So what is it that you are trying to say? That men having multiple partners while in their marriage happens in this society, and we should just embrace it and say, "That's OK, because boys will be boys"?
Sorry - I'm not buying in. As far as I know, (the political figures you have put forward) none of these instances include someone that society KNEW BEFORE THEY WERE ELECTED that they were having an affair. And when it was found out, it was scandalous.
You want me and the American people to buy your argument that, "It's OK, everyone does it." It's not OK. Then why even have marriage anymore? Have we come so far, that we can openly entertain electing a man that has already had three marriages? Not exactly the moral high ground that Republicans have tried to portray throughout their history. Are the Republicans really ready to abandon all the principles of society, just to get a candidate elected that was flawed to begin with? My, how far have we actually fallen as a country? And how much farther from any sort of moral values do we still have to go?
If it's OK or the politicians, then it should be OK for the rest of America, right? These political leaders are supposed to set our standard for how to govern, and how to lead a good, moral, and decent life. It looks like you Republicans are willing to abandon everything you stood for, because you made a huge mistake in who was chosen as your candidate. You party made a big mistake, and you're going to pay a big price.
Tick Tock....
