      I mean…at the very least it’s consistant. I never had an issue with Bill Clinton getting a BJ. I felt like Hillary should have the right to be mad, but everyone else should fuck off.

      The right on the other hand lost their shit. They made it into a 4 year big deal. If Bill had just told the truth on the stand, that he got sucked off and loved it, then they’d have no tools to impeach him. But to them the sexual deviancy was the big deal to them.

      I guess same here. They don’t care about laws or the country, but if you include sexual misdoings, they faint like a karen in a church seeing people outside having fun.

        They always denied it was about the sex though. Even at the time. We all knew it was, but they constantly were claiming it was about lying on the stand.

        And then Larry Flynt inadvertently helped them on that front when trying to shame them by putting out a report detailing all the Republican congresspeople who had affairs. I appreciate what he tried to do, but that made it even easier for them to say it wasn’t about the sex since no one got rid of them for an affair.

        Like stormy. He doesn’t say he didn’t pay the media to influence an election. Apparently he thinks that part was ok. He throws a fit saying he didn’t have sex with her.
