Firstly, I think we'd have a better discussion if you'd try to choose appropriate arguments. Given that I just said that I think allegations alone are an uncertain way to judge someone on this issue (as in post 48), it's a poor measure for you to introduce right here.
What I think is a more certain measure is what someone says of their own views. Given this:
I know that Trump uses his power to prey on women. He literally said it himself. How can you have any doubt about this?
I'm no fan of Trump, but I disagree that this is at all equivalent to Clinton, much less that it's worse.
I think saying what Trump said above is no where near as incriminating as getting accused of rape and/or sexual harassment by multiple women.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
