Trump and Clinton

Mon., Nov. 27, 2017

This is in response to the Nov. 18 article, “As sex scandals topple the powerful … Why not Trump?” The answer to this is simple. Democrats and the liberal media excused Bill Clinton and excused Hillary after she attacked Bill’s accusers. The moral outrage from these Democrats and supporters is laughable. There, in a nutshell, is your answer. Now the Democrats are going after some of their own to try to gain moral credibility.

I can just see the future headline, “Moderate Republicans join Democrats in demanding Trump to step down.” Time will tell how this scheme works out.
