This might be one of the dumber things they are trying to take him down for.BREAKING: Trump has just received a court summons today in a case alleging he is violating the Constitution (the foreign emoluments clause and the domestic emoluments clause).

I'm not sure I'd say radio silent. There have been a lot of people who have spoken out about his moral character, just the old guards (Falwell, Graham, Robertson, et al) are the ones out there defending Trump on this.No one cares that Trump had/probably is having affairs; that's an element of his character that has been public record for decades. The issue - for me - is that the hush payments are clear evidence that the President is blackmail able, which transcends this specific aspect. It is also not newsworthy to assert JFK boned everything that moved five decades ago.https://t.co/joy3nzWgVKKudos to the liberal Los Angeles Times for having the integrity to publish the truth about John F. Kennedy's disgusting behavior. "JFK may have been a worse philanderer than Trump."
But if you want to go down the morals path, in those intervening 50+ years, there is only one side of the political divide in this country that's built their brand on 'family values'. And that group has gone radio silent on that front since Trump happened. So it was apparently not so much of a core belief system; it was more like a hobby.

There is a massive gulf that exists between the 65+ age evangelicals and the rest about Trump.
I see and hear it all the time in my circles. The younger folk just don't have the media reach.
Godric, what joy do you get out of coming back time after time?
Which he can afford to do, because the government is taking your money to pay his salary.You can have your cynical view on that, but I know enough of his life (along with his compatriots Massie and Amash) to know differently.
His pro bono work in Latin America also speaks volumes.
He seems like a decent guy.He could have chosen a position/profession, which doesn’t rely on Uncle Sugar; I have one and it’s not difficult to find one.
Having said: we’re pretending that he lives up to his rhetoric and is different from blood suckers on the tax payers? Reality says differently.
Is he blackmail-able though? I think he's pretty much bulletproof to his base. Unless than have proof of him boning underage girls, I think his supporters would stand behind him even if it came out that he had 1000 affairs on Melania and eats Ivanka's bowel movements. And I actually have some doubt that they'd turn on him over underage girls, unless than were 15 or younger and not "hot" looking teens.

Recent history indicates otherwise:Is he blackmail-able though? I think he's pretty much bulletproof to his base.

that's right, I forgot. Another disappointing perception that current regime isn’t as bad/worse than your general characterization of government. Careful now - your partisan slip is showing.Is something going on in DC today? Oh, yeah... that's right... Trump and the fascist GOP "dictators" won't confiscate firearms fast enough!
Ya know, looking back thru history, nothing says "fascist dictator" like piddling around about grabbing guns.
So you’re saying Guinny’s standard perception of government is overblown? That should be a fun discussion to watch...It is true, Trump is the worst Fascist ever.
