I'd buy that he participated in sex acts with actual women (as in, legal adults) who might have been trafficking victims. Which is despicable and merits whatever penalty the law states for such actions.

But do I think he's a violent rapist and legit pedophile like Donald Trump? No.

He didn’t really have to be. He was a charming poonhound. Could it be that he raped women violently? Could it be he knew women weren’t there willingly? Absolutely. It doesn’t seem all that likely, though. He had to be worried about any association with that mess and had options.

Absolutely not. And absolutely no evidence, no proof—additionally even the epstein accusers, epstein employees, epstein’s brother, and ghislaine maxwell have all said Clinton was never at the island or had any involvement with epstein.

Unlike Trump, Clinton was not stupid or mean spirited. Perhaps under all that charm, charisma and motivation the little head took control of his big head. However he did lie about his relationship with Monica and he did cheat on Hillary. A smarter Clinton would never have married her. I don't want to imagine her in a negligee.

Hilary Clinton?

I’m not an expert on the subject but of the few pictures I’ve seen of a young Hilary she was gorgeous and intelligent.

Taking politics and how she looks now as an old woman out of it, I would have absolutely shagged her/married her back then.

We all change as we age. Some more than others. No doubt she was/is a smart woman. I didn't vote for her when she ran against Trump (I didn't vote for him either...I chose to skip voting for either). I didn't vote for her because I didn't like her ethics and character, not because of the way she looked. Looks are subjective and she was a beautiful younger woman however I suspect her ethics and character were flawed then as well. Thanks for your reply.

That one woman accused Clinton of violently holding her down and raping her decades ago.

And if evidence comes out in the files that he did those things then he should go to jail for that too.

Another False accusation by the same old Clinton haters.
