and achieved his purpose. To make it look like a 'witch hunt' for Tr**p and that he is getting treated unfairly as opposed to Clinton.

The details (money) doesn't matter - consensual sex vs. sex for money.

Both guys sinned and Tr**p is being treated unfairly.

Rudy planted the seed for this and it was mission accomplished.

Everyone who is a patriot can see how badly and unfairly TFG is being persecuted by the left, especially considering Bill Clinton was never legally charged for his transgressions.

It's just so unfair!

Besides Monica Lewinsky was hardly an innocent young lady. She had had sex with
# of men prior to Bill Clinton teachers, professors, and her 1st boss. Now Bill was
wrong to take her up on her advances and maybe he and Hillary have some kind of
agreement but that is none of my business.

like it was pedophilia. I guess young woman isn't good enough for them. They apparently need to paint this with an even darker brush.

Oh, and Rudy is an idiot and letch. (Watch the Borat satire.)

At least on his show. Who knows what he says when the microphones are turned off. We know he is a serial liar.

I'm pretty sure that is the weakest defense of all, right behind "insanity".

the oval office. He was the most powerful man in the world at the time and could have stopped her.

I loved Clinton. I voted for him, supported everything he did but this one thing. I felt betrayed. I also felt sorry for Hilary, but was so happy when she was our candidate. The first woman president of the United States!

Yeah, Lewinsky was young and stupid and wrong. The whole thing was dragged out too long and endangered what traction we Dems had in Congress.

In other news, whoever was making that stuff with which Rudy was dying his hair must be just about ready to file for Chapter 11.

Any anyway, why is ANYONE interested in what Rudy has to say about anything? Does he still think Trump is going to pay him a cent for services rendered?

I'll point out that Clinton testified under oath which trump did not do in EITHER of his impeachments.

And that was the case because YOU YOURSELF forbade him from testifying under oath because you damn well knew he would lie his ass off.
