Comment by Tinidril@midwest.social on Trump Faces Renewed Scrutiny Over Allegations of Raping a 13-Year-Old Girl

Fuck that “BoTh SiDeS” whining. I said no such thing. However, Bill Clinton is almost as connected to Epstein as Trump, and that’s just a matter of public record. How is it that everyone seems to forget that he stuck it in a Whitehouse Intern? Whatever else Bill Clinton is, he is a slime ball, but he is still in the bubble of people protected by the Democratic party. There are political consequences to that, whether you want to accept it or not.

You want to offer an alternative theory about why the press and Democrats aren’t all over this story? They can’t seem to campaign on anything but how truly shitty Trump is, but they ignore this? Make it make sense.

I feel so bad for Monica Lewinsky and for us as a nation. She was so young, naive, optimistic, and driven. An old man with power took advantage of all of that and ended up ruining her career for a stupid blowie. Granted, she fucked up by telling her friend, but once again, young and naive.

In the past decade or so, she’s been an incredible speaker and activist and it makes me sadly wonder how different our country would be if she’d stayed in politics. She’s one of those people who I’d love to meet but would be too scared to then learn something disappointing about her.

Bill Clinton is old fucking news and I don’t care to engage with conspiracy theories other than to deride them

A weapon to destroy Trump is lying on the table TODAY and it isn’t being picked up because of that old news. That is why it’s relevant TODAY. Deride it as a conspiracy theory if you want, but it’s not the first time Bill Clinton’s dick has saved Trump in an election.

I wish. Unlike the Republicans (and apparently a lot of Democrats) I think that there should be consequences for rapists without regard for what party they belong to.
