Despite my attempt at a moral high ground, I do have to admit that a disastrous revelation regarding Eric Trump or whatever the other son is named would make my week.

Of course this all got brought up during Bill's campaign and presidency, and eventually dropped.

No, this wasn't what I had in mind. I've seen people bring it up once or twice but not often. What I'm referring to are the victims of Bill's alleged misdeeds.

Based on my very limited knowledge of it, Broaddrick claims she contacted Bill to volunteer in the 1970s. Bill invited her out for coffee, then up to his hotel room to get away from the reporters. Then he raped her out of the blue.

She appeared at fundraisers after the alleged event. Hillary supposedly came up to her at one and thanked her for what she's done, which she interpreted as thanking her for keeping quiet.

"Red State posted:

In fact, criticizing Hillary for staying married to Bill BECAUSE of his treatment of women, is only inadvertently admitting that this kind of behavior towards women is wrong. So bringing it up to minimize Donald Trump’s behavior is even more ridiculous and short-sighted.

Bill Clinton should not even come up when discussing Donald Trump’s behavior. He’s irrelevant to this conversation. If something is wrong, it is wrong. Period. At least have the courage and moral decency to call it what it is without the excuse that someone else’s spouse is worse.

This is your guy. The guy you picked, despite our warnings. The guy who has a long and well-documented history of degrading others. The guy whose lack of morals was very well known at the beginning of the election cycle. You picked him anyway, and you never hesitated to throw that in the rest of our faces. So don’t you dare have the audacity to bring up Bill Clinton as if he has anything to do with Donald Trump being exactly the person we all said he was.

Again, if the argument is that Hillary Clinton also has a history of mistreating women, then have the conversation. If the argument is that Donald Trump’s actions are wrong, and as despicable as he is, you still find him better suited than his opponent, then have that argument. Disagreements will occur, but at least it's an honest conversation.

But don’t push a false narrative where we’re comparing Donald Trump to Bill Clinton in the race for president. You picked Donald Trump. So own him. And enjoy your Hillary Clinton presidency.

What does he think this will accomplish? How is attacking Hillary for Bill's alleged actions, regardless of whether they're true or not, even in the ball park of relevant or helpful for him? This seems so ill-thought out if you would have asked me at the beginning of the election that this would be the result, I would have laughed in your face.

This needs to be stressed. The outrage isn't because he's joking about sexual assault. The outrage is because he's on tape admitting to sexually assaulting women. Again, for the people not catching it: And a man running for President is on tape admitting to major criminal acts.

I doubt it. Too many congresspeople, senators, and governors need the whole republican base. While the base screams about RINOs I'd suspect most support their actual representative. I'd put money on Republican superdelegates in the next presidential primary. I look forward to 2020 when their base nominates a dog with Hitler's brain in it.

That's the only other scenario, by my measure: to learn nothing and roll the dice on yet another authoritarian shitheel in 4 years, because Trumpism is fused to the party like one of those mind-controlling wasps.
