Trump blasts Stormy Daniels sketch of "non-existent man" ...

Man, for a guy who never met her, he seems to have a lot of inside information on the woman ...
I know I am going to regret this but, if we could for one moment isolate sexual peccadilloes from all other faults...how is Trump's sexual misbehavior better or worse than Clinton's?

If it's just another way to hate him when the other ones get old, I get that. But if the sexual behavior is relevant, how do the two men not compare on that score? Or were/are you as critical of Clinton?

This is not intended in any way to ignite or extinguish other political issues. I would just like to know why this ONE issue is so important if it wasn't before?
@Graylight Those were almost exclusively his political opponents, who now mostly ignore the same sins from their kinda-guy. This isn't a political argument from me. It's a right/wrong, shouldn't we use the same justice scales question. Because if we don't, then the issue doesn't matter, just its political power matters. I'm not naive enough to think that doesn't happen every day, but this time it's not only or even mostly politicians, it's citizens, who have legitimate beefs, but not, in my opinion, on this issue.

@Mamapolo2016 Oh, I think what Clinton did was reprehensible and made even worse because he was in a position of professional power. It shouldn't lessen the impact of what Trump is alleged to have done.
@Graylight That is true...unless one was a Clinton defender. That was my sole point. Honest.
@luckranger71 I don't know if the Clintons tried to buy silence. There is ample evidence they attempted to coerce silence. To me coercion is more objectionable than purchase, because I can agree to sell or not. If significant power is brought to make me see how costly it would be for me, and I don't have the choice, isn't that worse? Certainly it's as bad.

Neither man is admirable seen in this light. And I am not interested in discussing their other attributes.

I am curious about this apparent double-standard. It's wrong or it isn't. It matters or it doesn't. It affects Presidential qualification or it has no effect on it. But it's the same thing.

@Mamapolo2016 My understanding is that threats were issued in both cases. Clinton's threats were worse, because they came from the government.

Both sides have revealed their hypocrisy, in my opinion. Clinton's Republican tormentors are remarkably quiescent on Trump. And Clinton's defenders are very aggressive...
@WoodyAq Exactly. I don't have a dog in this fight except utter disgust at hypocrisy on BOTH sides. Because it trivializes everything into political expediency. There IS no highroad here.

It never happened...and he didn't know about it.

There was no mysterious stranger...and he sure didn't look like the sketch.

He’s projecting. He has a non existent soul.
