Adultery isn't illegal
Not true. Depends on location.. technically speaking, but I don't believe it get enforced on the regular


The Crime of Adultery in Michigan
While some argue that the law is archaic, adultery is considered a felony in Michigan. Generally speaking, felonies in the state are punishable by at least one year in jail. According to the statute, anyone who commits adultery while they are still married has committed a crime. When an unmarried person commits adultery with a married person, they may or may not have committed a crime, depending on their gender.

A single man who commits adultery with a married woman is technically guilty of a crime in the eyes of the law. On the other hand, an unmarried woman that commits adultery with a married man is not considered guilty under the law.

J tapdancing C you are really all in in this huh? I mean, if it makes you feel good to call women whores or sluts them go for it. But to see more outrage over a middle finger than the denigration of women is perplexing (not really when it comes to VN but we can pretend).

I was speaking to adultery alone because it an interesting different standard for both parties... As far as Harris and her past.. It is what it is... She can be whatever she wants... I'm not gonna blame any person who uses any advantage they can to improve their life.. Which she did... My issue come after she "moved up," she had been a complete disaster... And I've never heard her speak or against being a whore etc.. So in that respect she is not as hypocritical as Trump in that department.

Again, why the constant need to call her a whore?

You used it...I was responding with what's in your post...I don't believe she is a whore just committed adultery... I'll admit I thought she was referred to a escort by a paper at one point... But haven't been able to confirm it. At that point I no longer cared about her sexually past much like Trump's.. I'm worried about what she will do for the country.. Her personal stuff is just noise...

You turned this into a party thing? A lot of deep thought went into that analysis. Geez.
 
Parties involved in adultery, follow the conversation.. Not political. But pj did bring up Trump first... You can do better
I don't think American's care about Adultery anymore. It is not the number 1 reason people divorce and hasn't been in a while. So very much a moot point and a waste of time debating it.
Just because somebody brings it up doesn't mean it has to be addressed. Again, another point people throw into the fire to get a rise. It is a difference of opinion, take it to church and pray about it, you are not going to change anybody's opinion.
My kid's would say Well he started it and my reply was well you engaged in it when you should have just ignored it and moved on.

I agree.. It doesn't matter anymore...I was more interested in the double standard of 1 side ( married) being guilty and the other ( single knowing person) not guilty even tho both are engaged in the same act... Its like not calling someone a rioter even tho they were rioting but others did not damage...my point was adultery was the act and all involved are guilty of it... But I believe the actual history of political figures of pointless especially with today sexual tevoy of basically any thing goes.. No one has a high ground

I don't think it is a double standard at all. It comes down to common sense, logic, and opinion.
One judge and jury no matter what one human thinks. IOWs, humans will not make the call. Does forgiveness play into it as well.

A married man on a business trip picks up a hooker that does not know he is married. Is she guilty of adultery or not? She is sinning but did not sin as an adultress?
Forgiveness for her other sins may play into this as well.

We had a married Peodiophil and emblezzer as "Speaker of the House" all sins and I guess you could add adultery to it. Was it a sin if it was overlooked by those that knew?
Rioting has no business in this conversation it is a concern but different.

Your speaking religiously.. That's never been brought up... The definition and legal standards held in different jurisdictions hold those involved in adultery differently.. That's my point.. I'm not gonna speak to a religious aspect of sin.. And the rioting example is perfect because rioting like adultery is the act.... What we call those engaged in those acts is where the double standard comes in legally... But definitionally both are adulters...

that's a good boy rite there
Again, not sure exactly who she was trying to reach by burning that much money on an ad buy for a televised event watched by an astonishingly high percentage of Trump voters. I mean, how many SEC football fans planning to vote for Trump saw that as and thought, you know, she made a good point. I’m switching my vote.
It made about as much sense as it would for Trump to advertise on the View or the stupid late night talk shows
 
Again, why the constant need to call her a whore?
No need from me. Her terrible policies speak for themselves.
It is tempting to bring up however when Dems start harping on Trump’s indiscretions. And we won’t even need to mention Bill Clinton or JFK.
Neither side really has a platform from which they can safely throw stones
