It's not about what the GOP does or doesn't do with Trump. It's about if your're pitching your party as morally superior - and they are, and they should be - that means you actually should be. Not "well our guy is not a proven rapist, so it's okay."
It's actually pretty disgusting. Want to be not like the GOP? Then don't be like them, including having a guy whose not as bad as them.

Exactly. Also, if this election is for all the marbles, why risk ceding ANY moral high ground to the Republicans. Nothing is lost by not having Bill Clinton speak in 2024.
