I am sure there are some deplorable women out there that will be drawn to him because of what he represents.

He just has to find the venue.

There's real humans on Tinder. He should post his real name on something like NRA-Harmony.com. I'm sure there plenty of nut job women and men who would respond to a murderer if he could just target the right audience of racist, murdering people.

A dating website promising to match pro-Trump supporters has removed the main photograph from its homepage after local media identified one of the people portrayed in the image as a North Carolina conservative activist who has a child sex conviction.
