Bevin v. reality

Gov. Matt Bevin can’t tell fiction from reality. In a recent radio interview, he said anyone who criticized Trump’s alleged sexual assaults is a hypocrite if they watch erotic movies or play violent video games because those things are “equally vulgar.” Excuse me, but the problem with Trump’s comments was that they implied he used his power to molest women without their consent, not that they were vulgar.

If Bevin honestly thinks it’s hypocrisy because someone doesn’t get offended when characters (not people, mind you, but characters), in a movie or a video game do the same thing then he is psychologically and emotionally unfit for office.
