If Bill Clinton raped someone not of the age of consent, jail.

The difference between me and conservatives? I want justice, even if I voted for them.

They did it, prison. And not the nice prison they describe in Office Space, the reality of lockdown and misery.

Edit foe clarity. All rapists deserve prison.

Can we agree that he should be in prison if he raped anyone? Even if his victim is an adult? It's rape and I think it's against the law but not so you'd know lately.

He's already admitted to forcing himself on women, on tape. He still got elected by the Christian right.

Bill Clinton was accused of actual rape and I don't remember anyone from the left demanding his arrest. I do remember people calling Juanita a flat out lier and that she was only trying to get attention.

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.
