So...Jerry Falwell Jr. liked to watch the pool boy bang his wife.

[MarianJack]

Republican/fundamentalist family values in action.

Wow.

#notmypresident

RESIST

[MontanaMama]

1. It is always the folks who stand on their self proclaimed moral high ground

and point fingers at others...THEY are the ones who have skeletons in the closet. Let it rain truth on these hypocrites!!!

[2naSalit]

5. +1

[NightWatcher]

2. They love to be subservient to authority figures that will rule them hard, fast, and good.

god, trump, Giancarlo (apparently)

[Leghorn21]

3. Well, when you put it like that,

YEP, HE SURE DID

[PJMcK]

4. I suspect Falwell was doing more than just watching

(wink)

[2naSalit]

6. ...

[Raster]

7. I suspect he was also, and I do hope Gian* has video...

... in kink-land it's called cuckold, cuckolding...

https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Cuckold

A man who willingly encourages his wife to sleep with other people because it brings him pleasure. Cuckolds exist on a spectrum between two extremes. One on end is the masochistic cuckold who enjoys humiliations, degradation, and other demeaning activities at the hands of his wife and her lover. The alpha cuckold lies at the opposite end of the spectrum and does not enjoy any form of humiliation and often has a direct say in who his wife sleeps with and when.

I'm gonna say ol' Jer-Jer* probably fancies himself a bit of both.

[fleur-de-lisa]

8. No doubt.

[malaise]

9. I have long suspected that the Con and his goons knew about this

So ?is he now free for the parting of the ways from the Con? This could be interesting.

[PJMcK]

16. You're right

Apparently, Michael Cohen took care of some sexual hush money payments for the Falwells. Cohen then was instrumental in getting Falwell's endorsement for Trump in 2016.

So, Trump owns Falwell. Or at least he did. That's the thing about blackmail: If you come clean, the pressure is off.

Isn't just amazing how everyone around Trump is compromised?

[malaise]

18. Well he just freed himself

Oh My!

[BannonsLiver]

10. ...

[cwydro]

11. I think this pool boy guy would have said so, don't you?

I know that disappoints so many here who wasn’t to make it somehow a (gasp!) gay thing.

[PJMcK]

19. Perhaps you misunderstood me, cwydro

I'm pretty sure Falwell was "enjoying himself" while watching his wife and Granda.

As far as gay, bi or whatever, who cares? In the end, it's Falwell's profound hypocrisy that makes this story important.

[cwydro]

24. Not you specifically, but there've been a lot of giggling here about him being with the pool boy.

I’m sure you’re absolutely right about him “enjoying himself,” lol.

[blugbox]

31. I think the giggling about him being with the poolboy

Is because he is supposed to be representing conservative evangelical christians who DO view that as completely reprehensible. People here wouldn't and shouldn't care about the actual act... just the hypocrisy on his end based on his own beliefs.

[cwydro]

32. Oh, I've got to disagree.

There's lots of giggling on this board about gay sex and plenty of gay slurs.

Count yourself lucky if you've missed them.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

12. I assume this "pool boy" is/was at an age of consent?

If so, this is none of our business. If nobody was under age, and not coerced, they're welcome to enjoy whatever.

If Jerry should feel bad about anything, it's his butting into other people's business.

[Volaris]

15. I agree (mostly) with your statement.

At least as far as I can see, not one of us cares what he puts in his mouth. The issue is what comes out of it. I'm very much looking forward to the day when the Log Cabin Republicans finally get pissed, put their foot down hard on this kind of hiprocrasy (that otherwise not a liberal in the nation gives a damn about to begin with), and outright END this front of the culture wars once and for all.

[lostnfound]

28. Hypocrisy. Falwell president of Liberty. Wife spoke at CPAC re family values and morality.

Selling parents on a conservative Christian education where the length of skirts is dictated and no kissing or dancing is allowed,

Liberty U has had this man as its President from 2007 through 2020.

[Volaris]

13. His calculation here was 'better a cuck than a bottom'. I expect this gun to go off in his waistband

[Elwood P Dowd]

14. Their family values are superior because they go 3 ways.

[Volaris]

17. And it saves money, cause you're paying said poolboy in 'services traded' rather than cold hard cash

[OAITW r.2.0]

20. Do the Falwell's have any kids?

If they do, this will be extremely difficult to explain....

[MoonRiver]

21. Unfortunately, probably not

[obamanut2012]

26. They have three kids n/t

[Yavin4]

22. Back in the 90s, they would blame this on Clinton's penis.

I wonder who/what they will blame this on?

[RussBLib]

25. Clinton's penis

It set off DECADES of moral rot, don'cha know?

[SoCalNative]

27. OBAMA'S FAULT!

donchaknow!

[Funtatlaguy]

23. 11th Commandment: Thou shalt only commit adultery if I watch.

[kskiska]

29. Trump's followers don't care

because they're used to their religious leaders behaving this way. It doesn't take much for them to believe their chosen political leader's life with his multiple marriages and sexual activities are okay, too.

[tanyev]

30. The pool boy was 20 when they got involved with him.

And, yes, that makes him a consenting adult, but it also makes him the same age as all the students at Liberty University. That adds an ick factor for me. How many students did the ‘first couple’ of LU fantasize about before they found a good looking young man who lived a safe distance away?
