How? I specifically say I like that he doesn’t do those things. I didn’t say Trump’s name because his scumminess proceeds him. There’s literally no one as disgusting as Trump and the fact they go after a person who does something as pedestrian as pay a sex-worker when they back the best friend Epstein ever had just makes me draw the comparison. I worded it that way to draw the direct comparison, so I’m okay with it being a little ambiguous (though pretty clear imho).
