With the revelation this week of Clement’s confessed , sexting adventures with a would-be extortionist, this former minister and leadership contender has landed on the wrong side of at least three big themes in the political news. Start with the growing number of allegations about Clement’s relations with young women, which were popping up virally all over social media on Wednesday.

Clement was well aware that personal security and hacking are a large public concern in the fall of 2018.
