We have to stop giving folks the benefit of the doubt just because we agree with their policies. Keep in mind the "Do as I say, not as I do" party picked Walker over other qualified Senate candidates because Trump endorsed him. Now they are forced to defend him while trying to dig up dirt on an established Pastor with a college degree, political experience, and the ability to deliver coherent speeches.
If you call someone a liar, you may be assigned the task of proving they are a liar. Especially if that someone is keeping receipts. Especially if that person gave birth to one of your children. Especially if that person IS one of your children. I am not surprised that his ex-girlfriend (or "some alleged woman" according to Walker) kept receipts. Maybe she knew that one day he would have run for office with an anti-abortion platform. Walker is not the only anti-abortion politician who has financed an abortion himself. We all know this. We should not be surprised that what they say in the boardroom can be a complete contradiction of what they say in the bedroom.
I somewhat understand that they are looking at each other and saying to themselves "listen, this is really fucked up...but we need control of the Senate!!!" But I am also wondering why they aren't asking themselves how Walker became their only hope to defeat Warnock in Georgia. They put all their eggs in one handbasket and are prepared to ride that handbasket into hell in order to get that Senate seat.
The party of "moral values" is currently making Bill Clinton look like a Saint. Paying off a porn star that you boned while your wife was pregnant is nothing compared to getting a blowjob from an intern #sarcasm. The party of "moral values" is willing to sweep an abortion and a domestic violence conviction under the rug in order to be in control. If you have a R after your name, you can do no wrong. If you have a D after your name, they'll question the validity of your birth certificate and will bend over backwards to see what's on your son's laptop.
Simply doing what you are told can be a bad thing when you are following the orders of someone who themselves do bad things. Sometimes, there will not be a reward for your loyalty. Just a history of publicly endorsing bad candidates. God help us if Trump endorses Kanye West.
