Meaningless waste of time.

is not "would" he but "should" he.

For me, the correct answer is "yes."

Despite his issues with women other than his wife, Bill Clinton has empathy and a soul. Trump has neither. My guess? Bill would likely have stepped aside if the number of claims that Trump has against him surfaced.

speculating about this, but I can't come up with anything.

I think Clinton would totally act just like Trump - AMIRITE.

But I voted for him, like fer sure.

GTFO of here with this

I guess it popped into my mind because it happened in the White House, while in office, so did that make it any worse than the accusations against Trump from before he was elected??

Like i said, I voted for BOTH Clintons, this is just a question that popped into my mind.

Monica in her 2014 Vanity Fair story made it clear it was sex between 2 consenting adults.

Trump's victims made it clear it was NOT consenting.

there would have been demands for him to step down? Trump is not even a factor here.

You ask if Clinton would act the same way Trump is. Of course Not because the basis for Trumps behavior is assault and harassment which is illegal while Clinton's was merely hiding an affair between consenting adults which is Not illegal...anymore.

I seriously doubt it was Not consensual

Just the accusation is enough to derail a democrat's career today.

Also having affairs yet nothing was done.

Different times...Shouldn't we be looking into Clarence Thomas too? He is still serving and ruining the court.

But I'll bet someone will soon go down for a consenting affair outside their marriage.
And I'm all for getting rid of Clarence Thomas!

FYI, the lady who posted that vomit-worthy video really should be prosecuted under revenge porn statutes.

Had she been his staffer, or an intern, there might be other questions. But otherwise... pure revenge porn, and no amount of eyebleach will even remove the censored still from my brain.

I had to look at lolcats before I could eat again as it was.

Anita Hill would have been believed today, and other women would have joined her.

Prior to his election he was a known "womanizer." That would automatically be considered sexual harrasment today, which would have disqualified him in the eyes of many democrats. Yes, we have higher standards than they do.

Clarence Thomas is at the top of that list.

Hill would have more support for sure.

He might have to go. On the other hand, there is no way to make him go, so he might just stick it out, like Trump.

Gringrich would've become president and Medicare would have "died on the vine" by now.

And if we start firing people who have been unfaithful, there will be a lot of job openings.

So very irrelevant indeed.

Gore, having served as President, might have had a better shot at beating Dubya.

He had an affair w/an intern. And he had a long term affair with a woman before he was Prez. Beyond that, he denied what he was accused of and was never found to be guilty of anything, despite hundreds of Republicans going after him persistently, spending millions of taxpayer dollars.

there was not anything REMOTELY like #MeToo back then

And your point is....????

It says "if he WAS IN office today", just like with Trump, it didn't come until he was in.

because he's so rich and powerful...and if 10 women had come forward with consistent, credible stories about his assaulting them, when they were known to him or even complete strangers?

That's unimaginable. That is uniquely a Trump thing. There would be no reason for Clinton to resign, like there is for Trump.

and ineptitude, and questionable mental stability, and evidence of colluding with a foreign country to tilt the election...if he had not resigned, WOULD THE REPUBS HAVE GONE AFTER HIM TO FORCE HIM TO OR TO IMPEACH HIM?

The answer is...not only WOULD they, they DID.

Why are you even tasing this as a discussion topic. Clinton has been gone for nearly 20 years.

Hillary Clinton was MORE THAN QUALIFIED ALL BY HERSELF to become POTUS.
Hillary Clinton DID NOT NEED any kind of "Buy One Get One Free" offer to become an outstanding President. In fact, I don't think swing voters were even remotely interested in the possibility.

Bill Clinton was DEFINITELY still around.

But that's not the point of my post, it was a simple question whether BC would have fought to stay or not.

Monica made no charges. Starr investigated all those who did and found nothing.

Any investigation.
Just accusations.
And resignations.

Clinton had consensual sex with Lewinsky whereas these men today sexually harassed or groped women without their consent. That's a very big difference. You really can't draw a parallel here.
