Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton falsely claimed President Donald Trump is an “admitted sex assaulter,” and also excused her husband’s sexual misconduct allegations as being “in the past.”

Clinton’s inaccurate claims came during her interview with the BBC’s Andrew Marr, who asked her about the allegations of sexual misconduct levied against Democratic donor and Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein.

“This kind of behavior cannot be tolerated anywhere, whether it’s in entertainment, politics,” Clinton said, according to Fox News. “After all, we have someone admitting to being a sexual assaulter in the Oval Office.”

Weinstein, the co-founder of Miramax, was exposed last week in a bombshell New York Times report for allegedly sexually harassing and assaulting women for decades. The report said Weinstein paid off multiple women to remain silent.

After turning a question about Weinstein into a crusade against Trump, Marr said Clinton had previously dismissed allegations made by women against her husband, former President Bill Clinton.

“That has all been litigated,” Clinton said, suggesting the claims were no longer relevant. “That was subject of a huge investigation in the late ’90s and there were conclusions drawn. That was clearly in the past.”

Clinton was impeached in the House on Dec. 19, 1998 on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice.

He also admitted to having a sexual relationship with intern Monica Lewinsky.

Clinton’s claim that Trump was an “admitted sex assaulter” was in reference to the infamous Access Hollywood tape that was released in October 2016 during the final stretch of the presidential election.

The video of Trump in 2005 showed him saying he could “do anything” to women and that he could “grab them by the p—-.” Trump has apologized for his comments, but has never admitted to sexually assaulting any woman.

Clinton admitted to Marr she was disappointed the tape didn’t end Trump’s presidential campaign.

“The really sad part of the campaign was how this horrific tape, what he said about women in the past, what he said about women during the campaign, was discounted by a lot of voters,” she said.

Clinton, who is on a promotional tour for her latest memoir, What Happened, recently came under fire after she waited five days to release a statement condemning Weinstein.

According to CNN, a representative indicated that Clinton would donate the $13,000 to an unspecified women’s organization.

Clinton said the money would cover what Weinstein donated to her 2000 Senate primary race, 2006 Senate primary and general election, 2007 presidential campaign during the Democratic primary, and the 2015 and 2016 presidential primary and general election.
