66. I wonder if I go back and look for a sexting scandal

Tue Jun 2, 2026, 05:12 PM

Tuesday

By a Republican if we said meh, or condemned him?
I'm pretty sure I know the answer but don't care enough to confirm it.

I will say the same as I said to people about Bill Clinton: marital infidelity is a matter between the spouses. It is a sign of poor character but in and of itself does not mean a person is automatically disqualified from office.
