For the 50th time, my priorities were shaped by the way the liberals talked about Bull Clinton. They didn’t care at all about his moral lapses ( which were many) and said stt that mattered was policy successes ( which he also had many).

when i’m picking people i’m close to, i care deeply about their ethics. when i’m validating a very distant executive, results matter more.

You completely ignored the fact that the left still loves the Clintons. Sorry, you can’t claim ethics matter and worship Bill Clinton.

Tel me how you can reconcile your demand that presidents have a good moral compass, with Bill Clintons popularity on the left.

Have fun.
Not very hard,
You alternately claim to love and despise Trump.

You claim that Bill Clinton had “many” moral lapses.
List them, I missed the one where he tried to perform a self-coup.

If there is sometimes a reason to seek an ethically flawed president, it does not follow that all ethical flaws are equally worth defending.
