“If I understand the history correctly, in the late 1990s, the President was impeached for lying about a sexual affair by a House of Representatives led by a man who was also then hiding a sexual affair, who was supposed to be replaced by another Congressman who stepped down when forced to reveal that he too was having a sexual affair, which led to the election of a new Speaker of the House who now has been indicted for lying about payments covering up his sexual contact with a boy.”
Uhm, yeah, that’s pretty much it. Oh, by the way, the other 90s scandals were even more bullshit than that. They weren’t even true, much less scandalous. Something to keep in mind as you get excited over the obscure innuendo and scandal bullshit they’re throwing now.
