Bill Clinton got impeached for getting a blowjob from a consenting adult, but not a whisper from the same people when Trump gets credibly accused of molesting children?
WTF
Why isn't every reporter in the USA asking about this?

It's all so disgusting.

Anyone who expects any better of them is a damned fool.

(7,969 posts)I don't watch the news stations they watch (for network evening news I only watch ABCs World News Tonight w David Muir and various shows on MS Now). The rest from online news aggregators, and I decidedly refuse to click on the rw rags like Fux, etc.
But IF they're covering it I'm sure it'd be everyone but Trump, or it'd be spun into some "fake news liberal conspiracy."
they're immune to facts because they're a CULT.

(38,389 posts)Not to mention that Clinton admitted lying - so the perjury was admitted to. With Trump, he took the stand in the E. Jean Carroll case for all of 3 minutes, said nothing substantive, and did not admit to lying. So there would need to be a trial to prove perjury.
But my point is that Clinton wasn't impeached for a blow job. He was impeached for perjury. So the analogy in the OP is not relevant.

(38,389 posts)instead of asserting Clinton was impeached for a sex act - I wouldn't have responded as I did.

They've given Donnie a pass for who knows how many impeachable offenses.
They have *zero* principles whatsoever other than blind, misplaced loyalty.

(19,415 posts)that he could literally rape their children and grandchildren in front of them and they would simply gush about how wonderful he is at abusing the children and how lucky they were to have it happen.
Look at what's happening in their churches? No drag queens molesting children, but tons of pastors and youth pastors.
Right wing evangelical churches are full of men who think that women and children's bodies belong to them.

And Republicans and the media in the tank for them have and will happily use this against us to further their political agenda.

(77 posts)Trump said that he never set foot on Epstein's plane and then we found out that he was a frequent flier, with at least 8 entries in the flight logs. Every Trump denial is just another Trump lie.
