We've elected scoundrels for president before

We've elected scoundrels for president before

In recent years, we have seen fit to elect adulterers, philanderers, drunkards and maybe even stone-cold criminals to the presidency of the United States.

But now, with the revelation of a few off-color comments made a decade ago by the current Republican front-runner for president, everyone's suddenly in an uproar.

When Bill Clinton ran for office and got elected, people were saying "he's like us; give him a chance."

Well, Donald Trump happens to be a man who thinks, speaks and has the same tendencies and desires as we regular people do.

Now that the shoe's on the other foot, the Clinton crowd (and a good many of the "self-righteous" among Republicans) have a hard time handling it.

My response is: "I'm sorry to break it to you, but this is your baby; you deal with it."

As the saying goes, "what goes around, comes around."
