    Well it just goes to show the hypocrisy of evangelical and socially conservative voters. Jesus never said anything about gay people but there is a direct quote from Jesus in the book of Matthew about divorce. Trump is on his third wife and was unfaithful at least once if news reports are to be believed.

    What a choice: The old and confused current president hands out bombs with one hand and humanitarian aid with the other. The other option is a rapist and criminal up to his eyeballs in debt for his misdeeds. These are symptoms of a system that is breaking down.

      Trump has never been convicted of rape. Liberals keep repeating that but it’s a a libelous comment to make. Trump has never been charged with rape

          Facts are not simping. Trump has not been convicted or even charged with rape.

          Why do you hate facts? It’s strange how the left lies then thinks if they repeat them lie, someone will believe them.

            You don’t need to be convicted in a court to be a rapist, nor to be called a rapist. Convicted in a court requires the highest burden of proof. That’s not the level of proof we require for general discussions, nor is it for who should or shouldn’t be a candidate for president.

              You actually do. If we used the same criteria we used for Trump then Biden is a rapist as well.

                So then OJ isn’t a murderer, is that your stance?

                If we used the same criteria we used for Trump then Biden is a rapist as well. Why, who did Biden rape? What credible evidence is there? What even remotely convincing facts exist to suggest that Biden raped anyone?

                  No, OJ is not a murderer. He was acquitted of a crime.

                  Tara Reade. There is more evidence that Tara Reade was assaulted by Biden than Trump assaulted Jean.

                    No, OJ is not a murderer. He was acquitted of a crime.

                    So the civil jury that found him guilty committed libel? If someone is found guilty of voluntary manslaughter, you think that means people in casual conversation couldn’t call them a murderer?

                    If you want to call biden a rapist because you think Tara Reade’s account is credible, that’s fine. Go for it. But people are allowed to look at the facts as they see them and make judgments. And just because a jury doesn’t convict someone that doesn’t mean they didn’t commit the crime

        “Trump is a convicted rapist” and “Trump is a rapist” are not the same.

        He wasn’t convicted due to the statute of limitations (~12 years for rape). We don’t need to have a conviction to know he is a rapist.

        So quit the bullshit.

        My mistake. I suppose if you asked most Americans if they would vote for a rapist, they’d give you a resounding No.

        But what if you ask them, would you vote for a sexually abusive forced digital penetrator? One with a reputation for walking into beauty pageant dressing rooms and dozens of accusations of sexual impropriety going back for years? It seems many Americans would say Yes, uwu!

          No, he is not a rapist, as he never had sex with that woman, but either way, rape is a crime, and he was not convicted of a crime.

          Maybe you should read the difference between civil court and criminal court.

          It is funny to see the liberals use the terms all wrong while being so confident. Trump was never charged with a crime. It was a civil claim that was hog wash.
