This statement really irritates me. It's the same logic used by Eleanor Clift to excuse Clinton for his escapades. Are we supposed to think that Anthony Weiner did his texting etc. because he was a powerful and thus sexually aggressive man? That's pathetic. What is a ‘powerful’ man? Someone who doesn't have the power to control their own appetites? Someone who is too narcissistic to look beyond themselves? If you can't control yourself you're not that ‘powerful’.
I believe Winston Churchill claimed that he had a low sex drive which allowed him to concentrate on more important things.
Of course old Winston had a bunch of kids so it wasn’t all that low.
Exactly. Supposedly powerful men behaving in infantile ways is quite pathetic.
