The GOP is full of rapists, and it's nothing new.

And Congress knew and knows about others yet they think that they should still be the ones leading our representative government.

Why are these people living on the people ?

How could he possibly not? How could people look at him and think he wouldn't? The dude FUCKING looks like some sort of evil villain. That or a Dollar Tree Beavis.

I knew about this years ago. You knew about it. Our neighbors knew about. But still we gotta go through this wishy washy bullshit from those who are supposed to be leaders saying that this is all suddenly "coming to light". Fuck no it isn't.

So uh... why haven't "we" like... convicted and jailed him?

[-] MaxPow3r11@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

Trump...same. Elon...same.

Pretty much anyone at the very top of government now...same.

[-] Doomsider@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Hahaha you expect politicians to hold themselves accountable!? That would take things like integrity and honesty. You know honor, that thing the we just voted to kill forever.

[-] blarth@thelemmy.club 10 points 12 hours ago

Yeah, like, what the fuck? Don’t the rest of us go to jail if we do this?

[-] nomy@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 hours ago

Well yeah but we're not born rich to the ruling class. Our fathers and grandfathers weren't Senators like Mattys were.

Rules for thee, not for me.

So he is qualified. Only Rapists are allowed in.

Seriously, it wasn't even as lite as the titile makes it out to be.

"Gaetz did drugs while paying a child who hadnt even made it to her final year of high school while serving as a GOP representative and the GOP covered for him" would be more accurate

[-] nomy@lemmy.zip 6 points 3 hours ago

"Matt Gaetz does Republican shit." would've been accurate.

[-] Rakonat@lemmy.world 19 points 19 hours ago

Paragon of conservative virtues and former leading figure of elected government officials, everyone.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
