Jerry "likes to watch"


Jerry Falwell was the first major evangelist to endorse Trump. Maybe he felt that he had found a kindred spirit.  
Giancarlo Granda says he was 20 when he met Jerry and Becki Falwell while working as a pool attendant at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach hotel in March 2012. Starting that month and continuing into 2018, Granda told Reuters that the relationship involved him having sex with Becki Falwell while Jerry Falwell looked on.
Granda showed Reuters emails, text messages and other evidence that he says demonstrate the sexual nature of his relationship with the couple, who have been married since 1987. “Becki and I developed an intimate relationship and Jerry enjoyed watching from the corner of the room,” Granda said in an interview. Now 29, he described the liaisons as frequent – “multiple times per year” – and said the encounters took place at hotels in Miami and New York, and at the Falwells’ home in Virginia.
Of course there is another potential reason for Falwell's embrace of Trump.
 We know that Cohen struck up a relationship with Falwell as far back as 2011/2012. We know that he got involved in helping keep the couple’s secrets, including hushing up compromising photos of Becki. It was as late as 2015 when Cohen helped the Falwells deal with the photos — photos which were apparently connected to another fit young man close to the couple.
...Even if Cohen never reminded the Falwells what he knew about them … even if he said outright he’d never use it against them (perhaps especially if he said this), Falwell knew that Cohen (and almost certainly Trump) knew information that could destroy Falwell’s life. In other words, Cohen and Trump owned Falwell and Falwell certainly knew it.
All those Christian supporters of Trump must feel good about extortion, not to mention adultery and hypocrisy.   Sort of turns "two Corinthians" into a threesome.
