    Maybe you've missed how many times I haven't defended Bill Clinton and called him creepy and acknowledged the fact that he is very likely a sex predator.

    I do see irony in the past that many of the louder GOP influencers move past just acknowledging the scumminess of Clinton's behavior into conspiracy land.

    Bill Clinton is not someone I'd trust taking a teenage girl to the airport alone.

    Abusing people, sexually or otherwise isn't something that is constrained by party affiliation.

    Bill Richardson, someone I used to respect was in the Epstein files.

    Fox News has an established history of abusive and inappropriate abusive and harassing sexual behavior.

    Matt Gaetz likely paid off underage girls for sex.

    Harvey Weinstein has a fundraiser for democratic causes.

    All of that is awful and the truth is Trump was found civilly liable for sexually assaulting a woman and has a lifetime of accusations of horrible behavior, some of them being more credible than others.


    I have a lot of liberal views, many of which have moderated over the years, but when it comes to stuff like this I don't do the whole partisan team sport thing.

      Why did they let Bill talk at the DNC? I guess the Dems don't have a problem with pedophiles.

        If Trump thinks they can monetize it, the obviously yes. They should market them to the still-grieving parents of many dozens of dead unvaccinated Samoan children.

          About a dozen. That sounds about right given my memory of the talk.

          Trump probably hit a dozen whoppers in the first 5 minutes of his speech. She is an amateur.

            Trump shamelessly killng a bipartisan border bill was a pretty big factor too.

            • Democrats in congress are saying privately that Kamala's proposal for price control on groceries would be DOA and never pass congress, even with a democratic majority. Phew.

              https://www.politico.com/news/2024/0...klash-00176266

              But such a bill has no chance of passing Congress anytime soon, even if Democrats win the White House and Congress this November, according to six Democratic lawmakers and five Democratic aides who were granted anonymity to discuss the matter candidly. These people said Democrats in Congress have privately been telling critics that this part of the Harris plan is not viable.

              Rather, it’s a messaging tactic — a way to show that she understands food prices remain an economic burden for many Americans and to redirect voters’ anger about inflation to corporations, in a way that progressives in particular have cheered.

                HR 2 passed in the house... The senate version (S2824) died in the senate. I forget, who controls the senate again?

                  Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                    Not the same bill. HR2 was introduced by Republicans without any consultation with the Dems. It was killed by a bipartisan vote last year the Senate. The bill this year had bipartisan support and was expected to pass until Trump killed it because it might hurt his reelection chances.

                      Why is the GOP trying to re-elect sex predator Trump? The guy who liked perving on naked underage girls at his pageants?

                        Didn’t say it was the same bill but the Dems (and Romney) could have passed it but they killed it. So the Dems clearly didn’t want a border security bill.

                            Yeah, doubt it. I think you missed this during campaign, but he isn't a beloved figure in the Democratic Party or someone without a lot of clot.

                              Remind me again which party almost unanimously voted against the procedural vote to advance the bill?

                                So was RFK full of crap when he posted this? Or is he full of crap now?
