      Let’s split the difference in a way that we can all agree.

      Five girls.

      If we’re going to be non-specific, let’s use the least minimizing term.

    The average American Trump supporter is a gun toting, neoliberal, bear shooting, death penalty supporting, misogynist, who believe that LGBT people should be stoned to death Old Testament style, a white supremacist, anti-vaccine, climate change denying, anti-evolution, anti- science, flat earth believing, pro-life, anti- intellectual, sanctimonious evangelical Christian, Islamophobic bigot. Chem trail obsessive, xenophobic and a racist. Also ignorant, stupid, perverted and possibly demented.

      Your accurate yet unavoidably incomplete list made me reflect on how much the term “pro-life” is inaccurate while also being propaganda spin bullshit. It is literally the term for a policy of the death cult wing of american politics. I know I’m preaching to the choir here, but god damn.

      I am a nature lover and animal lover. I come from a conservative redneck-ish family and one very strong correlation throughout my life has been that the more conservative somebody is, the more likely they are to openly brag about how much they would NOT spend money to help their own pets. Or even about how they would shoot them (usually a dog) if they ever did X.

      But that is part of a much larger package deal where those people define themselves by the things they hate and activities they avoid.

    This is a typical social media post with zero substantial proof. None of the main stream media sources are covering this.

    I’m not saying this is true or isn’t true.

    But the article does credit Katie Johnson as the source and there is reasonable doubt as to whether she even exists. The only person who claims to have spoken to her is a Jerry Springer Story Producer.

    What We Know About Origins of Trump Child Rape Allegations

    The reason why I say this is I think it’s important to be factual even when making allegations against scum like Trump. Any false rumor we spread is another victory for MAGA and the right. It’s a way for them to convince more people that the left is evil.

      It’s like the explosion in that one Invader Zim episode. Slow as shit, but inevitable.

      But hey, maybe I’m just too optimistic 🤷

        Because an election is coming up, not because they actually care.

        I mean, it should have stayed in the news the first time until it was followed by the story of how his child molesting ass was removed from office and dealt with. But know the media just skipped right along to the next bullshit that should have resulted in the same thing but didn’t. Just endlessly cycling through horrible shit.

    I don’t think there could be anything that would boost his popularity more amongst the MAGA and GOP.

    This is just such a strange thing to have to process. Even if you ignore the horror of it, even if you are totally pro child rape….thats just a strange argument to ever have. Normal people don’t have that sort of argument in their entire lives.

    And yet we have normal people rationalizing this whole thing. I don’t understand.

    Explosive report? The Katie Johnson allegations have been out there for YEARS. It’s about time someone actually focused on them.

    For years MAGA’s were talking about how they were “ alpha males “ and “ real Americans “ , now when they have a chance to show an ounce of courage they demonstrate that they cowards and supplicate themselves to trump.

      Remember when a lot of them were duped into protesting, terrorizing and harassing drag queens because focks nooz and other right-wing propaganda outlets claimed those were groomers.

      I wonder what’s going through their heads these days now finding their wannabe god emperor had been a legitimate documented pedo this whole time

        I saw a video today of some Trump Ladies with their Trump signs, and when asked about Trump being on the Epstein Files, they got super hostile, and said it was all lies. Their ability to ignore obvious facts is amazing.
