Republicans Have A Duggar Problem: Here Is A Picture Of Molester Josh Duggar and Jeb Bush

The Josh Duggar molestation scandal has the potential of causing a major heading for another Republican contender as Duggar was photographed with Jeb Bush.

Back in January, Josh Duggar tweeted:

Bush isn’t the only Republican presidential contender with Duggar trouble. Scott Walker, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Bobby Jindal, Mike Huckabee, and Rick Perry have all had photos of themselves getting chummy with a child molester tweeted by Duggar.

At heart, the Republican Party is in the middle of the Duggar scandal because the GOP continues to pander to evangelical social conservatives like the Duggar family.

Social liberals outnumber social conservatives in the United States, but evangelical conservatives are vastly overrepresented in the Republican Party. The Republican presidential candidates have gone silent. Josh Duggar was one of their own. He was the executive director of the Family Research Council’s political arm, which means that Duggar came into contact and had access to the very top of the Republican Party.

At a time when Republicans should be universally condemning Duggar’s behavior, the GOP has gone silent. TLC, the network that airs 19 Kids and Counting, continues to have no comment. Everyone on the right appears to be trying to wait this scandal out, which is why it is vital that you don’t let that happen.

The Josh Duggar molestation scandal isn’t just a TLC problem. It is a Republican problem, as the hypocritically self-proclaimed party of family values has chosen stone cold silence over condemning sexual abuse.
