Same as it ever was. I can't help but think back to the time when they impeached Bill Clinton for lying about an extramarital affair. They constantly threw at us, "If he lied about that, what else is he lying about?" Meanwhile, they lie and cheat in order to install a pathological liar and serial adulterer, who openly cheated on each of his three wives, and is also an adjudicated rapist, who likely also trafficked girls for sex. Meanwhile, Bill is still married to his only wife thirty years later. They're a bunch of goddamn hypocrites, that's why.

why don't we talk about the fact that he waltzed out of the oval office with highly sensitive intelligence and refused to give it back. Hillary had to testify before Congress regarding the comparatively minuscule servergate

Why don't we talk about the fact that he never gave a deposition under oath for either of his two impeachments where Bill Clinton did, at the insistence of republicans.

Why don't evangelical voters get called out for their overwhelming support of trump, in spite of Access Hollywood, Story Daniels, E Jean Carroll, and a litany of credible harassment allegations.

The list goes on indefinately. The answer to why he never is held accountable seems to be because he gets to play by a different set of rules than everyone else, even other republicans

could be about 20-30 different things. There is so much to decry and yet MSM ignores almost all of it.
