Donald Trump insists he -- not Hillary Clinton -- is the "true defender of women's rights." The Republican frontrunner makes his point in a video that shows photos of the Democratic frontrunner with accused sex abuser Bill Cosby and disgraced congressman Anthony Weiner. The short video also shows her husband, President Bill Clinton, with mistress Monica Lewinsky.

Hillary and her friends!

It includes an audio clip of a Clinton speech on women's rights: "Women's rights are human rights and human rights are women's rights. Once and for all, let's keep fighting for opportunity an dignity."

Trump's Instagram post, captioned "Hillary and her friends!", includes an audio clip of a Clinton speech on women's rights: "Women's rights are human rights and human rights are women's rights. Once and for all, let's keep fighting for opportunity an dignity."

The graphics also boast that Trump is the "true defender of women's rights."

The photo of Clinton and Cosby, who has been accused of sex abuse by dozens of women, appeared to be more than a decade old.

Weiner, whose wife is a longtime aide to Hillary Clinton, resigned from office because of controversial sexual texts to a young woman.

Monica Lewinsky is the White House intern whose 1996 affair with President Clinton triggered the president's impeachment.
