    Seeing that this dates back to the time of J. Edgar Hoover, I would say that this is very questionable.

    Later in life and after his death, Hoover became a controversial figure as evidence of his secretive abuses of power began to surface. He was found to have exceeded the jurisdiction of the FBI,[2] and to have used the FBI to harass political dissenters and activists, to amass secret files on political leaders,[3] and to collect evidence using illegal methods.[4] Hoover consequently amassed a great deal of power and was in a position to intimidate and threaten others, including sitting presidents of the United States.[5]

    What does the 'Statue' represent?
    Was the Person perfect, or did he (she) represent something to commemorate or admire?
    Should MLK Statues be torn down because he had a few (45) extra-marital affairs, completely inconsistent with Christian teachings (and he being a Christian Minister), or should he be remembered for his fight and stand on Black Equality.
    TOP's implication extends to Washington and Jefferson, being Slave-holders, but at the same time being Founding Fathers of a Country that has at it's roots 'All Men are Created Equal'.

    therefore? Should Trump be impeached for infidelity?

    In my opinion, Government has no business judging a Politician's personal sex life.

    The more important question is: 'Should a Statue of Jefferson be removed because Jefferson was fucking his Slave Girl, Sally, his dead wife's half sister?'
    If you believe any indiscretions, any imperfections, any deviation from the Politically Correct, be reason to 'remove Statues' of Important People, than you would have to agree that Statues of MLK must be removed.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epicureanism

    "Epicurus was an atomic materialist, following in the steps of Democritus. His materialism led him to a general attack on superstition and divine intervention. Following the Cyrenaic philosopher Aristippus, Epicurus believed that the greatest good was to seek modest, sustainable pleasure in the form of a state of ataraxia (tranquility and freedom from fear) and aponia (the absence of bodily pain) through knowledge of the workings of the world and limiting desires. The combination of these two states constitutes happiness in its highest form."

    Obviously it's wrong to break a vow or an oath. It wasn't that long ago that it was a commendable trait among "white men" to bang a lot of women. Trump still brags about it although I doubt a truckload of Viagra and a crane could do him any good these days. Maybe that's why Steven likes him so much.
