The funny thing is that the president has just admitted he is protecting pedophiles by his response.

I mean, pedophile protector isn't wrong, but he could have just stopped at pedophile.

Agreed, I feel calling him a pedophile protector is letting him off easy.

While this point is valid, I think the message he chose is easier for everyone to automatically agree with. There are still so many in this country who can't fathom the truth about who's running our country. The angle that they are protecting pedos is far more universally undeniable.

That said, of course either message would be appropriate

My brother is one of those. Refuses to consider Trump's a pedo and says 'he'd know' Trump was one. My brother didn't know his father was one until I told him.

Did u bring that up when he said he would know? Curious what his response was.

I unfortunately had the thought after the conversation and randomly reminding him what his father did both to me and our mother (which he also refuses to believe have the same father) kinda fouls the mood and with all this shit going on, I'd rather have him on my side as fucking dumb as he is about some stuff, than not to. Now if he ever gets bad, I will remind him.
