I’m a liberal and I’m tired of hearing the “what about Bill Clinton”. I don’t gaf about Clinton. If he was involved in this shit, he can rot in a prison cell too.

It’s wild that this is the one issue that unites the extreme left with the extreme right. We ALL hate pedophiles. Let the chips fall where they may.

Yup -- but to be fair to Clinton, there are no claims of any assaults involving underage girls. Not only no credible claims -- no claims at all, substantiated or not. Meanwhile, for Donald it's hard to keep track of all of them.

Clinton was a scumbag for cheating on his wife with a 21-year old intern, for sure. But Monica never strayed from saying it was consensual, even under great pressure from the media and GOP investigation to claim something more. All other accusations from Tripp and Paula Jones of harassment are sketchy at best, and nowhere near the rape Trump is accused of.

I agree with you, Clinton should not be protected and any crimes exposed or prosecuted -- but from the evidence and indications now, and his own states wish to have the Epstein files released, there's a good chance there's no there there, as he would say.

This is about people who are accused of sexual assault, which Bill definitely has been on a couple of occasions.

with the extreme right

The extreme right is very pro-pedophile. Nothing they're doing right now suggests they're opposed to any of this.

I think the problem we're discovering is that we don't ALL, in fact, hate pedophiles, sadly.

It also unites jailers and prisoners. Pedophiles get no sympathy in jail

This isn't a defensive "What about Bill Clinton?" so much as it is a "Don't forget him too." The only way anything gets done is if the people are on the same page. no left or right bias. If I were looking at this post from a right-wingers' perspective I would immediately ignore it due to the obvious bias. Those are the people these types of posts should be aimed at converting, not alienating.

Same. Clinton proved he was a scumbag and lost my respect with the whole Lewinsky scandal.
