NEW YORK—When it comes to allegations of sexual misconduct, Hillary Clinton sees a clear difference between Democrats and Republicans. Clinton was quick to lump together Moore —who’s accused of sexually harassing and assaulting several teenagers —with Trump, who’s accused of sexually harassing more than a dozen women. She was also quick to extend an olive branch to Franken, her former Senate colleague, who’s accused of sexually harassing a female radio host in 2006. There’s no excuse for his behavior but he has called for an investigation and apologized to the woman involved,” Clinton said. “Look at the contrast between Al Franken, accepting responsibility, apologizing, and Roy Moore and Donald Trump who have done neither.”She continued, “There’s a double standard: the Republicans deny, deny, deny and divert, divert, divert and they get away with it because the press is more concerned about someone who accepted responsibility than people who refuse to take responsibility.”
