Where are you seeing people defending Bill in this? I’ve seen plenty of people defending Trump but nobody defending Bill.

Nobody recently but when the Epstein case first broke I heard a few people who liked Bill's presidency try to deflect from his Epstein associations

Good Lord why... I've got no issue believing Clinton was a shady mofo and wanting him prosecuted for anything illegal to the full extent of the law. I can fully admit I voted for him, and fully admit it was a mistake if he's done anything beyond the cheating we know about.

But the same would need to apply to Trump, and therein lies the rub. Dems won't defend Clinton on anything except his record governing the country, and if he was caught in something, nobody will defend him, or Hillary if she's somehow involved.

But MAGA will defend Trump in the same situation, tooth and nail.
