I am old and know many guys who were horrible in the 20s/30s who have grown up in their 40s. Women too. I also do not believe he knowingly slept with someone under 18. There is a greater chance someone said they were over 18 and looked over 18. He is clearly being attacked for his politics and that also bothers me. Troubling that a report is leaked and so much leaking in so many things the past four years. Now when something is leaked I ignore.

He paid for sex and had sex with a minor. In the America I used to live in, no one like this could have gotten near political office anywhere. He broke laws, exploited young women, and bragged about it. When is he doing the hundreds of pages of reading per week required to be an informed legislator? He is unfit for office.

Please. He paid for sex -whatever. If there was an under 18 girl again guessing she presented as looking like 30. I am sorry so many bad things in the country this is not something most people are focused on. You do realize how many men and I am sure woman pay for sex and they are all parties and of course some politicians. This is just a smear. People are exhausted by all the smears.

This isn't a smear, and normal people do not hire underage prostitutes. Doing drugs is illegal and a firing offense in most jobs. Seriously, can Florida not find a hard-working, non-felon to represent them? Are those Soring Break movies documentaries?

Let alone being nominated for Attorney General. The defenses of him and his nomination are beyond absurd.

And those of you who think this okay behavior and everyone is doing it, really need to check your ethics and morals

I’m going to bet you are the same people going to church every Sunday and telling everyone what upstanding Christians you are

You are the people who turn a blind eye to Trumps questionable and despicable behavior

But yeah, you probably laugh when he makes fun of handicapped people or wants to grab a woman by the pussy. Because he’s just being a boy, right?

It is a sad day where behavior that would get any president or CEO of a company fired is deemed acceptable for a member of congress. And no, I don't excuse Bill Clinton either, always thought he was a sleazebag too.

This has nothing to do with party politics. Or it shouldn't. This behavior isn't defensible in a civilized society, so if you're defending it, you're announcing you aren't fit to live amongst people with actual morals, not just once you can weaponize through your so-called Christianity.

Trump has blunted many people’s sense of proper behavior and has coarsened our culture and politics.

Good question for Dem senators to ask at her confirmation hearing.

No. It’s not. I’m appalled by this report. I hope he’s charged with crimes. And things like bringing drugs and prostitutes onto federal property might be chargeable. But statutory rape is a state crime. And what constitutes statutory rape varies by state. The federal government doesn’t have a statutory rape law, as far as I know. So it’s a state crime and FL would have to prosecute(spoiler alert they won’t). And Trump won’t let the DOJ charge him with a federal crime. And the statute of limitations will have run before Trump is out of office.

He won’t dace any criminal consequences. One would hope his political career is over. But this is FL, so he’ll probably run for Rick Scott’s Senate seat and win.

That doesn't answer the question of why it's not a good idea to ask a state AG why she didn't pursue state charges against a Florida state resident for state crimes he committed while in her state while she was AG, seeking to become AG of the United States. Why is that not a good idea to ask her at her confirmation hearing?

Oh Please. Any old excuse you can find. The man was paying for hookers and drugs and doing both in his congressional office, but your boys will be boys bullcrap is nauseating. Barf.

Do you have an issue with sex work? AOC doesn’t. I feel bad for the guy that he had to go this route to get dates. He is now married and happy so this is a big snooze.

Does AOC advocate for minors being involved in legal sex work? For hard drugs being legal— and used by Congressmen on federal property? I’m a Fed, and I could lose my not that high security my not that high security clearance for using medical marijuana while not on duty in a state where it’s legal. That’s the standard most federal are held to.

Using pot in a state where it’s legal is a fireable offense for federal employees.

Sorry. Misread. I thought the question was asking her if she would charge him with statutory rape if she became the US AG. I’d imagine she didn’t charge him as FL aG because nobody officially knew (because no one wanted to know…).

You’re trying to make paying for sex sound mundane and maybe even cool.

It’s neither. It’s a crime.

How many women pay for sex?
