Calling their bullshit, part the first

In light of audio tapes released in which Donald Trump says some seriously nasty shit (and what a surprise that was...) about a woman, republicans are rushing to claim his actions are on a par with the womanizing of Bill Clinton.

No.

Just no.

While I doubt philandering will ever be considered a desirable trait by a majority of Americans in any of our lifetimes, Bill Clinton has also spent his career fighting for women's reproductive rights, equal pay for women, equal rights for women, and, in his personal life, helping his wife realize her political aspirations.

He is also not running for President.

And despite their very personal struggles, the Clintons have managed to keep their marriage together these oh so many years.

Comparing the actions of a man with a wandering eye with those of a pig is self-delusion at best and outright lying to the American people at worst.

Peace,
