    Yup. The report specifically found he violated FL statutory rape law, among other laws, but headlines continue to not call it what it is.

      America’s willingness to elect pedophiles/rapists to the highest positions in their country is… baffling. To then have their news not even use those words just makes me worry so much for women in the US. Like seriously, ‘sex with underage girl,’ we have specific words for that. Embarrassing.

        It’s the double standards in these laws that get me.
