All of politics is a compromise. You can’t actually accomplish anything if you have a dogmatic approach to it. That’s why Sanders, who I very nearly wholeheartedly support, is so rarely able to actually get anything done. And bless him for it!, he’s the moral compass we need! But to get things done, politicians need to make deals, sometimes with shitty people.
I don’t like everything that Buttigieg represents. But I like him a lot more than Newsom, who throws trans people under the buss without provocation. I certainly like him more than Joe Walsh, the ‘former’ (?) Tea Party conservative that now claims to be a Democrat.
There’s absolutely no way in hell that it’s just adultery, not when she explicitly says that she can’t remain and still hold on to her ‘Christian’ values. Paxton has done a fuckton of things things that explicitly go against what Jesus taught in the four gospels, and against damn near everything that Paul wrote as well, so it’s gotta be more than just extra-marital sex.
