Lust and the American right

I do not know how those on the right wing of American politics decided that a man, who was on his third wife was a more moral candidate than a woman who stuck by her adulterous husband.  This being a man who had bragged about sexual assault.  Fine, he said that this was ‘locker room talk’ but no locker room talk I have heard involved men or boys bragging about the girls/women they forced themselves on.

Now many may argue that these women let him grab them, but many victims of rape and sexual assault have talked about how they froze, the hashtag #IjustFroze.

Of course since then, it has come to light that that same man paid hush money to two women who he engaged in adultery with.  Well, so the allegations say.  And while many have been vocal about judging Stormy Daniels for having sex with him on Twitter, they seem to let him off when it comes to him having sex with her.

There are other things that I do not understand, the acceptance of Brett Kavanaugh, despite the overwhelming evidence that he lied under oath about his drinking.  The allegations that he had sexually assaulted a woman can never be proven without an admission from him, but why lie about his drinking if he was innocent.

One day, someone may be able to explain the faith they have in an adulterous president on his third wife.  And I hope I meet hem online soon.
