    There are ways to make memes about this without victimizing Monica all over again.

      monica’s only failure was lack of judgement, which is something that isn’t really rare to people in their early 20s and is not a crime. the same can’t be told for orange pedophile insurrectionist.

      this is really stupid joke.

      to anyone who hasn’t seen it, i recommend this interview she did with john oliver about her experience and cyber-bullying generally.

    If this shit is true can I say how funny I find it. A republican powerhouse leader. A dude who got the right all nutty and crazy. Used all the hate buttons, especially the lgbtq+ stuff…was sucking off a Democrat? I’m no Bill fan, but geeze is the man that good of a talker?

      The big deal was that Republicans finally had some legitimate ammo on a Democrat. That’s it, that’s the whole thing. They milked it for all it was worth.

      If he had admitted to the blowjob, they would have attacked him for that. Since he didn’t, they pretended it was all about the lying.

      It was really just about having a convenient excuse.

          I mean, from all accounts and evidence, they have been, just not consensual blowjobs from people of-age.

      Back in the day Presidents would get in trouble for lying or even taking advantage of a person.

      Now, just a few decades later we have a President who constantly lies and takes advantage of everyone.

      Well, my friend, that right there tells me you did not grow up before the 90s 😂

      It was a HUGE fucking deal. Literally all the media talked about. Leader of the free world getting blowjobs from an intern. And remember, “the media” did not include social media (early consumer Internet was barely a thing) it just meant the major networks ABC, CBS, NBC and the major newspapers NYT and a few others.

          Of course not dumbass. Nor is that what I said. OP asked about it being a big deal, and at the time it was a HUGE deal. Front page news for months even years, when “front page” meant something that it doesn’t anymore.

    Can someone explain to me why I’m supposed to be upset over Trump sucking a grown man’s dick? And why does it seem like all these memes, especially the videos coming from the newly purchased social media site are coming from the $7k/post club? There’s a lot of things wrong about Trump. Sucking a grown man’s dick wouldn’t be one of them. I wish he would start sucking some dick, it might at least teach him how to dance, and teach him how to use makeup on his face and hands.

      Who cares? It’s a silver bullet. Of course there’s nothing wrong with sucking dick, but it’s incredibly damaging to Trump so we should keep memeing about it

      You can break down why, but really if comes down to fascism being very psychosexual. Trump sucking off Clinton is incompatible with his image

      It’s not hypocritical to mock Trump for blowing Bill with a dick in your mouth. At all.

      It’s not about sex, it’s about power

        The German Nazis are known for their uniforms, and feminine energy. Maybe this isn’t the answer?

      Not just any dick, a Democrat’s dick.

      Not just any Democrat, but a Clinton. The dynasty that he’s named as his biggest political enemy after he lost the popular vote to them.

      If it came out that Donnie just sucked a random dude’s dick decades ago, we’d see MAGA-themed Pride flags all over the place. But throat-goating his favorite scapegoat? No way the base accepts that.
