As I grow older I keep thinking I won't be surprised/amused/alarmed by further examples of broken human thinking but nope. It just keeps coming.
The idea that Donald J. Trump is a white knight in the fight against child exploitation must be doubly hurtful to his victims.
Re-watch some classic '80s movies. Notice how the way men and women relate is kind of stalkery by todays standards, even if you're not woke.
Consider: Trump was a coked-up party boy rich kid revered by the coked-up party boy rich kids in Manhattan during the '80s. Do you think they were checking drivers licenses as they were banging hookers and strippers? Even if he didn't actually seek it out (a charitable assumption), it's very likely he's had sex with underage women.
Never mind the rape allegations, never mind the comments, the behaviour, the obvious personality / mental defects. Nope he's our ally in protecting underage women. Madness.
Litmus test: your 22 year old intelligent attractive daughter wants to be a staffer in a presidential campaign. You say avoid Bill Clinton, but hey Trump's a really good guy. Feel free to go on an overnight with him.

It's a long way from "person X shows telltale signs of being corrupt in the way that many people in his role have repeatedly been shown to be corrupt" (my position) to some wild conspiracy theory involving basic misunderstandings of medicine, chemistry, biology, people, politics, history, espionage ...
- scarface74 6y agoI don’t see the problem. According to the apologists, “both sides” have Presidents/Presidential candidates that are publicly recorded joking about forcibly “grabbing women by the pussy”. He called Ted Cruz’s wife “ugly” and Cruz is still supporting him.
