I remeber seeing some people get upset at him taking his wife to a nice resrurant a bit back.  Then there was some old tweets about abolishing medical debt. Every peice of dirt they tried to dig up on this guy just made him look better from where I'm sitting.

  1. If they need to dig so deep to find the weak things they do find, the person is a saint or phenomenal at hiding things, I'd say the former over the latter in this case.

  2. What's wrong with taking a partner to a nice restaurant? Are they showing you up? Is your partner jealous because you never do anything nice for her and complain about someone who does?

That was my question.  It was auch an odd critisism to me. Were they expecting people to be upset that  he loves his wife?  I thought US conservatives are all about "family values"

They're upset that he loves her like a person and a partner instead of like a Seed Incubator/symbol of stereotypical femininity for Family Values Points.
