more than one hundred newspapers called on Bill Clinton to resign. ...

Only three newspapers in America have called upon the President to resign. In 1998, more than one hundred called on Bill Clinton to resign. Where is the courage on the editorial pages right now or were Clinton's sins more damaging to the country than @realDonaldTrump

It's upside down now. Trump is the great betrayer. The king of all liars. Adored by the deceived and honored by the greedy.

Republican party is so evil there are no adjectives to discribe it anymore.

Either way it needs to be removed from power totally. And kept out of power forever.Amputate the right wing from politics it's diseased..

Imagine that. Especially when Newt and a bunch of repuggies were guilty of the same thing.

Of course, the more they witch-hunted Bill, the more popular he became.
