Is trump compromising our standards?

Who asked for perfection?

Has trump forced our standards so low that he becomes the new litmus test?
Given that as a litmus test, we are only setting ourselves up for failure.

Think how your comments and actions on inappropriate or unrequited touching could mpact those in your social or media circles. Making excuses or oversimplifying situations has a cost, a compromise, associated with it.

Many women are out there, including our young and most vulnerable, that could be getting the message that unwanted touching from powerful men is ok...sometimes.

Not saying that in the case of these women it was right or wrong. That isn't for us to decide.

Most importantly:
There are strong, intelligent and well qualified WOMEN in this race. The job of president can be done by someone other than a man.
Obama is not president anymore. We are going to have a lot of significant issues to fix after trump and we need it too be about the issues, not about them.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
