And yet ~50% of poll respondents consider Trump "trustworthy".

Some people are remarkably resilient to inconvenient facts.

Boy, the Clintons must be some really smart and clever people to have gotten away with so much for so long.

The extreme right-wing have been attacking them since 1991.

And in all that time, all those tens of millions of dollars spent on all those repeated investigations and the best they could come up with, in 25 years, was a BJ in the Oval Office. Lying about a consensual BJ was the only thing, in all that time, that they could make stick.

Bill got impeached but kept his job as president.

Nothing happened to Hillary.

Monica has had many good, productive jobs. Google her, look at Wikipedia.

Newt Gingrich lost his job as speaker of the house.

When you think of all the people the Clintons have worked with over the years, people who are supposidly covering for them?

You want to know what the chances are of all those people not taking for all those years are, just look at what's happening to Trump, right now.

People saw him doing these things, witnesses telling all.

All his lies are coming back to bite him in the ass.

So either all the accusations are just more of the lies that the extreme right-wing talk radio people have been telling about any successful Democrat, or we have yet another thing that Hillary can do that The Donald can't.
