@Metal-Brain saidHave you ever heard of statutory rape?
Nobody accused Gaetz of rape.
Since when did consensual sex become sex trafficking?
This means children who are not adults and therefore too young to give informed consent, especially in the face of coercement.
What the hell is wrong with you?
Are you a pedophile too?

@spruce112358 saidWhat witnesses?
Any allegation that lacks witnesses or corroborating evidence is dismissible. 🙂
I'm not a fan of #MeToo.
But MG did it in front of witnesses, showing what sort of person he is: a wannabe porn star.

@spruce112358 saidAnd somehow I keep wondering how Trump got elected.

Jerry Lee Lewis married his 13 year old cousin.
You'd be flatly laughed out of court with a defense like this.
None of your whataboutisms save you from the law.

@Metal-Brain saidMarrying a child (under age 18) is legal in 37 US states.
Jerry Lee did not break the law. It was perfectly legal.
According to data compiled by Anjali Tsui, Dan Nolan, and Chris Amico, who looked at almost 200,000 cases of child marriage from 2000 to 2015:
67% of the children were aged 17.
29% of the children were aged 16.
4% of the children were aged 15.
Less than 1% of the children were aged 14 and under.
There were 51 cases of 13-year-olds getting married, and 6 cases of 12-year-olds getting married.

Paying for sex with a 17 yo girl is illegal no matter how you want to slice it.
You are so fervent in your defense of Trump you defend anyone he picks for his bogus cabinet. a cabinet of yes men because he has sinister plans to take over everything.

@sonhouse saidGrabbing Tara Reade's pussy is illegal too. You are showing your partisan bias again. Why do you only believe allegations against republicans? Biden is a pussy grabber.

Gaetz was investigated and they didn't find anything. That means they didn't have enough evidence.
