In a video that has gone viral on the internet since its release, former President Bill Clinton appears to have pushed his wife and one-time presidential nominee, Hillary Clinton, while crossing a bustling street in New York City. The awkward interaction between the Clinton couple, caught on camera by an onlooking bystander, has piqued the general public’s interest due to its uneasy nature, resulting in its virality.
Bill Clinton seemingly pushed Hillary Clinton towards traffic
A clip of Bill Clinton allegedly uncomfortably nudging his wife as she attempts to cross a busy NYC intersection surfaced online on Tuesday, March 10.
The video, as shared by Fox News, shows the Clinton pair taking a stroll around 41 Madison Avenue, accompanied by a garrison of security personnel. At one point, the group takes a halt at one end of a crosswalk to look out for traffic. In that moment, Bill Clinton seemingly shoves Hillary, causing her to inadvertently take a few steps ahead.
The Democratic Party veteran ends up pushing his wife again, prompting her to raise her hands and say, “No, no, no, no, no. Don’t do that. Don’t do that.” She subsequently walks away to the cusp of a nearby pavement to wait for the crosswalk signal to change. Bill Clinton grins and replies, “That’s not a good idea,” before joining Hillary on the pavement.
The couple had reportedly attended an event and met with their daughter, Chelsea Clinton, before the incident.
Notably, Bill Clinton could be seen struggling to find his footing throughout the clip. After seemingly pushing the former United States Secretary of State into traffic, Clinton and the group proceed to cross the street in a normal fashion. However, while doing so, the 42nd US president once again experienced a stumble and even took support from a nearby structure, suggesting that the 79-year-old Yale graduate could be facing difficulty in walking straight at the moment.
