Ex-Bill Clinton adviser says his former boss no longer 'Comeback Kid,' Donald Trump is
“It is an incredible comeback. I would have bet you 100 to one against it four years ago,” pollster Mark Penn said.
For decades Bill Clinton has held the political moniker of the "Comeback Kid" for winning the 1992 primaries despite admitting to infidelity and surviving several scandals during his presidential tenure from Whitewater to impeachment.
But one of his former top advisers told Just the News in an interview aired Monday that Clinton must yield the title to Donald Trump after the 47th president returned to the White House after overcoming two assassination attempts, four indictments and two impeachments.
“I think he has inherited the ‘Comeback Kid’ moniker from Bill Clinton,” pollster and former Clinton adviser Mark Penn told the "John Solomon Reports" podcast in an episode aired Monday. “We thought that that Bill Clinton came back. But Trump came back to him, I mean, from, I lost count on how many impeachments, how many prosecutions, how many assassination attempts to come back and to win the popular vote and to be the voice of the people.
“It is an incredible comeback. I would have bet you 100 to one against it four years ago,” Penn added.
