    I concede, I do not know why this woman is in trouble. Is in office sex forbidden now?

    Is this woman being hounded out of office for liking sex? What is really going on here? As always, your opinions are appreciated

    The release of so much revenge porn against her is probably the main reason she resigned knowing it would be weaponized against her.

    She is in trouble for the same reason Bob Packwood got in trouble, Bill Clinton got in trouble, Charlie Rose and a host of others got in trouble. Having sex with subordinates is by definition abusive. Coercing them to join in three ways and the like is worse.

    Look what happened with Al Franken. I for one think he should not have resigned but the public can get their feathers ruffled quickly when it comes to even suggestion of sexual matters.

    Hill didn't last as a politician while being a porn star at night. I hope they disinfect her office when she leaves.

    Do you hope they disinfect President "I-like-to-grab-them-by-the-*****'s" also? Or does that only apply to women who have consensual sex, and not to sexual abusers who are male?

    Just once I like to see you quote Trump accurately, but I guess that's too much to ask.

    Dude what Franken did doesn't even begin to care to what Hill did. If Hill were male she'd be lucky to avoid jail.

    I also read that she paid the intern 'consultant' fees as hush money. That could also be a legal issue for her.

    She engaged in an affair with her current legislative director, Graham Kelly. That is against ethics rules.

    Ok

    "I'm automatically attracted to beautiful [women]—I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything ... Grab them by the p***y. You can do anything." -Donald Trump
    Now... please explain why you wanted me to quote that?

    Don’t have enough information to know what occurred, but timing is everything. She resigned because she’s become a distraction.

    It was the vast, right wing conspiracy and an angry ex that got her so many troubles in public -- it didn't have anything to do with her own photographed actions, breaking house rules, or who she is.:roflol:

    Wrong talking dirty isn't a crime getting laid isn't crime paying hookers shut up and go away money isn't a crime forcing subordinates to sleep with you is.

    PS this has nothing to do Trump try sticking with the story.

    Why to show the full detail and the context which was the setting. It is standard locker room crap. It is simply a more vulgar rendition of the old tale that the three best aphrodisiacs are money fame and power. It is also apparent that what Billy Bush said on the tape was much worse.

    Oh and while I'm thinking about maybe you can explain to me why the only thing Trump says that you believe occured in a milieu in which lies are the order of the day and the first liar never has a chance?

    Apparently the affair was with a member of her congressional staff, which is a violation of house rules.
