It's not the sex




SHRED
@Hobie_SHRED
I'm not sure I could care any less about a President's sex life.
What I do care about, whether it's Bill or Donald or whomever, is that they leave themselves vulnerable to blackmail with these secrets.
That is unacceptable in a #President . And unacceptable for our country.

You seem to be missing a key distinction to your argument with today's political media....

That is unacceptable in a Democratic President.

Silly shred, as if the rules apply to both sides.

the Rightwing's heads exploded when Bill Clinton had his extramarital shenanigans, but when it comes to Dumpy, we all know they forgive anything immoral he does.

For some reason, republicans seem to get away with every perversion. Democrats can't even get away with an affair.

One for them and another rulebook they hold everyone but them accountable for.

Then there is nothing to blackmail him with

If nobody cares about the sex then the secret has no juice

The sex is not really important. It might motivate our side a bit, but his supporters don't care.

But the payoffs, now we're onto something. Campaign funding and donations irregularities are fair game.

Trump and his party are awash in dirty money, Russian money.

Follow the money.
