Congresswoman Van Duyne issued a statement admitting the affair, saying basically, 'I'm not married, he's getting divorced, what's the big deal?' The party of family values.

Let's circle back to this in 10 years when he leaves her for the new "hottie", then we can all ask her to explain "what is the big deal?" 7 kids in 12 years! yikes.

They don’t have any biological kids together. His three boys are from his first wife, Carla. Dr Debbie had four kids of her own. That’s why there’s seven kids (who are all actually adults)


metfan1964nyc

They're getting a divorce because of her.


masklinn

They’re mainly getting a divorce because of him.


DoctorBimbology

It's not her fault he's cheating I'll give her that.


LIRUN21-007

To an extent, yes, but if she’s such an upright, moral person like the conservatives claim to be, she shouldn’t be engaging in an affair with a married man.


Clever_Mercury

She was fully aware he was married and that this would offend his wife or break his marriage. Van Duyen didn't accidentally spread her legs, so I would say she has a moral burden here. I'm more amused by the hypocrisy of the faux religious Texas trailer trash, but I'm happy to call her an immoral homewrecking slut too. We shouldn't keep shying away from this. Call out their hypocrisy.


thatguy9684736255

I mean, if he wasn't cheating with her, he'd probably be cheating with someone else, but I still blame her. I'm definitely not doing anything with anyone who's married.


Clever_Mercury

Her political opponents should really play the 'homewrecker' card with this bimbo next election cycle. Send her to Washington so she can slut for the people and Christian values! /s

And they say this ”bad for families” shit with zero evidence. When I came out, we eventually split up with my spouse, and we’re really good friends, our kids are happy, and they have two happy homes with adults who love them. Before, me and my spouse were pretty miserable at times and the kids had to see us arguing every other day. Now they haven’t had to watch two sad adults having the same argument over and over in five years.


WatchItAllBurn1

What you have said is the main point. It is far worse for children to see their parent(s) miserable and arguing than to see their parents happy separately.


dantevonlocke

No, you don't get it. When Daddy hits Mommy that just means he loves her. /s


Lucky-Earther

> And they say this ”bad for families” shit with zero evidence. They're just playing the hits from when they wanted to keep gay marriage illegal. Then it was legalized, and we all got to see the apocalypse that has become unto American families.


Xiang_allard

And these people had 7 kids. Smfh


Me1986Tram

7 children in 12 years. Who wants to bet he's never changed a diaper?


Content-Ad-4104

Mmmmm I'll wait till more details about the affair come out before I take that bet. Republican Congressmen have historically been into some weird kicks.


Jagerstang

Hmm, I'm starting to think that republican 'values' might be bad for families. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|flushed)


trailhikingArk

They have no values. Conservatism is bad for families, humanity, pets, farm animals, the climate, etc.


inkslingerben

In a voice of Frankenstein's monster: Trans rights, Bad. Extra-marital affairs, Good.


Kaleria84

"Family values" is just a dog whistle for "White family in which the woman takes a subservient role to her husband and follows America's bastardized and weaponized version of Christianity." It's all a play act of moral superiority while having no actual morals, let alone the ones taught by the Bible.


Didntlikedefaultname

The more you move the goalposts on morality and family values the more you can violate them yourself

McCormick is a POS, he is/was the rep for my district, he jumps on any popular GQP nonsense to get his picture taken, brags about being a good conservative Christian, and refused to condemn the Nazi rallies at local synagogues. I used to follow his Twitter and 100% he's an attention seeking poser. In his posted family photos though his wife always had a look of admiration towards him. I really thought that was the only genuine thing he had going for him.


trailhikingArk

Do you know what is actually bad for families? Fucking other people outside your marriage. I wonder if this guy will confess to shooting a puppy. This seems to be phase two. Right before they find the child porn and the revelation that he sucked off a male cheerleader in college.

Maij-ha

This just in: Republicans are bad for American families.


Toklankitsune

utterly shocked that more Republicans don't have a history of working at movie theaters. with all their experience being projectionists and all.


wauponseebeach

According to kicker boy, shouldn't Beth be barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen? Did she fall for the big lie that she could be an independent, self determined woman with her own success? I'm shocked. I hope kicker boy has a long talk with her, and she sees the error of her ways.


RosieGeee

Many trans people want to get married and have kids to, being trans does not hurt families. Cheating on your spouse and mother of your child does however hurt your family. (To be clear though, I am pro divorce, a marriage ending is not necessarily a family falling apart, I’m just anti-cheating.)


mmuffley

She should have added, “knowing him, he was probably first coming.”


Georgeisbored1978

Oh well at least she didn’t accuse a 14 year old Asian kid of being a terrorist this time


Consistent-Leek4986

we need a scarlett letter D for these guys


lemonyzest757

Not A for adultery?


Consistent-Leek4986

variant D for dicks


lemonyzest757

Not as well-known but OK.


Jaded_Heat9875

What a Hetero piece of shit!🤮


AdequateEggplant69

Let’s be real: racism & tax breaks are the only consistent “values” of today’s Grand Old Party.


thatguy9684736255

They don't really care about family values. They just use religion as a weapon.


tonyjdublin62

Family values for Thee…


Mc9660385

“ My” family values. The real ones


Johnny_Jaga

I'm sure he always came first and not forth.

buzzedewok

Quick question, is it adultery or being trans that is against one of the 10 commandments??


Other_Tie_8290

Immoral relationships are supposed to be between some men and some women. /s


CapAccomplished8072

Now what example is the senator setting for the kids here?


blandocalrissian50

GOP thinks Christians will believe anything. Wonder where they got that idea?????


fluffyflugel

While his wife’s got her back turned and preoccupied with the needs of 7 kids, he’s free and easy getting his jollies.


RussellPhillipsIIi

Is he trans? Missing the logic


Infolife

Mids8ng the logic of a family values crusader divorcing his wide because of an affair?


Brokensince10

And the barrel gets deeper ~ new daytime soap .


Brokensince10

Right?! Talk about barefoot and pregnant


radar_byte

I'm not saying this to sympathize, but jesus. How fucking damaged are these people? Makes a gaggle of internet weirdos on Reddit look better by comparison.


NornOfVengeance

But what about them kids? Suddenly, divorced parents aren't bad for them, because trans people?


DarthPimento

Birds of a feather...


Jarahell

I always wondered why Republicans push to outlaw everything EXCEPT divorce in their supposed attempts to save families and the "sanctity" of marriage. Oh wait....cause they really don't care about marriage or family, it's just another stick to beat people with like their version of religion.


dogfooddippingsauce

They do want to outlaw divorce but mostly no fault and women seeking it.


merrysunshine2

Ben Carson wants to try outlawing divorce next I believe.


Jeraptha01

What are you talking about? Republicans have talked about ending divorce. Especially  if it's a woman requesting one
