    The fact that this administration is going to the ends of the earth to bury this coupled with them moving an actual pedophile, in actual prison, to a lower security prison and giving her a bunch of perks after she agreed to state she never saw Trump fuck a child is enough for me to believe that we currently have a sitting president who raped children.

    The President of The United States of America raped children.

      If you have a person living in your house who is obviously molesting children, and you choose to defend and support them, then you are a pedophile, too.

      Bottom line: Anyone who still defends and supports Trump is a pedophile.

      With all due respect to the spirit of your argument, I have to point out that pedophilia is actually about child rape, and that teenagers are not, strictly speaking, children. Pedophilia, as a psychiatric disorder, is about sexual attraction to prepubescent humans. What Trump and the others on the Epstein list are actually guilty of is human trafficking.

        All I’m saying is that the good guys don’t normally split hairs on “age brackets” for pedophiles.

          And my point is that they should. Pedophilia is a very serious condition, and it shouldn’t be lumped together with adults who have sex with adolescent non-adults. Both are bad things, but one is a very serious psychiatric abnormality, while the other is simply a social ill.
