WSJ publishing information that alleges Trump had an "encounter" with a porn star named Stormy Daniels in 2006. CNN is trying to push the story and baffled (again) by why Trump supporters don't seem to care about it. (The Stormy Daniels story should be a bigger deal - CNNPolitics). Another CNN article charged hypocrisy that conservatives attacked Bill Clinton but seem to be giving Trump a pass.
As a conservative (but not a die-hard Trump supporter) here is why (roughly in order of importance):
1. Did not happen in the Oval Office (hallways) with a young intern
2. Did not perjure himself under oath
3. Happened 10 years ago
4. Trump supporters already know he has character flaws...he was elected anyway (Side note: Liberals would be much better off thinking hard about WHY Trump was elected and understanding how conservatives in this country feel about globalism, identity politics, national pride, and the "swamp")
5. Stormy Daniels isn't upset about it (consensual)
6. A private issue between DJT and Melania
All this adds up to...who cares? Let's hash out immigration and appoint some more judges.
