He raped a 13 year old violently and there's probably video in those epstein files.
And? These allegations were also known since 2016. But that didn't stop anyone from voting for him, twice.
Did I forget anyone?
Those things aren't known by everyone. My conservative MIL didn't vote for Trump having known about those things, but my SIL did. She was shocked when I told her about it.
Americans generally aren't as well educated as many other countries of its caliber and a bit part of that manifests in media literacy and general interest in anything, really. My SIL claims she made her decision to vote for him because his campaign page was more convincing about lowering prices and Karris' I kid you not.
Yeah this is a single anecdote about a single person, but this largely has been my experience.
checking if your candidate isn't a pedophile should be the fucking bare minimum lmao
I agree, but we're talking about a white Christian in rural america. They don't put effort into it because they aren't meaningfully affected by outcomes either way. The SAVE act might be the first time they directly experience an erosion of rights but even then, theyre wealthy enough to travel regularly so their passport is likely recent.
Most of them voted for him thrice
Video of him raping a 13 year old girl is different.
