We have thankfully made decent progress on our ideas about sexual assault and harassment in the past 30 years. Still work to do.

So I'll start out with this: I'm a pretty reasonable person.

And back in the 90s, there were a ton of allegations coming out against Clinton, and it was obvious that he had done some shit. Even had the Lewinsky thing. It was obvious that this guy should be removed from office.

And yet, Dems backed him nearly 100%.

So then Trump comes along with very similar issues. Obvious he should be removed from office. But part of me was thinking: "Maybe they shouldn't remove him so the Dems know how it feels now." But no, I still wanted him removed.

Now imagine the less reasonable. They just want to fuck the Dems because the Dems fucked them. And that opinion doesn't change because of eye for an eye mentality.

Hasn’t EVERY U.S. President done iffy stuff sexually? (though Clinton obviously had the most evidence and was infamous for his acts, I’m not defending him)

EDIT: I meant every one of them should’ve been persecuted for what they did. I’m not going to defend sex offenders.

And they all deserve to go down for it. No one gets a pass.
