You're not the only one getting those vibes.
I don't find it hard to visualize him making a well-rehearsed, tearful apology for spending church donations on prostitutes.
Like you said, it seems a bit unfair, but that's the vibe I get.
Looking at your post, I just thought about that photo where he was kissing his wife but looking at the camera. It looked so calculated. If you saw a video of it, it was probably someone getting his attention or some innocent explanation.
