I’m asking all my #QAnons to ignore this #GOPPedoRing video by @MeidasTouch and do what Gym Jordan would do when informed about rampant sexual abuse: LOOK THE OTHER WAY! Thank you.

If you’re wondering why the @GOP was so comfortable making an incest-joking, teen-pageant abusing, serial sexual predator like Donald Trump their spiritual leader you haven’t been paying attention.

past puberty. I'm really kind of surprised someone hasn't said that. I do think though it's not the precise definition, people apply that term to any underage sex these days, as they should.

I did hear someone defend Roy Moore's past behavior with, "girls marry young down here". I know one thing. I'm in Idaho and back in the 70's, a creep in his thirties hitting on the girls would have gotten the shit beat out of him by the high school boys or some dads. No doubt about it.

In the 80s. It was creepy for a college age man to hit on a high school girl, let alone someone in thirties.

But a big part of me doesn't give a shit. They other part believes that we need to make a better example than they do.

I posted here a couple months ago that we should start calling these Qanons pedophiles because criminals always like to point in the other direction to distract from what they are doing. People were not too keen on the idea but ...... well now.

Insert a picture here.

It’s the one of trump with Ivanka when she was just a kid.

But it makes my skin crawl. She is next to him in the back seat of a limo, and he has her in that Jeffrey Epstein style “elbow around the neck me tarzan you jane pose”. He is kissing her on the head.

How do I insert a picture here from my photos on an ipad?? I took a screen shot of the picture when I discovered it on the internet.

OK, found the picture on this website. I love how they also show the same image doctored to turn Ivanka into Jeffrey.

But the one with Ivanka looks like the real deal to me.

Sway over our judicial system. Would not be surprised. His international influence is astounding.

Oddly, I remember when Mitt Romney voted yes to impeach Trump (was it only #1 or both?).

When he took questions in front of the press, I remember he seemed almost fearful. I wonder if he was threatened about his vote.

Putin has people killed for less.

You could see everything in her face, “there’s nothing I can do.” There is no consequence harsh enough for daddy.

Sadly, there’s no legal punishment severe enough given his life of endless crime, especially his crimes against women and children.

Solution.

How about Chauvin gets convicted for Manslaughter one (I know, NOT likely at all), and Trump gets convicted of some nifty fraud stuff.

Then in a perfect world (although not real life due to where they would be confined according to our current judicial system), they get to be cell mates.

Oh, I would be infinitely happy.

Back in the 1st decade of the new millennium, a blogger called 'The Armchair Subversive' had a webpage compiling the quite numerous sex crimes committed by repugs up till then. If ever a project needed to be put front and center in the American psyche, it's drawing attention to the pattern - now spanning decades - of sex crimes committed by so-called 'family values' conservatives. The Meidas Touch has the right idea here, but there's so much material with which to work. Give the people more!

Over and over.

Don't forget, some abuse is learned, generational behavior. If victims believe that the abuse is normal and happens to everyone, they will do the same thing to the next generation. so, unfortunately, voters who live with abuse, who haven't realized it is abuse, think the perverted behavior is normal and thus okay.

But people who are elected to public office, and people who gain positions of power have ample opportunity to be enlightened about abuse and have absolutely no excuse to perpetuate abuse ever. Except it satisfies their lust for power.

All of us who understand that abuse isn't normal just have to keep saying it isn't normal or acceptable. We never know if our words are going to open a window or a door.
