It's kinda amazing that our political discourse has gotten to the point where people will double down on anything. I feel like if a Republican presidential candidate got caught molesting a child the next big push from the party would be lowering age of consent.
Yeah I saw. Poor timing and a bit of wishful thinking on my part.
... Huh?!
The post on /all about a gop official advocating for child marriage?
I've seen it now. I wish I hadn't...
That and dear leader shit goblin is certainly a child rapist
IIRC the victim was 13 at the time so the GQP might need to play with the numbers a bit
Did you know a number of states have fought efforts to raise the age of consent or marriage with parental approval?
See, now I was to an extent kidding, but if you go back to /all there's an article right there that I'd almost be tempted to say was poor timing on my part.
