The only other president in history who had been divorced previously was Ronald Reagan, but his divorce was in the 1950's 30 years prior. Is it a sign that times are changing, or was Trumps message what he wants to do with America mean more then his personal life. Trump says he anti abortion, but can he really say he follows any religious morals?
Bill Clinton was the first president to be caught getting a blow job in the White house while being married at the time and then lying about it (and later impeached for it) before a court of law.
That being said, I do find it a bit appalling that we've now got a President whose first marriage fell apart due to an affair (and subsequent birth of a child) and then I have no idea what happened with that second marriage, but his third marriage is to a woman who posed nude - not once, and not just "artistically," but in some pretty graphic spreads.
Of course, Obama was raised by communist influenced extremists, had a cray cray African dad, smoked weed, and attended a very openly racist church for decades. Betty Ford was a sloppy drunk. Nixon - well, we all know about his fall from grace. And don't even get me started on JFK.
I'm sure I've left quite a few out when it comes to pretty low behavior before, during, and after their time in the White House. Which reminds me...CLINTON. OMG. The little blue dress...the cigar...the desk in the Oval Office (I always wondered if Hillary would replace that desk if she became President but apparently we're not going to find that out)...
It's depressing to think about it all.
I used to think that we could do better, but I'm beginning to realize that apparently we can't.
Meh. When it comes to affairs of the heart or other anatomical bits, I've long ago adjusted my expectations of others down to 2 basic requirements:
All participants should be consenting adults
No doing it in the street and scaring the horses
If elected officials do a decent job in office, I try not to care about any - ehm, peccadilloes? - they get up to in their spare time.

So... what is your point?
I'll see Clinton's BJ and raise Trump being the first POTUS to have been accused of rape by his first wife.

The way thing are looking, he may be divorced a 3rd time before he gets out of office. Melania doesn't look real happy with this Presidency gig.
I don't think it is about not liking the Presidency. Its more about hate coming from women who supposedly stand up for women, no matter our differences.
I actually, have no problem what he did as a citizen, its what he will do as a President. I am willing to stand with him and give him a chance. We dealt with a man for 8 yrs who tore down Christian values and now some of you are all over being a Christian nation or conservatives have no Bible belief left, divorces, yada,yada......the last President took that away in the eyes of the world. So, this is what we get, and it's the left that cheered Christian values were done in this country. It's on the peoples hands not Melaina or President Trump.

In the heat of divorce things happen. Bill Clinton raped how many women? This whole conversation is as old as Moses can we bury it now?
