This is an absolutely foolish position. Paxton has had one or more affairs, which led to his wife separating from him in 2024 and divorcing him in 2025. He was cleared of bribery charges and had to make restitution to avoid prison time for a charge of securities fraud. So obviously there are problems with him on a personal level. But faced with a choice between him and Talarico, where voters will get one or the other, voters are far better off with Paxton. It is not even remotely close.
Paxton is solidly conservative and Christian in his policy positions, and I don't see him promoting any policies that justify errors in his own personal life or even see him using his office as Senator to brag about such things. Talarico, on the other hand, is a hard-left promoter of LGBTQ immorality and coercion (including a very strong push for transgenderism to minors and regarding males in female private spaces and sports), abortion, illegal immigration (and thus election scamming), restrictions on religious and civil liberty, etc., even trying to persuade people that these are all biblical positions. As a senator, he will promote the appointment of hard-left jurists to the court, which can have a deleterious impact for decades.
Paxton's personal life is unfortunate but, as long as he isn't promoting his mistakes to his constituents, that will have little impact on this and future generations relative to Talarico's possible election. This isn't a preference for power over personal immorality. It is a preference for a person whose personal failings will have a far less adverse moral impact on the nation than the alternative candidate. Of the two candidates the immorality being promoted by Talarico is far more cataclysmic to us all. There literally is no advantage to doing nothing to stop his election, unless one is both a masochist and a sadist.
Humanity, created by God in all its grandeur, is today facing a pivotal choice: either to construct a new Tower of Babel or to build the city in which God and humanity dwell together. In Jesus Christ, this humanity in its grandeur becomes the Way, the Truth and the Life, opening the path for each of us to grow toward fullness. #MagnificaHumanitas
