Republicans Support Raping Children [View all]

I cannot believe we are having a conversation about a political party, that calls itself "Christian", that is actively trying to reshape the narrative to protect their Party leader from accusations of raping children.
Let's be unequivocally clear and use unambiguous language. Trump has been actively accused of raping children.
We cannot allow the Megan Kelly's of the Republican Party get away with hair splitting terminology.

Pedophiles rape children.

As a survivor, I was raped multiple times as a child by two completely different people, and I will NOT allow these monsters to rationalize away the rape of children.

We must publicly shame any attempt to justify these actions.
These brave souls that have come forward are just the tip of the iceberg.
I watched a video yesterday of a gentleman that was a survivor of sex traffickers and rape by associates/friends of Mango Mussolini and he named names and places and events. He talked about the abuse of both men and young boys.
I'm sure that part of the story is just unfolding and will become a much bigger deal soon.

As a survivor I say "NO" . No more. These assholes cannot be allowed to belittle these poor people and how they were treated.
Poor Virginia is no longer with us because of these people. Please do not let anyone in your life or your politicians get away with trying to pretend this was anything other than what it was: raping and abusing children.
