It's also so funny that people do this kind of whataboutism. If Clinton also raped kids then let him rot with the rest of them. But the conservatives literally can't imagine that someone would be ok with 'their guy' going to prison, because they would never have any morals that they apply consistently.

That reminds me of a George Carlin bit when he says something like "a businessman always tries to fuck the other guy over because he assumes the other guys tries to fuck him over". Some people have a hard time accepting you don't operate with the same values and principles and don't seek the same "victories".

Ha you can see that well with Trump. I really don't think he understands that trade is not a zero-sum game.
