convincing any woman that voting R is the best course of action has got to be the most heinous example of brainwashing/mind control in history

Oh, so it wasn't rape, he just likes to pay for sex... Which somehow isn't a massive national security concern...

If we started removing people for paying for sex we'd run out of people willing to work for trump.

Edit: this isn't intended as a diss towards sex workers since sex work is work... This is mostly about the trend recently where conservatives keep getting outted for paying for sex all the time despite having a wife/partner and actively voting against sex work.

Unfortunately it seems that our society will be bulldozed by these fucking monsters before any of them see true consequences for their actions. Meanwhile billions of people and the planet's temperature regulation system will be fucked over in the process.

Birds of a feather.
