If he raised them, they are still his sons. Yeah wife cheated on him but that shouldn’t matter as far as the sons go.
Nope. A relationship founded on a lie doesn't mean the bond should remain.

The son isn’t the one who lied.
I’m not saying the father has an obligation to maintain the relationship, but it’s silly to think that it simply ends because of what his mom did.

I get his sentiment on the situation, but I’m not sure I could walk away from my sons, grandkids, and great grandkids just because my wife cheated on me decades ago.
Divorce? Absolutely. But my boy is only 4 and I can’t imagine a scenario where I’d walk away from the love I’ve built for him. These kids are 40 and 42.
The whole “deadbeat” angle makes things a little different I guess. I wonder how he felt about them before he found this out. If they were that bad maybe this is his chance to walk away relatively clean? Who knows. But then you’re still walking away from grandkids who did nothing wrong and don’t deserve to lose a grandfather. It’s a tough situation.

This. It’ll probably be easier to end it if he wants to because it sounds like the sons are POS. But you don’t snap your fingers and get rid of 40 years of memories.

42 plus years of being lied to. I think I'd kill a bitch.

That’s really sad. I feel so bad for the guy.

The sons just lost who they thought was their father for the past 40 years. They're a victim to their mother's infidelity as well.
(The whole deadbeat thing is something else.)

From where is this money going to materialize? You think his wife has her own bank account with enough cash she earned to recoup the million + dollars it most have cost him for raising these sons over the past 40 years?

Sucks he married a whore. He probably thought she was a gorgeous prize the whole time. If I loved those sons I’d consider them mine. Sounds like they are as pathetic as the dads though. Kinda makes a difference

The Jodys. They have likely accumulated significant assets over forty years and he had to raise their children. If nothing else, he can bankrupt them. It would pale in comparison to what they’ve done to him.

If my wife did THIS to me, that streak would be broken with a rabid quickness.

What does anything in your post have to do with the word "simp?"

There was a similar situation in my family. My cousin's daughters took a DNA test. They found out that the youngest girl has a different father. It destroyed the marriage but the husband continued to treat the girl as his own child. I don't think she has ever met her biological father.

It's way more common than men think.
Most married men are naive, they all think that they married a unicorn.

Frontline did a story on this some years ago .... in GB it was well over 20%.
The moral of their story was that women should have a right to breed with whom they please and still choose another for security and stability purposes. They claim it a natural evolutionary process that's been going-on for millennia.

Maybe I don’t understand “red-pilled” but why does this qualify? I thought its use, outside of the movie, was to signify someone who had switched to the conservative viewpoint.
Also, they might be someone else’s kids, but he took responsibility for raising them. It’s half his fault they are screw-ups.
Genghis Khan’s wife was raped and impregnated. He adopted the kid. I certainly would not have done so if I knew my wife had cheated, but given that I didn’t know, I would have raised them to be good men.
Tl;dr: That guy is a simp, and it’s no wonder his wife ran around on him.

Red Pilled means learning the truth about things.
The Judge learned the truth about female nature and how they really are, versus the Disney Fantasy he believed his entire life.
Thus he was Red Pilled, like in the Matrix where if they took the Red Pill they would learn the truth about the real world vs the Matrix programming.
