Why Republicans need to be checked and stopped from launching false attacks against

Democrats when it comes to pedophilia: The big concern is that people will stop listening because they know the attack has no merit. And this will make it that much harder to get the proper attention when we actually have a person who is guilty of the crime.

And this, I suspect, is why people like Josh Hawley and other MAGAs use it so liberally. They're hoping to desensitize people into taking a bothsiderism position. Thank the media for making it easy for them.

They can think of. It’s not like people become pedophiles because they think they’re gonna get away with it or the judge is going to be soft on crime. Pedophilia is a specific type of disorder. To hear the Republicans tell it, you think every other Democrat would like to be one if they could. Crazy bullshit
