[QUOTE="ThatRobGuy, post: 72218642, member: 123415"] ...eh, that's a bit of a cop out answer. We could technically go back as far as we wanted and make similar statements about presidents well before Clinton. Reagan in the Iran/Contra deal Nixon - obvious reasons FDR - Internment of Japanese Americans Jackson - indiscriminate slaughtering of Native Americans The reason why this scenario (and most of the scenarios with Trump) are particularly unique is because some of his most rabid supporters are people who were the most adamant about pushing a pro-Christian, pro-"Moral" agenda and have sworn up and down that the reason we need to keep "progressives" out of office is because of the notion that they lack a moral compass and they won't promote Christian-specific values. Yet, they were quick to rally around a person who's divorced multiple times (some due to infidelity), owns Casino's, dishonestly scammed people out of money in a wide variety of business deals, ran swimsuit pageants, and has resorted to making low brow comments on social media (like the ones he made about Ted Cruz's wife). Bill Clinton's supporters never claimed to be the party of "sexual purity" and monogamy. Trump's most ardent supporters, on the other hand, have staked that claim (and have ever since the 80's).
