And Trump isn't an aberration for the republicans.
I've frequently noted this little gem, it was even my sig here for quite a while:
"I pledge to uphold the institution of marriage through personal fidelity to my spouse and respect for the marital bonds of others."
This pledge was imposed (inflicted?) on Newt during the Iowa republican primary by some state conservative leaders that actually object to republicans pandering to them and their beliefs, and instead, actually expect them to also comport themselves accordingly too. Pretty radical stuff, no ??

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
