    Just gonna share this from my post in Political Weirdos:

    You dare call the time I gave money to the underage girl I had sex with prostitution when she didn’t ask to be paid?!

      I’m just curious how many days before Christmas would it have to be for him to not refer to it as “Christmas Eve^N”.

      Is Christmas Eve-Eve-Eve too much? You can’t put a price on playing the victim.

      She didn’t have to ask. She wouldn’t have been there if there wasn’t some sort of compensation. That’s a given in sex contracts. He didn’t give her a ring or propose. He didn’t profess true love. Betting it’s not the only underage girl either. Most would be afraid to speak up. He just got caught on this one. Remember, deny, deny deny - the Republican motto.

      We shouldn’t need someone to be convicted of a crime in order to stop electing them. Hitting on a 20-year old is bad enough lmao

    I keep seeing that he didn’t know the girl was underage at the time of their first encounter as if that makes it ok? I thought the law didn’t give a shit about, “sorry I didn’t know she was underage”.

      Oh, you thought the laws that apply to you and me apply to him! That’s where you got mixed up.

      Devil’s advocate: The FBI falls under the executive branch. Maybe allowing the executive branch to police Congress like that is seen as an unhealthy power imbalance from a higher perspective.

    This is a fantastic representation of the majority of voters in America. Complete scum.
