You mean another psychopath

I'm sure Colin Allred wishes he had waited a couple years so he could run against Paxton instead of Cruz... but he'd still lose.

The only failure was in the Senate Republicans to put principle over party. There was plenty of evidence to prove the allegations.

There was zero evidence.

ZERO

Is this the one where all the witnesses were talking **** then promptly shut up under oath?

The Dems could have run a real pastor against Paxton perhaps, and it might have been a threat. But a real pastor would be against too many of their sacrosanct beliefs

The Bible is chock full of flawed and sinful leaders being elevated by God and used for His purposes…even some who did exactly what Paxton is accused of doing. In this case, between the two candidates, one will carry out God's mission and message WAY more than the other, though he may be flawed. Christians should support that candidate.

This is not an endorsement of the fake vegan preacher. This comes from working with many families suffering from one spouse's adultery.

I wonder how many people who support Paxton and say the adultery doesn't matter, have either been in a marriage with adultery, or been really close to somebody who has gone through that? The act (not the physical or emotional part with the other party, but the lying to a spouse on such a deep level) is severe. It isn't something people handle easily, unless they've so adjusted their lifestyle to deceit and dishonesty.

The person being cheated on is often completely demoralized and hurt. The family around them suffers the pain as well. The adulterer suffers beyond just whatever happens in their marriage. If they aren't accustomed to such a deceitful lifestyle, the initial excitement gives way to paranoia, anxiety, and other stresses. Its an all around horrible situation and everybody suffers. The only real joy are the encounters with the affair partner. Which, when you think about the context of a marriage is just horrible. The only joy in the life of an adulterer and his/her spouse, is when the adulterer is doing the act that causes all the pain to the other person. Your joy is hurting the person you swore to love and care for in front of God, your friends, family - and that person.

In politics its easy to dismiss such acts because the other side is so bad. But in order to be the type of person who commits adultery multiple times and continue on with life, has such a lack of character and respect for the sanctity of marriage, a person to whom he/she pledged to be with for life, and the obligations we have to be honest and forthright. To be such a deceitful and dishonest person is hard. If its not hard, to me, that's even worse.

Sometimes, the scenario you describe is absolutely true. Sometimes, it's not.

Many things happen inside a relationship that may cause the relationship to break down. There may be physical or mental abuse, there may be substance abuse, in some cases, people just grow apart.

Point is, we don't know the complete ins and outs of the Paxton marriage and why it failed. At least I don't know, and I have no reason to know. I do know it failed, and that is very unfortunate. And I know it had been on the rocks and they had been living apart for a year before the infidelity accusations arose. But I don't think we have enough information to break it down much further than that.

Too much estrogen bruh.

Never cheated.

Don't like cheaters.

Most are voting against Talarico. Period. It's not hard. Not even close. And to not vote over it is wild. They're judging a politician by his actions in politics. Much as they judge an artist by his work.

Maybe the artist cheats too.

But that doesn't take away from his art.

He's a senator. His only job is to put conservatives judges on courts, vote for conservative policy, and obstruct Democrats.

Where he sticks his junk matters not in that regard.
