Breitbart: Urban Elites Dont Understand That Roy Moore Dating Teenagers Isnt Against Social Norms [View all]

“The media and the Democrats are piling on with allegations about Roy Moore wanting to date teenagers—it’s not illegal and at the time it wasn’t even a violation of social norms because unless you’re an urban elite provincial who doesn’t understand that there are different societies within America, 40 years ago it was not unheard of for a 30-year-old man to look for a much younger wife. And if he was trying to date a 16- or 17-year-old, I’m uncomfortable with that—I’ll admit that—but it’s not illegal. It’s not a violation of social norms.” – Breitbart columnist John Nolte, speaking this morning on their SiriusXM channel.
