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.


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?


Probably very few. But what does that have to do with this thread?

If Gaetz used cocaine will being a gun owner in possession of a gun, then he should be charged with the same thing Hunter was charged with.

These girls were open about who they were. Gaetz’s friend had some fake id made for some. They had passports because they went to the Bahamas. They knew how old these girls were. Everything he’s accused of has been verified.

He would have been arrested and he wasn’t because it actually has not been verified.

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.


In Florida statutory rape is having sex with someone under the age of 18.

Troll on Fox News?

News Flash: Fox hates conservatives.
The Murdoch sons are now in charge.

He wasn’t arrested because statutory rape is a state crime and FL is corrupt AF—. and he and his dad are powerfully people.

I wonder what the statute of limitations is in Florida. Now that this report has been published.

I wonder if DeSantis would pardon him. It would be a bad move for him personally, but would help the GOP to keep a Gaetz trial from happening.
