Why do so many people support a pedophile for president?

Did I fall asleep and wake up in 2016

[oops_ur_dead]

Hey man, don't you know that when you get as big and famous as Donald Trump it's a given that you'll accidentally take about 50 photos with multiple prolific pedophiles and child traffickers and make friends with them and make jokes about them fucking underage girls and also defend them when they get arrested. It's just a coincidence.

[Ganelon]

What about the pepey flag
Pretty sure a fascist like him would pose behind the pepey flag

I mean if Trump was posing next to an actual Nazi flag (not a pepe flag) then yeah that'd be pretty sus lmao.

[Ganelon]

But the pepey flag is for godamn alt right supporters and leaders

[oops_ur_dead]

I don't understand your point.

That's why

[Ganelon]

It’s interesting that people willcall donald trump anything just because they don’t like the guy. I mean, at least the (usual) criticism I hear about Bernie Sanders is on point - because his rhetoric really puts him in that camp (as well hi, you know, past. The dude literally vacationed in the Soviet Union. If Trump vacationed in Nazi Germany people would be screaming, and rightfully so).

[Ganelon]

I myself didnt like him that much until I started actively following his twitter account (as well as news on him). He actually seems like a remarkably normal person.

"I don't get why people criticize [person aligning with my ideology]. At least criticisms about [person not aligning with my ideology] make sense!"

[rumox]

What echo chambers do you subscribe to? Sanders was slammed for stuff as much as Trump is/was

[rumox]

Are you saying trumps criticism is unfounded whereas Sanders is?

[Ganelon]

Oh I don’t know if he gets criticized over unfounded claims. Seeing as he’s a politician he probably does. My point is, I don’t understand people calling Donald Trump a pedophile or whatever else he gets called, because attacking your political opponents for something they didn’t do is inherently counterproductive. I don’t do that, hence why I find threads like this one bizarre.

[Ganelon]

And yeh, I do think the current political climate favours namecalling Trump over other candidates (especially seeing as he’s the President and therefore in the spotlight). I don’t really follow Democratic news or whatever you want to call them, so I probably do miss some of the shit Democratic candidates get accused of. My impression however is that there’s more shit flinging towards Trump and republicans in general, though.

Classical. Hey don't just look at that giant heaping land fill worth of junk and trash that guy left.

That guy over their dropped his water bottle.on the floor.

[oops_ur_dead]

It's because he's a pedophile lmao.

[oops_ur_dead]

Wait are you saying that Trump seemed like a normal person after you started following his Twitter? If so, then fuck kinda normal people do you talk to.

[Ganelon]

Yeh he’s not bad, he’s just really verbally offensive and is a loudmouth.

Edit: Hes also impulsive (or at least presents himself as such. To some extent that may be a constructed persona, although I dont buy that he isn’t an impulsive person).

"No men are anywhere, and I’m allowed to go in, because I’m the owner of the pageant and therefore I’m inspecting it…. ‘Is everyone OK’? You know, they’re standing there with no clothes. ‘Is everybody OK?’ And you see these incredible looking women, and so I sort of get away with things like that.”


At best it's highly inappropriate, but there is fair a logical path where someone might think he is a pedophile just based off this comment alone tbh. Then there is the Epstein/Maxwell connection on top of that. I'm all for due process but it looks pretty questionable

[rumox]

I find it hilarious you are saying "he is just impulsive" as some sort of excuse when the topic is about him being a pedophile :D

[oops_ur_dead]

He also very much alluded to knowing Epstein rapes children by saying that he likes his women "on the young side".

There was also at least one victim that reported being recruited at Trump's Mar a Lago resort where Epstein visited many times.

So yeah Trump is definitely complicit in this pedo shit if not directly involved. How sad. When will Trump supporters account for backing a pedophile?

[Ganelon]

I don’t really think so. Women on beauty pageants tend to be extremely attractive, and in many cases look more mature than they really are. When he starts going after prepubescent children, let me know. We can argue whether that’s an appropriate thing to say (and it isn’t), but I don’t see it as pointing to pedophilia.

He has however said things that have made me wonder. Didn’t he say he would date his daughter or something? I’m sure he meant something completely different than what he actually said, but that comment looks really creepy lol lolololol

Tbh I’ve heard people also connecting British royalty to Epstein. I’m not sure how much I’m going to trust anything about that case lol.

[rumox]

Dude I know a kid is a kid regardless of what they look like...

[Ganelon]

Dude I know a kid is a kid regardless of what they look like...
Yeah well your penis probably doesn’t. If a 15 year old kid looks 25, they ARE going to attract men’s attention. People (who know they are 15) usually stay away from them, though.

[Ganelon]

In any event, I’d see this as far worse if he started oggling people who looked like children.

[rumox]

Uh please don't say I am attracted to kids thanks?

Yes.

Wait dude what.

He brags about being able to look at underage girls in a dressing room and you're saying that isn't pedo as fuck?

On top of the other evidence?

[oops_ur_dead]

It would be much less sad if Trump supporters just came clean and said that they support a pedophile because they actually don't give a shit. Everyone already knows it...

[SuperJack]

I mean. I don't get why people are attempting to use logic and rationality to get people who support trump to understand the truth.

Wait I do.
Both sides like the feeling that they are more intelligent than the other side and like to jerk off who is the more intelligent.

[Ganelon]

Dude, even from a technical standpoint attraction to people who are at least 15 isn’t pedophilia (for a good reason). And even more so if they look older than they are. You think pedophiles ask people for their ID to get their age before they start going after them? No, they look at their outward appearance.

yeah this is what I don’t like about politics. it allows you to feel superior just because you ‘support the right candidate’. It’s one of the reasons why I stay away from political BS as much as I can in real life. Hell, I don’t even vote; I would feel guilty for voting seeing as I’m only a resident, lol.

Wow. Wtf. Did you just defend pedophillia?

[Ganelon]

... no
i literally just said clarified what pedophilia is.
Example. My friend’s girlfriend (19) was approached by a photographer to become a model and erm... he was awfully creepy about it. Do I think he’s a pedophile? No, pedophilia is about looks. He’s just an old creep.

Ah yes, the second stage of Trump defence. I'm going to predicate your next two arguments for you:

"Maybe Trump is a pedophile, but it doesn't affect how he governs so it doesn't matter politically"

Then:

"Yes Trump may be a pedophile, but so was Bill Clinton, and Joe Biden has said some weird things as well."

[Ganelon]

If you want to look at the sexual things Donald Trump has done, there’s other things that are actually somewhat bad and also true. Example. He ONLY dates models. Now, what does that say about his opinion on women?

[Ganelon]

I knew you were going to go off on a literally irrelevant tangent lmao. I never said anything about Bill Clinton or Joe Biden.

[Ganelon]

And note that I seriously don’t think a pedophile should be president. If I can’t trust a man around children, I definitely can’t trust him to run a country, it’s just like how our idiotic prime minister lied about visiting his mother during COVID (on her deathbed). If he was actually as much of a cunt as to not visit his mum due to his ideology, I wouldn’t trust him to be PM. Luckily he just fucked up and lied. Which is something I can forgive him for.

[SuperJack]

To trump goes into a padgent. Full well knowing the age group. And it's ok to walk in and check out naked bodies.
Because. Aslong as they look mature enough it's ok?

No. That's wrong. And there is no way to defend that.

[rumox]

Trump knew he was in a room full of kids and still said what he said lol. Would it make you feel better if people called him a hebephile instead? Splitting hairs dude

[Ganelon]

I mean. I guess that’s a fair point hat he did know the age group.

[rumox]

Literally talking an age gap of 2-6 years (pedophile -> hebephile) from the POV of a... 50+(?) year old man?

[Ganelon]

In any event, Trump clearly has a thing for women who are physically attractive. They’re, you know, generally not physically attractive when they’re 13. I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t go after a 13 year old.
And uh, while I don’t think doing what he did is appropriate, I don’t think it makes him a pedophile. It could make him a sexual predator and all sorts of various things, but not a pedophile imo.

[Ganelon]

Literally talking an age gap of 2-6 years (pedophile -> hebephile) from the POV of a... 50+(?) year old man?
Yeah, except puberty tends to happen in that gap you just mentioned. So the difference between a 13 year old and a 16 year old is significantly larger than the difference between a 30 year old and a 50 year old, forminstance.

[Ganelon]

Note that I don’t think pedophilia is okay at all and I think that pedophilia is VERY wrong. I just think pedophilia, being about sexual attraction, is mostly about physical looks than age itself. For me, someone who dates 30 year old women that look like children is every bit as much of a pedophile as someone who goes after 12 year olds.

[rumox]

How old are you?

[oops_ur_dead]

I knew you were going to go off on a literally irrelevant tangent lmao. I never said anything about Bill Clinton or Joe Biden.

No, I was just stating that those would most likely be your next two arguments. That's pretty much what every Trump supporter does when pressed with the fact that Trump is a pedophile.

[Ganelon]

I’m twenty.

[Ganelon]

Actually twenty and a half.

[oops_ur_dead]

Also Trump was bragging about going into a locker room full of children in various stages of undress. It doesn't matter whether they look older or not (which isn't usually what matters to pedos anyway, it's more about the power structure) because Trump knew they were children. He's just a full-blown pedophile.

[rumox]

Okay well you being so young makes sense to me why you think such a way. When you get older look at these kids again and tell me you can see yourself being sexually attractive to them.

[Ganelon]

Well, I’ll let you know in 10 years or so.
I actually have no idea what the people in question look like, but seeing as they’re in beauty pageants I assume they’re very attractive.

[rumox]

Kids a kid yo, you may age but a 16 year old is always a 16 year old. Look at kids going off to their first day of high school and you will be like WTF they are so tiny, because in your head when you were at that age you did not see yourself like that at all but as you grow older you definitely see how young you really were. This experience expands as you get older.

[SuperJack]

Note that I don’t think pedophilia is okay at all and I think that pedophilia is VERY wrong. I just think pedophilia, being about sexual attraction, is mostly about physical looks than age itself.

[Ganelon]

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think Trump going into a locker room like that is okay at all. I think it’s wrong. I wouldn’t just barge into a room full of naked women either (at my age). I just don’t think it’s pedophilia. I will however accept that I may look at this with different eyes if I were older, however.

[rumox]

When you do remember Trump was 51 years old at the time.

[rumox]

https://media.tenor.com/images/97bc498db633bdbc6fe6e1b14df0fe44/tenor.gif

Lol anyone who dates Andy Milonakis is a pedo!

[oops_ur_dead]

We're ignoring that on top of the beauty pageant thing he was also known to be friends with two major traffickers of children and that at least one child was recruited from his own resort, and he also knew about them being pedos at the time...

[SuperJack]

from wiki:


the term pedophile is sometimes used informally to refer to any person who commits one or more sexually-based crimes that relate to legally underage victims. These crimes may include child sexual abuse, statutory rape, offenses involving child pornography, child grooming, stalking, and indecent exposure.

[SuperJack]

Also just gonna note that beauty pageant for non-adults is disgusting and so sick how the fuck are they acceptable in society. Urg.

[rumox]

Yup I went and looked at a miss teen video on youtube while posting here and the comment section is disgusting. You just know some of the comments are old dudes.

[Ganelon]

Did you know that child pageants are a thing?
i have no idea why they exist

[BananaCucho]

Wow. Wtf. Did you just defend pedophillia?

Yep

[Sylvanas]

Probably because you just called them women when they weren't? :thinking:

Where's a good :shrug: emote when you need one?

They don't, you call them "women" and they no longer exist and Donald is no longer a pedophile.

It's funny how claiming that guy is just a regular sex offender instead of a pedophile somehow makes him US president material. Talk about knowing where to draw the line.

What a shame that so many people support the party of pedophilia, headed by pedo Trump who was great personal friends with convicted child trafficker and child rapist Jeffrey Epstein and suspected child trafficker and child rapist Ghislaine Maxwell.

Why do people still support a party that supports pedophilia, and a president that has admitted to committing pedophilic acts and has very likely either committed or been complicit in child trafficking and rape? Could someone clarify for me?

Because people fanboy for their political party as if it was a religion.

It might be a pride thing. People that are die-hard fans for their political party, will not change their mindset regardless if you're right. Imagine giving hard evidence to a hardcore Christian that God or Jesus isn't real. They would probably commit suicide.

When presented with evidence that my religion was false, I became an atheist

The key is the willingness to accept new information that challenges what you hold to be dear. If they aren't willing, then yeah its pointless

[HentaiManOfPeace]

Most people didn't know about his connections with Epstein before becoming president.

There's always ~30% of his population who will always support him no matter what happens. He'd have to purposefully tank the economy AND commit war crimes or start a civil war on his own people to get worse ratings.
