Lots of people have perfectly clean backgrounds. I have to get a full criminal background check every year for a junior high school I volunteer at teaching computer science. It comes back clean each year, and there are lots of people who wouldn't get jobs if their background checks didn't come back clean. I've had two jobs that did full criminal and even financial background checks in the process of hiring.
Adultery and crimes for which you were never charged aren't in a background check. Doesn't mean there aren't people in your life w pictures of you dressed as Hitler or waving a confederate flag drunk on SoCo or something
Well, good for me that I've never committed adultery, dressed up as Hitler, or waved the Confederate flag around. Seems pretty simple to not do stupid shit like that. π€·ββοΈ
I never said I don't have dirt if it came to me running for office. I've smoked weed, am not Christian, go to AA meetings sometimes. Typically that's not the kind of candidate who would even win mayor. If you want to discuss such things I'll be happy to, I'll own up to such things, and you're right that such things are often relatable, and addiction is a disease that affects all sorts of people across all spectrums. But when you set the very low bar of not committing adultery (which wouldn't keep you from owning a gun) or not dressing up as Hitler (still wouldn't stop one from owning a gun), it's easy to be squeaky clean.
Well, your version of clean and shiney is "not committing adultery or dressing up as Hitler," that's an easy bar to beat. Never said I didn't have dirt if I were running for office, voters don't seem to like people who sometimes go to AA or are not Christian. Those are two right there that are my "dirt" I'll readily own and discuss if you want. It's not dressing up as Hitler, but I suppose it's still something a lot of people may not appreciate in their political candidates. It's just that those things have nothing to do with background checks or even job applications in most cases. And I can also easily buy a gun, because such things wouldn't prevent me from practicing the second amendment.

Personally i have less respect and much suspicion for anyone so shiny. Most dirt is relatable and should be owned instead of deflected and buried
