@giujohn,
I believe this Trump presidency will be one of the most corrupt - and that's saying something. His policies promise to be influenced by his business dealings. And to the degree they do and the country they do it with - yes, our national interests including security issues will be compromised. Apparently he's already shown this proclivity with Russia. China is on the docket. Middle East?
Eventually I believe there's going to be "The Trump Tapes" and it won't be pretty..Trump is an opportunist and a self aggrandizer. The way he ran his campaign on lies, exaggerations, fear mongering, hypocrisy - his character portends a horrible presidency..
Maybe Clinton did some illegal stuff and maybe she ought to be jailed for it - I don't know all the details to say she should or shouldn't (but then again, if we called a spade a spade, lots of politicians, including presidents should have been jailed for the crap they pulled) but to imply that Trump somehow wouldn't approach what Clinton has allegedly done is naïve in the extreme. He's all about winning and my guess he'll eventually beat Clinton in corruption as well..

It wasn't just civil proceedings, there were criminal charges levied at him for sexual misconduct as well. You may be able to wave some of these off as women pursuing money, but I doubt all of the accusers were of that variety. Trump didn't give his game away in that 'Bush' tape, he had several decades of interviews to let us know where he stood in relation to women, but in that tape he basically lays out for us his ill behaviour and then then tries to hide behind 'locker room' talk and gets his hair in a fluff because folks used that as evidence of his assaultive nature..Really? Rich powerful men sexually assaulting women? When does THAT ever happen? It might be no more or less than in the general population, but when it then gets put on tape? That's an uphill battle for Trump..
