    Default Do you hold Trump to the same standard as Obama or Hillary?

    Simple question. Hillary was never president, but she was ridden with scandals (some legit, some faux) and accused of trying to pimp influence for personal gain. Meanwhile Obama never had a legit scandal in his two terms as president, but was heavily criticized for issue executive orders and being inexperienced when he came into office. Trump is the least experienced president in US history, but it applauded both for his inexperience (because somehow that makes him most qualified), his rampant use of executive orders, being unapologetically partisan and caring only about his sliver of the electorate (by contrast, Obama and Hillary are centrists). Obama is a decent family man, Trump is a serial adulterer, an accused rapist, an accused serial groper, and has openly mocked family values and religion. I could go on and on...

    So do you judge Trump by the same standards as Obama and Hillary?

    The DNC/Hillary Campaign collusion was legit. Brokering influence via speeches is legit. The email scandal was legit, but highly overblown.

    No two situations are exactly the same but the answer to your question is Yes.

    I don't particularly like Hillary Clinton or Donald Rump, but I try to see past my personal dislike and judge the scandals based on their merit and not the personality of the scandalous.

    Welcome aboard Amadeus...

    I hold them all to the same measure but w/ the rumpf the bar is lower....
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."
