Affairs by a President, in and of themselves, are no big deal. Clinton’s downfall was his lying and using the power of his office to cover up. The other potential big deal about a President who cheats is his being blackmailed to betray national security to keep his infidelities hidden.
The reason that political figures fight so hard to keep things like this secret is that there are probably 20% of the voters who would consider this a deal breaker for them. For most candidates the loss of even 5% of the voters is disaster for them.

BINGO!
You mean to say, “It is no big deal if a politician cheats unless he is a Republican”, that is a fact.
