Burden of proof ain't on me when basic logic will tell you that screwing someone pretty clearly will make you look on the more favorably. Don't need anything more than that but go off I guess. If it's thought of as trolling because I can't get a personal testimony from Willie Brown or Montel then...idk what to tell ya. 

What does basic logic tell you about becoming Vice President of the United States based on sleeping with a state assembly member? Why didn't any of the other several hundred other people who were in a similar position become vice president? 

What about all the other jobs she had?

I always check bias by flipping things and seeing if the other candidate would be attacked. If Trump had slept with his boss and then gotten favorable treatment I'd certainly knock it against him just like people appropriately knock him for inheriting wealth. Simple. Oh but I'm sure Trump got all his loans because of his merit and not because of something else like a familial connection. I guess you can believe in nepotism but not in sexual favorability? Strange.

Plenty of liberals overestimate the importance of nepotism too. 

It's frequently been something held against people like Elon Musk, but I would guarantee there are people who were in a similar position and didn't get as lucky as he did. 

Luck plays a big part in people's lives. 

I think it's absurd when liberals claim that being given a million dollars made it easy to become a billionaire. And similarly it's absurd to claim that Kamala Harris became VP because she slept with someone.  

Have you seen anyone claim that Trump became President because of his dad?

I mean hell draft dodging an unpopular war is the whataboutism people refer to as if that's anywhere near as bad about lying about being in war. Cases closed and listing "Oh well she did this OTHER thing where she didn't do that same thing so clearly it doesn't apply to ANY of her accomplishments." is a pretty funny argument too. Oh I guess Trump landed some deals other than those with his family so he never benefited from nepotism based on that argument. 

I've said something similar before, I don't think liberals care about the draft dodging. 

I would almost guarantee that most of them bring up the draft dodging, not because they care about Trump, but as a way to call out conservative hypocrisy. As conservatives love to praise the military and sanctify it, and yet they don't seem to care that Trump lied about it.
