The Rude Pundit: "Call me old-fashioned, but..."

[kpete]

Call me old-fashioned, but when a judge says a member of the president's cabinet covered up for a serial child rapist, I think that ought to be a huge scandal. But I guess that's not the world we live in now.

1. It's a good thing he didn't dress in black face or accuse someone wearing a MAGA hat...

The press would be all over that demanding his resignation!!!

[ProfessorGAC]

2. You Know Why!

With the Virginia thing, both sides of the aisle expressed outrage. Our side on general principle, if occasionally hyperventilating intensely.
The other side pursued it with opportunistic vengeance
In the white terrorist story, only one side expressed outrage, because the Rs don't want to rile the fake patriots in their base.
The noise was simply twice as loud because only one side follows any semblance of rules.

3. I can't understand why the press or anyone isn't asking if there is a "deep state" alt-right militia

being formed, with this guy being in the service so long and reaching such a rank. Surely he has some followers under him. This could be scary if they are recruiting a secret army within our armed forces for tRump.

6. Astoundingly, Ingraham and diGenova decried White Terrorist pushing Smollet off front page.

20. Ain't that the truth?

[Ponietz]

4. Acosta is an accomplice after-the-fact to serial child rape

A truly heinous betrayal of justice—unforgivable.

[volstork]

5. The "Family Values" party

loves child rape and pedophilia. As usual, those who are most vociferous about forcing their twisted "morality" on everyone else are the most morally bankrupt themselves.

7. the "family values" of the borgias and the medicis, perhaps?

[volstork]

10. Excellent point.

Maybe add in the Tudors, too...

[niyad]

12. you are, of course, correct. I knew I had forgotten someone.

[ck4829]

24. Indeed

[LakeArenal]

8. But but... the kneeling. That disrespectful kneeling...

Sarcasm thingie here!!!

[billpolonsky]

9. Ya but....

What about pizzagate? (or was it ufogate?)

[watoos]

13. Yeah, a sex ring in the basement

of a pizza shop that didn't have a basement. That's not the bad part, Trumpers still believe it.

[PeeJ52]

16. How could they have ever come up with such a crazy idea such as that any way?

Oh, because they actually did something like that with Epstein?

[ck4829]

25. Good question

[FailureToCommunicate]

11. Not the world we live in now

[marble falls]

14. Especially since there are indications Trump was one of the partiers at that sleezes's "parties".

[Eyeball_Kid]

26. And that's not all...

Trumpy ran a modeling agency at the time of Epstein's parties. He supplied the underage girls. He was a major party in the human trafficking, and he was/is accused of raping minor females.

[iscooterliberally]

17. This is a huge scandal.

Unfortunately it's in the middle of a giant forest of huge scandals.
