Poll of the Day > Which is worse: Bill Clinton sex scandal or Trump stormy daniels scandal?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm leaning towards Clinton's scandal

Clinton, and it's not even a question. Clinton's was an abuse of authority as an elected official. Trump was a private citizen at the time of his affair and had no direct power over Stormy or her career. Granted, if it turned out that the money for the attempted payoff came from somewhere it shouldn't have, that would be a different story.

This. Frankly I don't care about either scandal though. They are both terrible people, and I completely disagree with the majority of their politics. Their sex affairs are of little concern to me in the grand scheme of things.

Clinton lied about having sex with monica
but an abuse of authority doesn't really make sense here they were both adults, so monica would be just as guilty but we have this crazy culture where you can be a prostitute and blame the john for having sex with you

nut job christians saw fornicating with a woman as a crime, the only one who should've pressed charges was hilary and she didn't so it was all just a spectacle

what George Bush's brother did in florida with the supreme court was way worse
al gore lost the election by 400 votes and they didn't even wait to count up the absentee ballots
most of the paper ballots by the way were indecipherable

another stupid thing is that hilary won the popular vote but lost the election
this can mostly be attributed to gerry mandering as she won more than 3 percent of the vote but voting districts are created each year in such a way that makes it so houses on one street tip the scales in a specific partys favour

in short democracy is highly corruptible and even if we vote the puppets out the oligarchy is still there, we can't physically get rid of them like we could in a monarchy..

but billary

I read Bill Clinton is Bill Cosby. Yeah...

Except age had little to do with it because it was more about him being in a position of power and using that to take advantage of an intern

Clinton is worse but I don't really care about either.

No, he's right. Trump has more than likely abused his power for sex, but in this instance it's not as bad

bill's was definitely the one more blown out of proportion.

this kinda just feels like "oh, trump's just being trump again."
---

For me, Clinton's was more significant solely because it happened while he was in office.

Trump's is just incredibly obnoxious. If he'd literally just said 'Yeah, I cheated and paid hush money' I'd probably never have a second thought about it, since it was the ol' Don Tron doing his thing and pretty much par for the course.

...he was in a position of power over her where, not only did he have a direct impact on her career, he could have also gotten her blacklisted.

Taking advantage of an intern is a far cry from paying a prostitute and, moral character aside, it's more than a little demeaning to compare Monica to a prostitute >_>

It's just Mead shitposting as always, tbh. He's gotta somehow find fault with everything.

Money from his election fund was used do quite wrong.

Sent a goon to scare her while she was with her child also. All Clinton did was lie and got a bj. Trump used funding to pay hush money and threaten a woman.

Clinton. He was the president at the time and it was with an intern. Even if Trump was president at the time he paid the porn star for sex, it still wouldn't be as bad.

I'm a Democrat and liberal, but I have to go with Clinton.

Clinton cuz Stormy is hotter

Both were pretty scuzzy, but I'm gonna give the nod to Trump. He paid hush money to shut her up, then apparently hired a thug to intimidate her in front of her infant daughter, which is beyond anything Clinton did.

Gerrymandering is a terrible thing, but it's absolutely not why Clinton lost the election given that you can't really gerrymander presidential elections. It's given the Republicans a huge boost in both houses of Congress, but it's not why we have Trump as president (that can be attributed to the Electoral College, a separate but equally stupid part of the American democratic system).

I'd say you and mead are a tad more obsessed with him since you talk about him and try to get his attention every topic he posts in. It's kinda sad to watch

they re-draw the district lines every year using a computer algorithm to swing things in their favour
they know what houses are voting and just a simple street adjustment could let them win 51:49 every time

I ship Mead and Zeus, or Moose as the believers call it.

Depends on in what ways you're asking that it's "worse". Clinton's is a worse abuse of power, but Trump's is just a worse thing to do as a person in general, cheating on your pregnant wife. Especially when she's your third wife and you've only been married for like a year, and you're 60, an age when most people have long stopped having kids. The only explanation is his obsession with putting his name on as many things as possible extends to people, since it sure sounds like he didn't even try to maintain a healthy marriage on his third try.

a) Redistricting does not happen on an annual basis; it is conducted every ten years.
b) They do not know how every house votes, because it is both illegal to gather that information and impossible to know in advance of future elections (since a past Republican voter could switch to Democrat next election and vice versa). They can find out whether voters in the house are registered as Republican or Democrat, and they can also use demographic analysis to determine how voters are likely to vote, but they can't just flat-out ask how everyone voted.
c) Districts have no impact on the presidential election. Presidential election is done on a state level, not a district level. If you win a majority of a state's voters, you win that state (and, in most cases, all of that state's electoral college votes). Districts impact congressional elections, which is where the major issues with gerrymandering are felt.

Well, she believed it was Cohen who may or may not have acted on his own (assuming it's true anyway since the threat sounded like something from a movie).

Even beyond assaulting and raping dozens of women?

you think both are terrible people? Do you think clinton is less a terrible person than trump? Many americans might believe this.
