When Politicians Cheat On Their Wives

I couldn’t make the sound work on that clip. It makes me mad when polititians tell everyone else how to behave then we find out that they have been cheating. Why shoud we respect them after that.

It matters because politicians tend to tell us what we should do. If they are going on about family values etc while they are cheating on their partner they are hypocritical. Also if they think it is OK to lie and cheat in one aspect of their lives why should anyone trust them in public life.

IF politicians would stick to matters that concern a civil society, like the economy, infrastructure, and relationships with other countries to name a vew things, and refrained from delving into those matters that are personal in nature, their behavior in their own personal lives would be a rendered moot.

The best way to solve this conflict between their cheating and what they present as the ideal way to live, is for them to stop trying to dictate how people behave in their private lives.
