How many times have we heard about Hillarys emails yet no one, including Trump seem to be able to prosecute and prove it? How many times did Obama get scrutinized and attacked over his birth certificate? Or his religion? How many times have we analyzed Bill Clinton's cum stains on Monica's dress? There was just a two hour special on it a couple of weeks ago. Is Trumps worse? Probably. Does he bring it on himself. MY opinion is yes
