    Well the issue is the power disparity there. She was basically these peoples boss. Even if it’s consensual, that’s not really a situation one wants to have. And having someone in power over you make sexual advancements is a huge red flag in any case.

    Given she is a political figure, they also left her open to being compromised, which is also something you don’t want to have happen to leaders in government. Given there was $200.000 of hush money paid, I’d say she was indeed compromised.

    There’s also the whole hypocrisy part, but that’s par for the course when it comes to Republicans. So while still bad, hardly worth mentioning.
