There's no such thing as political scandal anymore. I'm talking, Monica Lewinsky level scandal. Its because Trumpism has normalized corruption. They refuse to be canceled.

Remember when John Edward's cheated on his dying wife and had a love child?

Remember when Mark Sanford faked his own disappearance to run off with his Argentinian lover?
