    Liberty University can suspend or fire him for whatever it wants to per their contractual relationship, i don't care in the slightest, and I have no idea what he deserves because I didn't know anything about him before reading this story. What I'm saying is there's nothing wrong with that photo, the photo is a giant nothingburger, and the folks who are firing him because he tricked them into thinking he's more moral than they are don't seem any different to me than the folks reveling in him getting fired for doing something that is not demonstrably immoral.

    Look, I'm a Trump supporter and admirer of Falwell Sr., but Jr. has a long string of questionable behavior. None of this has anything to do with Trump.

    Selling off university assets well under market and the renting them back for well over market to your personal trainer is not guilt by association. It is just flat out guilt.

    Just like Stormy Daniels, Jeffrey Epstein/Ghislaine Maxwell, and the 25 Women who have accused him of Sexual Assault?

    Got it.

    The photo gives the impression that he commits adultery, which is both immoral and a sin.

    Why is the soft right-wing dork exposing his fat belly and unzipped pants?

    Does he actually think he's some kind of a stud or something? LOL

    the folks who are firing him because he tricked them
    For someone who claims he doesn't know anything about him :)

    You are going out of your way to rationalize someone you don't care about.

    "Mixed up" but only as far as fake news media injects him into it. Or have you not read the victim testimony? What was it, 40 something questions by FBI agents trying to lead witnesses to name Trump and not a single one of them would do it.
    Anti-Trump activist judge allows frivolous civil suit that will never actually go to trial to move forward knowing it will end in dismissal but not before media gets to run with it come October.
    And as fun as it was to make this little list this is where the Trump connection stops because there is none to be made here.

    Wow.

    And you're the king of "this is fake outrage"....and then you post this massive ball of nothing?

    I have run out of words for the hypocrisy.

    I don't follow Falwell, Jr.

    I saw the thread title, Googled Falwell to see what was up. Got the "big scoop" (real story), which turns out to be a nothing burger.

    So. Meh.

    Why else would they be firing him?

    I don't like the idea that we can be judged guilty from a very likely innocent photo. This sort of demonization always starts with famous, controvercial figures before it moves out into the general public. I've no doubt similar photos exist of me where I had done nothing wrong.

    I'm betting you as well.

    Do you go around preaching about morality, have a church and a religious university. Your excuses for this man is pathetic.
