DEMOCRATS ARE NOT LIKE REPUBLICANS

We do not make excuses for sexual assaulters and then vote for them.

We are not the immoral hypocrites in this fight.

Good riddance, at whatever date, to sexual assaulters. They have no place in the Democratic Party.

True.

For example, unlike Democrats, Republicans have no problem getting rapists and sex offenders elected to office.

And that political power is primarily obtained by winning elections. If you find another way to do it let me know. That would be quite a breakthrough.
