I don't feel divorce, alone, is a reason to doubt someone's judgement in the grand scheme of things. Divorce happens.

But serial adultery, including parading your mistress in front of your children and attempting to move her into the home you share with your children and wife, surrounding yourself with cronies who are involved in criminal behaviors and indicted on such does constitute a history of judgement that is not trustworthy.

That, plus rudi's stance on immigration and gun control is enough for me. There are other issues but those character and border safety issues are plenty to prove to me that he is not the man for the job.

“That, plus rudi’s stance on immigration and gun control is enough for me.”

I do get soooo tired of having to repeat myself.

What did you expect the Mayor of a major city to do vis-a-vis immigration when a) the Federal Government doesn’t do what it’s suposed to do, and b) when the elected legislatures of both the City and State declare the city a “sanctuary” either tacitly or overtly?

I ask the same question, vis-a-vis your gun control comment.

The Mayor of NYC does NOT WRITE THE LAWS and does not have the ability to just “do” things because he wants to. He is an administrator, not a legislator. Stop blaming the man for things that were beyond his control and outside his powers as Mayor to change.

The rest of the record is there for anyone to see: lower taxes, smaller government, more responsive government, cleaner streets, less crime, economic prosperity.

As for the personal character issues, fine, you’re entitled to an opinion on these, and I never said you weren’t. My objection was based on the fact that those who cite them seem to ignore the same shortcomings in people they have lionized.
