The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Sure, just the same except that while Bill and Monica's dalliance offended some people it was consensual. Trump allegedly flat-out RAPED the woman.

Surely you don't want to go there, do you? As you said, ALLEGEDLY.
The liberal left and democrats have been hounding Trump the moment he announced he was going to run for President trying to pin something on him.
Now this lady accuses Trump of Rape supposedly happening like 30 years ago? I wonder who is paying her.

Then on the other hand we had a sitting President playing footsie with a intern for a year and half instead of tending to the business of a President and the American people.

Even while on the phone with Congressman Callahan discussing the fate of our men and women in uniform.

'Records corroborate Ms. Lewinsky's recollection that the President took a call from a Member of Congress with a nickname. While Ms. Lewinsky was at the White House that evening (9:38 to 10:39 p.m.), the President had one telephone conversation with a Member of Congress: From 9:53 to 10:14 p.m., he spoke with Rep. H.L. "Sonny" Callahan.(183)'

The Washington Post: Wp srv Politics Special

In November 1995, Clinton began an affair with Monica Lewinsky, a 21-year-old unpaid intern. Over the course of a year and a half, the president and Lewinsky had nearly a dozen sexual encounters in the White House.
