Trump and Clinton are alike in more ways than almost everyone on here wants to admit, although one is much more intelligent than the other.  If I had to guess, I would say that Gaetz is a similar type of human being, but it's just speculation at this point.

1.) You are right. Trump made billions in business, Clinton got his in government on the backs of taxpayers. If you would hire Clinton to run your business over Trump, that makes you a stupid businessman.

2.) You don't have to "guess" about Gaetz. That guess is made solely from what your ultralib TV is telling you to guess. Facts don't care about your guesses or feelings. Wait for the facts. Main FACT right now is nobody has come forward with any wrongdoing by Gaetz.

Trump would run my business into the ground, stripping away all the value and leaving me to pay the creditors.  No Thanks, I would hire you before I would hire Trump to run my business.

Concerning Gaetz, that's why I said it was just speculation at this point, although some of the things coming out today make him look creepy.

Forgive me but I find this whole idea of Gaetz as being somehow inordinately creepy to be laughable. Setting aside for the moment the under aged allege, (remember how Dens brought down Republican Senate candidate from Georgia Roy Moore?) But Dems have several hot button issues they want to talk about every time there's some smearing to be done; take for example this idea of systemic racism which they can seemingly slather on just about any issue. A charge with which I heartily disagree FWIW. And yet our culture is in fact, systemically sexual. In mid 20th Century America wer taught to sow our wild oats (wink wink) before we got married. Sexual conquest although looked down upon as completely unacceptable by the Church, was none-the-less the social norm. Movies glorified sex, rock and roll music is LOADED with sexual imagery, millions of so-called romance novels disgrace the bookshelves of libraries and beach bags of vacationers. And present day TV features 24/7 movies on several channels dealing exclusively with the modern day idea of falling in love. And one can scarcely find an advertisement that doesn't use sexual symbolism .

For decades, Moms and Dads have gotten some kind of twisted vicarious thrill out of playing host to parties for their own kids now mind you, where casual drinking and sexual games are the featured and expected attraction. We begin teaching 5 year olds about sex education in school, and federally funded school programs in addition to lunches for the poor, pass out condoms to kids starting as young as Kindergarten June 24, 2010— -- When kindergarten through fifth grade students return to class at Veterans Memorial Elementary School in Provincetown, Mass., this fall, they'll be able to ask the school nurse for condoms.

Now you can tell yourself that a man like DJT in the past exploited women if you want. I say it is very likely that for every women he exploited there would have been a hundred ready to throw themselves at him. Same thing for Matt Gaetz. He's a single man of power and influence. You know they're lined up around the block. But this idea that women are somehow innocents, being victimized by men out cavaliering about is in my mind laughable.

And lastly. We've been talking about two men of power and means. But I doubt sincerely there is one among us here on BGR who could truthfully say they are without sexual sin. Remember what the Lord said about it....
Matthew chap 5
27  Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
28  But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

Now friends, even over appreciation for how good a woman might look in one's eyes is a judgeable offense in the eyes of God. Nobody should be up on any kind of high horse on this matter.

So basically what you are using as a excuse is it's all right for a man if he has power and influence ?
So Bill Clinton would also fall in that line of thinking ?
And i guess by your thinking Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby, or even Jeffrey Epstein would fall into your line of thinking
But I believe it's more about if there's a D or a R behind it
