The moral basis I'm seeing from the lefties we have here at TOL, like AB, is that adultery between consenting adults is no one else's business.
And why on earth would we even WANT adultery to be legal??????
As for support of Trump for President .....
He's an employee with a salary to do a job.
I don't question my plumber's morality when I hire him to do the job I hired him to do.
His morality doesn't even come up.
I don't pick a plumber or a President to hire for a job to be my moral poster boy.
Simply, his adultery is now getting in the way of his ability to do his job. The president doesn't live or work in a vacuum. His actions and obvious
lack of moral character effects us all, whether you see that or not. He represents
all of us on a global stage. Others look at his actions and may tell themselves, 'well, the president is cheating, maybe it's not so bad that I am'. Kids might think this is what adult relationships or marriage is really like.
How does staunch Christian VP Pence feel? :think:
It would be like you hiring a gay plumber and having his lover show up at your house while he's trying to repair a leak. The neighbors saw it all unfold on your front lawn.
How embarrassing for everyone involved.
But if I had my way and adultery was made a criminal offense (as it should be), then Trump would be in jail (at the very least).
And so would all plumbers that committed adultery.
Who's with me?
So, if things were the way you feel they should be, Trump would likely be headed to jail.
That's the only concession I was looking for. Thank you :cheers:
