Dems Finally Fall Out of Love with Bill Clinton
Bill Clinton |
Slick Willie used to be their dreamboat, but now nobody wants him to be their Valentine anymore. Edward-Isaac Dovere, Politico:
After booting Sen. Al Franken precisely because they wanted to draw a clear contrast with Trump, Democrats across the party's ideological and geographical spectrum acknowledged the political trouble that any appearance with Clinton would cause.
It's not as if anything about ol' Bill has changed. He's still the same Bubba he always was. He's still the guy who stood up in front of the whole world and said this:
And you had to do all that with a smile.
Happy birthday, Pres. @BillClinton! Thank you for your friendship & support as well as your incredible leadership! pic.twitter.com/0P6vUhGZ5k— Kirsten Gillibrand (@SenGillibrand) August 19, 2013
A mere 18 months ago, Bill was gawping at all the pretty balloons at the Democratic National Convention. No more balloons for Bill. Grabbing those things was what got him in trouble in the first place.
The irony is that none of this would be happening if it weren't for Bill and Hillary's old pal Harvey Weinstein. He's the one who triggered this whole "Me Too" movement. When he wasn't raising funds for the Clintons, he was raping actresses for a living. Arguably, we still wouldn't know about all the awful things Weinstein did if the #Resistance didn't exist. And the #Resistance wouldn't exist if Hillary hadn't failed.
Does this mean I think Trump is any better? Nope. His treatment of women is one of the many reasons I couldn't bring myself to vote for him. He and his administration deserve every bit of criticism and condemnation they're getting for this stuff. The Stormy Daniels fiasco, the Rob Porter debacle, all of it. I refuse to defend or make excuses for any of these awful, awful people.
If you can, go ahead. Just don't pretend you're any better than the creeps you've hated for the past 20 years.
