    Sure, criticize the woman for charging people for sex rather than the absolute chump who paid a quarter of a million dollars to hide the fact that he got his pee-pee sucked. That sure sounds like the type of smooth brain deflection a trump supporter would try, but the rest of us ain’t stupid or bigoted enough to fall for it.

      Ohhhh, I thought for a moment he literally paid $230k for a hooker. Like, that’s what it would take to get someone to suck him off. You’re talking about the bribe after.

      It says a lot that the first thing is still kinda believable, though.

      My point is that neither should be punished. But if one is, then why isn’t the other? As far as I know prostitution is illegal in this country, both for the Johns and those providing services.

        The issue has nothing to do with sex work. Trump wasn’t being prosecuted for buying sex. He was indicted for using political donations to bribe someone, and you think that should somehow be legal? Just stop with this ridiculous exercise in whataboutism. Your head is way too far up your ass to make any sense.
