Yes, how do conservatives, especially religious conservatives and family men and fathers of daughters reconcile support for a repeat adulterer, who has a thing for pornstars?

An argument can be made, and was made by Alexander Hamilton, that public and private virtue are two separate things. In Trump’s case his recent behavior strips him of any plausible claim to either form of virtue.

By utilizing a utilitarian philosophy to evaluate Trump: it’s not what he says, or who he is, or what he has done in the past; rather, it is what positive consequences would result from electing him. That’s how I deal with it, anyway.
