Isn’t the age of consent 17 in some states?

Also, stop telling us about stuff you don’t release. Release it.

In some states. But not the states he was in. Plus, he likely trafficked her across state lines, which is a whole other set of charges.

People in Congress already hate his guts, this will give them an objective reason to vote him down without drawing the wrath of trump. I mean he’ll fume about it, but most normal congress people aren’t going to stick their necks out for a proven pedophile.

Trump is nominating so many fucktards, you’d almost think the strategy is getting mired in conflicts about his staff picks for the first 2 years, get nothing done, and then associating the dissenting Republicans with Democrats (These RINOs joined the America-hating Democrat socialists…) to drum them out in primary so he can install some even further rightwing dipshits.

Unfortunately there could be a video of him r*ping an underage girl while she’s holding her id up to the camera and repeatedly stating her age and roughly half the population wouldn’t care.

A third wouldn’t care, a third would jack off to it and you know sanity is in a minority.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
