    Besides the child-fucking, I thought prostitution was illegal? Or does that not matter for the elitists like Gaetz?

    It’s too late at night for me right now, but did Gaetz ever get on Trump’s bad side?

    Is it possible he’s using Gaetz to test the waters of his nominees, or is he using the nomination to humiliate Gaetz? Has Trump responded to the scandal?

    It seems odd that Trump would purposely trigger infighting before he took office.

    The craziest thing is that this didn’t come out when vetting the candidate for AG, he is using AG position to escape this investigation.

      This was all public knowledge, the DOJ just dropped the charges instead of prosecuting him because Merrick Garland is a useless piece of shit.

      At first I was “yes it is fine, so he hired a prostitute” then:

      At least one of the girls was below the age of consent

      Ah. Gotcha.

        Ya I was being sarcastic. There’s nothing fine about anything in this new administration but here we are and so I’m just gonna check the fuck out. America is full of TikTok and Facebook dumbasses

          Oh I totally got the sarcasm!

          I have considerable sympathy for the American people and pity for the ones who think they want this. Unfortunately for my country we tend to import quite a lot of American culture and seeing what’s coming is worrisome.
