How many times during the election did you hear people on the left actually use Trump's multiple marriages and infidelities against him?

I was comparing the Lewinsky incident with the porn star thing, and it was you who said the porn star thing ought to be a bigger scandal than it is.

I did? If you could send me a link to that post, I'd really appreciate that. I seem to remember to be explicitly stating that actions between two consensual adults shouldn't be fodder for the public - and i think a porn star and Trump doing the dirty falls into that category.

The only portions of this situation that I have any qualms about is the fact that Trump appears to have paid this woman hush money in a rather circuitous way, as opposed to being honest about the situation, were it brought to light. Or the fact that it isn't clear where the money actually came from - Trump's personal account of the campaign.

However, I do agree that in any other admin this would be a bigger scandal, because it is such a fricken juicy, tabloid-esque situation. I mean, one of the stories floating around is that Stormy Daniels beat the POTUS with a rolled up Forbes magazine - it's hard to make this stuff up.
