Bill Clinton's administration had the Whitewater investigations during the first term and the Monica motif during the second and President Trump has Story Daniels. Does his payment to Stormy Daniels equal the sensations of the Clinton era so long ago? I think not.
The Clintons had more intrigue than the Adams family while in office. Hillary Clinton's personal lawyer Vince Foster did sepuku or a DC version (apparently) after the reappearance of a Clinton diary on a coffee table in the White House that had gone missing for months. Michael Cohen, formerly Donald Trump's personal attorney, made a plea deal and was convicted even so for eight crimes mostly done to benefit himself.
President Trump also hired the world's best campaign manager Paul Manafort who was like an undefeated heavyweight boxer in his own field of promoting politicians to office with brilliant packaging.
The fact that Manafort was just convicted of tax evasion and other crimes to benefit himself isn't really a guilt by association kind of thing. Donald Trump as a capitalist just hires the best available to get his work done. Those people sometimes are volatile themselves cutting and trimming things to win. Maybe hired guns are a regular business practice.
I would rate Donald Trump's actions as just a 2 on a scale of 10 for treachery and political perfidy in comparison to the Clintons. President Trump hasn't even lied under oath yet. Democrats would probably demand his execution at the tower if he swore that he did not have sex with that women. If he would kindly do so regardless of if he did or not then the affair could proceed to the next stage, a better stage although well trodden now, about the cigar and the meaning of 'is'.
