Chelsea Clinton told Cosmopolitan this week that’s she’s grown used to people attacking her family as part of politics, and spoke out about Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s threat to highlight her father’s numerous affairs during the presidential debate on Monday.

Her comments then sparked a rebuke by one of her father’s accusers, Juanita Broaddrick, who set the record straight about why the Clinton clan is perpetually steeped in controversy.

Trump told reporters in the spin room after the debate on Monday that he did not bring up President Clinton’s long and documented history of cheating on his wife “out of respect” for Chelsea Clinton, the couple’s only child, Politico reports.chelsea3

“I’m very happy that I was able to hold back on the indiscretions with respect to Bill Clinton,” Trump told reporters. “Because I have a lot of respect for Chelsea Clinton and I just didn’t want to say what I was going to say.”

When questioned about when he might address Bill Clinton’s sexual history, Trump said “maybe at the next debate, we’ll see.”

Cosmopolitan asked Chelsea about Trump’s post-debate remarks in a pre-planned interview in honor of National Voter Registration Day on Tuesday.

“After the debate, Donald Trump said he was ‘proud’ that he didn’t mention your father’s infidelity out of respect for you. What was your reaction to that?”

Chelsea called the focus on Bill Clinton’s sexual past a “distraction” from “what’s actually at stake in this election” which in itself is a distraction from the question posed by Cosmopolitan.

Chelsea said, according to Cosmopolitan:

Well, my reaction to that is just what my reaction has been kind of every time Trump has gone after my mom or my family, which is that it’s a distraction from his inability to talk about what’s actually at stake in this election and to offer concrete, comprehensive proposals about the economy, or our public school system, or debt-free college, or keeping our country safe and Americans safe here at home and around the world.

And candidly, I don’t remember a time in my life when my parents and my family weren’t being attacked, and so it just sort of seems to be in that tradition, unfortunately. And what I find most troubling by far are Trump’s — and we talked about this when you interviewed me the night before the Iowa caucus — are Trump’s continued, relentless attacks on whole swaths of our country and even our global community: women, Muslims, Americans with disabilities, a Gold Star family. I mean, that, to me, is far more troubling than whatever his most recent screed against my mom or my family [is].

Juanita Brodderick responded with a barrage of messages over Twitter:

Broaddrick’s tweets have been re-tweeted thousands of times since they went up Wednesday afternoon, according to Twitchy.com.
