I don't have a double standard, but you and Hoops certainly do. Of those three Bill Clinton accusers, only one of them accused him of sexual assault. That one accuser has made numerous inconsistent statements over the years. Even Ken Starr found the evidence in that case to be, “Inconclusive.” The other two were workplace sexual harassment claims. Of the one claim that went forward, it was dismissed at the trial court level when the judge ruled even if we assume everything Paula Jones says is true, the behavior described wouldn’t amount to sexual harassment.
I think every Trump accuser deserves the same treatment the Clinton accusers got. That is hundreds of thousands of hours of primetime news coverage detailing their allegations and a professional prosecutor with unlimited taxpayer funds appointed to look into their cases against Donald and gather evidence. Once we get the results of that process in a few years, we can definitively conclude which claims are credible and which are not. Until then, these are new claims, and they deserve to be taken seriously. Given Trump's statement, that he regularly kisses women without consent and grabs them by their pussies, it doesn’t look good for him as the claims these women are making are consistent with the behavior Trump gleefully confessed to engaging in.
