What happened

Trump used the Yiddish slang word for penis to describe Clinton's 2008 primary loss to Barack Obama. He also mocked her for coming back late from a restroom break at the December 19 Democratic debate. Clinton spokeswoman Jennifer Palmieri wrote that 'everyone who understands the humiliation this degrading language inflicts on all women should' respond. Jeb Bush said Trump's language was hurting the Republican Party. On December 22 Trump tweeted: '"Schlonged" is not vulgar. When I said Hillary got "schlonged" that meant beaten badly.'
