I Think It's Time We Start Asking This Question.

Why does the GOP only care about the harm of children if they even think it's the other side doing it?

I mean look at Pizzagate - this story has been debunked as complete bullshit. They went and shot the god damn place up. They were caught filming children's birthday parties to try to convince the gullible Infowars followers as if it were proof of this happening. They're *STILL* harassing the employees of Comet Ping Pong and threatening them with murder. Alex Jones was sent into a fiery blaze over this story. Then even he admitted this story was complete bullshit. And the Pepe The Frog crowd still continues to go after it as if it's a thing.

Look at abortion. And how utterly crazy it makes the right wing nut jobs. They have gone so far out of their way to make every aspect of even the mere thought of abortion as a crime.

But one of their own - Roy Moore - a good ol' southern white boy, and member of the same southern Good Ol' Boys club that Jeff Sessions is a member of, is exposed as a child predator and a creepy pervert with a lust for underage girls. Not only do they not do anything about it, they are actively *CHEERING* this fucking monster.

And he's not the first one! Look at their own PRESIDENT! The president of the United States was caught on camera bragging about how he assaulted under age girls. He also bragged about how because he was a celebrity, he was able to walk in on young girls changing clothes in a locker room, and they couldn't do anything about it. And you know what? The MAGA crowd loves it!

There have been hundreds of GOP officials over the years who have been caught endangering children or performing sex acts on underage girls and even in some cases, males. Yet, the GOP, the Infowars crowd, and the Trump voters are either oddly silent, or loudly cheerleading. How about Penn State? The Penn State fans rioted because Jerry Sandusky was caught molesting young boys. Why did they not denounce it then? But no, they're instead throwing chairs over the idea of drag queens reading books to children.

But why does it make them so angry? Is it because in their minds they have committed similar acts? The people who are the accusers often do what they accuse others of. Look, GOP it's time to admit it - either you care about children of all ages, or you don't. If you did care, you'd denounce Roy Moore, but it appears you don't. So take your pick.

As I've noted previously, Trump could sodomize Christ on the Cross, and Republicans would find a way to be ok with it, if it meant holding onto power.

What do they care if Moore raped children or Trump raped women? We're talking about hundreds of billions of dollars, and fuck anyone who doesn't further the Republican platform.

And that's the key, really. Until a person threatens the Republican agenda, no sin is too abominable.
