-chief said, concluding the strange parody.

“So I’ve already got a petition ready,” Clinton added.

“I want him to transfer me to Guantanamo because when you’re 78, you’re a lot more worried about being too cold than too hot.”
