If the choice was between an innocent and guilty man then you would have an argument. Problem is the choice is between two guilty parties. That is the problem with your argument, you point out the guilt of one side and ignore the guilt of the other.
In politics, with so many being accused, all you have to say is that it's politically motivated and you're in free.

When can we kick politicians out of office? Seems never. Weinstein's career is ended, Kevin Spacey too. Hollywood is falling apart. But Franken is okay. John Conyers steps down from committee, but isn't going to resign ... or get kicked out. There's lots of examples, on both sides if the isle. Politicians can keep their jobs, while others that are politicians lose their job.

Or they then go on to get a good lobbying job, their own TV or radio show, or work for Fox news, MSNBC, or some other high paying job.

Politics has always been dirty, but it's now too dirty for any earnest Christian to be a part of.

But that's not stopping Christians today. They seem fine with immorality, as long as their party wins.
