conducted by the FBI of Hillary&#8217;s private server.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The latest Trump &#8220;hit&#8221;, as the Hillary team referred to them in the Podesta emails, started at Sunday&#8217;s debate when Anderson Cooper, in the first question of the night, manipulated Trump&#8217;s now infamous &#8220;lewd&#8221; comments to Billy Bush to imply they were an admission to actual sexual assault.\u00a0 As can be seen in the video below, Trump acknowledged the comments and apologized for them, but <strong>Cooper refused to moved on until he forced Trump to respond to a completely fabricated allegation that his words were necessarily an admission of actual sexual assault.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Then, not terribly surprisingly, within a couple of days, the New York Times released a follow-up &#8220;hit&#8221; in which they revealed women who claim to have been sexually assaulted by the Donald a couple of decades ago.\u00a0 <strong>And, of course, Clinton spokeswoman, Jennifer Palmieri, immediately called out Trump for &#8220;lying&#8221; about the scandal at the debate.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"max-width-video-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"fluid-width-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"fitvid364242\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hRiIq3QfXz8\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" frameborder=\"0\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But Trump has used the coordinated &#8220;hits&#8221;
