Hillary is lucky to have Bill as her dance partner, former Republican presidential candidate and Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich said yesterday on CNN's Crossfire, because she's as ungraceful as Kim Kardashian at a Prince concert.
'Bill is to politics what Fred Astaire is to dancing, he is just automatically amazing and he wants to have Ginger Rogers out there dancing,' Gingrich, who co-hosts the show, said according to Politico.
'Instead [with Hillary Clinton] it’s a little bit like watching Kim Kardashian get kicked off the stage by Prince because she couldn’t dance.'
'I think there’s a big problem, because I don’t think, as a candidate, that [she] dances very well,' Gingrich said of Hillary.
Speculation over Hillary's political plans has encouraged a new round of attacks on the Clintons throughout the past several months.
Nothing's been off limits in the 2016 firefight, and Republicans have thrown everything including the kitchen sink at the former first family in hopes that Hillary will rethink her presidential aspirations.
The most notable chink in the Clinton's political armor came during one of Hillary's first interviews to promote her book.
Hillary told ABC's Diane Sawyer that she and Bill were 'dead broke' when they left the White House.
'We had no money when we got there, and we struggled to, you know, piece together the resources for mortgages, for houses, for Chelsea's education. You know, it was not easy,' Hillary said.
Attempts by the Clinton family to amend the statement have only led to more stories about their wealth and complaints that Hillary is 'out of touch.'
A follow-up comment by Hillary that the former first family was roughly $12 million in debt at the end of Bill's presidency was rebutted by evidence that she and Bill made that much money in their first year out of the White House.
Bill Clinton has made more than $106 million in speaking fees alone since his days as the 42nd president of the United States, and he received a nifty $15 million advance payment for his 2004 autobiography, My Life.
Hillary Clinton has made $5 million off of speaking gigs since she left the Obama administration and received upward of $8 million for Hard Choices. That's in addition to the $8 million she received for her 2003 memoir Living History.
Chelsea Clinton is on a $600,000 a year contract with NBC News on top of her salary at the Clinton Foundation.
Recent estimates put Bill and Hillary's combined net worth at $100 million or more.
