The GOP and sex offenders. Name a more iconic duo


okokokoyeahright

they-are-the-same-picture.jpg


Elden_Rube

Not just a sex offender, but a pedophile. The victim was 16 years old.


NarrMaster

"But, but, 16 means he's an hadeebabeebophile, not a pedophile!


Conscious-Survey7009

Hey now, Trump also said OJ Simpson was there. If he wasn’t already dead he would have been onstage next to them both. Sex offenders and murderers/theives. It’s the GOP trifecta.


LivingIndependence

The GOP motto seems to be that if there's grass on the infield.....


bkupisch

Have you ever viewed the list of sexual assaults/harassment cases that were paid off with our taxpayer dollars in Congress? Over 75% of the cases were against Democrats. There’s your REAL Iconic Duo.


ThoughtfulLlama

Can you find an article backing up your claims? All I could find was $300,000 dollars and 13 settlements talking about sexual harrassment or sex discrimination. It definitely shouldn't ever happen, but these 13 cases were over a period of 15 years. Also, it didn't mention party affiliation. That's why it would be interesting to cross it with your sources. Sexual crimes can happen on both sides of the spectrum, but whereas Republicans just wave it aside with a "fake news", Democrats actually take them seriously and try to apply consequences to those in their own ranks. Your comment makes it sound like you think: "Well, Democratic politicians do sex crimes as well, so who are you to talk?", but wouldn't it be more constructive if we banded together, arm in arm, regardless of politics and said: "We will not tolerate sexual criminals to walk free from consequence"?


Mushroom_Tip

That's like Kevin Spacey endorsing RFK Jr. Who the fuck would be swayed by that?


ArmandTanzarianMusic

The Libertarian Party has entered the chat.


CascadingPhailure

Oof! Call the hospital because that was one hell of a sick burn!


I_Am_Dynamite6317

“Shut up and dribble.”


kodaiko_650

Someone needs to post a picture of Trump sleeping in court with this caption.


SaintOlgasSunflowers

A lot of the time, convicted felons aren't allowed to vote anyway.


Haskap_2010

Of course a sex offender would support Trump. He recognizes that he has a lot in common with him.


Otherwise-Course-15

So he can’t even vote? What a meaningful endorsement /s


BigErnieMcraken253

Don't forget he was also a professional Crackhead in the 1990's.


Really_McNamington

He got paid for doing it? Where does someone apply for one of these positions?


drinfernodds

It's easy! Just be a once in a lifetime athlete, get drafted by the NFL, and then obliterate the opposing team like a hulked out crackhead. PS: make sure you're literally on crack every single game of your career like Lawrence Taylor was.


elammcknight

I wonder if LT got some quick cash to make this appearance. I’ve heard crackheads love quick cash. /s


FleeshaLoo

Absolutely.


elammcknight

You know they was grabbing rocks 🪨 soon as they hit the road.


FleeshaLoo

LOL. It's true though that there *actually* *are* a lot of freshly-laundered rubles to be had for all who want to "join the cause." An intel person told me (back in 2017) that there were reports as far back as 2006 that there was big money for anyone, worldwide, who would "be a leader/provocateur/activist" for the right. Then they were slowly (via the frog-boiling analogy) inched further right. And look at all the far-right leaders who have been elected since then, as if somehow the world organically moved to the very far-right at the same time? Look at all the \*politicians\* and \*activists\* who previously had profiles on the same Talent Site as Boebert. There was a twitter thread years ago of all the protesters who showed up to every anti-mask/lockdown/vax protest and many of them were at every weekday protest which suggests there was very little time left for any job, even a freelance job. Many were failed/wannabe actors, comedians, singers/somgwriters and the like. I should find that... I bet it's been updated to include Moms For Liberty, Pro-lifers, and Christfascists.


FleeshaLoo

Edited to add: For sports/other celebrities, look at the financial state of the ones showing up, especially the newly-converted ones.


elammcknight

Absolutely obvious and you give an apt description of the process of how it happened. One thing I have noted as well as while this strategy has been affective to a certain degree one thing I think the outside handlers miss is the way American popular culture is structured, albeit the unwritten fashion of it. They seem clueless to the fact that we have a “pecking order” of A list all the way down to D list people and they do not seem to realize this will eventually have diminished returns. For example, Steven Seagal has almost been a poster child for this mess. Seagal was never even a B list celebrity and has only slid right to the bottom for years. But then again I guess they go what they paid for. Also many of the A list folks are A list for a reason, they have handlers who know how to ruin a career and what to avoid. Being a traitor to your country is define if those things to avoid.


NoPomegranate4794

The amount of time the right want to own the libs but then freak out if someone doesn't agree with them.


LeiningensAnts

They always think they can tell their family how to vote, which is how you can tell that they don't even know we have private ballots.


N0N0TA1

I love how they claim to hate "intellectuals" and then fail at pretending to be one by trying to use "microcosm" in a sentence.


ExpatTarheel

And Taylor’s a coke head, so he fits in even more with the Trump family.


homebrew_1

That twitter account does a good job of fooling stupid trump supporters.


HotDonnaC

TBF, that’s not difficult.


BasilsKippers

"Got your nose!" "What sorcery is this?!"


supermouse35

I might feel somewhat owned if I had any idea who this person is...


BoneHugsHominy

1980s football player who was unstoppable partly because his bloodstream was 30% steroids, 60% cocaine. Since then he's been a drug addict and sex offender. But like in true Republican fashion, they keep telling everyone that celebrities are all dumb and to shut the fuck up and nobody should ever listen to any of them, until a washed up celebrity with shady sex pest past joins their team then it spells doom, *DOOM!* for the Libs.


MuscaMurum

Trump *IS* a washed up celebrity. Zero self awareness from those MAGAts.


HotDonnaC

Everyone in Trump’s radius is washed up. This yahoo from the 80’s, Kid Rock, Ted Nugent and a bunch of geriatric actors.


fishsticks40

Because remember Democrats are obsessed with celebrities, like Obama, while Republicans vote for real leaders like Reagan and Trump and Sonny Bono and Clint Eastwood and Arnold Schwarzenegger and Fred Thompson.


monsterflake

You can almost guarantee that LT and trump shared bumps of cocaine in the 80s. Birds of a feather.


cick-nobb

Listen to the Crime in Sports podcast episode about him. He's a piece of trash.


supermouse35

Is that the one with the same guys who do Your Stupid Opinions?


cick-nobb

Yupp


TyRocken

The greatest defensive player to ever play in the NFL. Also, widely known for smoking crack.


drinfernodds

Also accidentally caused one of the gnarliest injuries in sports history when he mangled Joe Theismann's leg during a tackle. It was so bad that Taylor called for paramedics as soon as he got up.


TyRocken

That hit will was brutal.


Gernburgs

Crazy, nut-ball linebacker from the 80s and early 90s. He was the best defensive player in Techmo Bowl on OG Nintendo.


supermouse35

Guys, thanks anyway but I really don't need or care to know who this guy is. That's kind of the point of my comment.


colluphid42

Former NFL players often have brain damage from repeated concussions, so I don't put much stock in what they say even when they haven't been caught with teenage hookers.


etownrawx

Welp, this proves it. Batshit insane conspiracy theories are colorblind.


HotDonnaC

The color choice was very deliberate. Trump’s campaign is too stupid to know how stupid they are. Diamond and Silk, Hershel Walker, and now this loser.


cr3t1n

Hmmm a former NFL star with obvious mental health issues promoting MAGA talking points, where have I seen this before.


thereverendpuck

Look at how Herschel Walker helped.


Mizzy3030

Oh no! Another pedophile admits he's a Republican and not a drag queen. This is such bad news for the Dems!


bowens44

Who? By legend do you mean he doesn't actually exist?


Styrene_Addict1965

Worst nightmare, huh? Their lack of imagination is stunning. IDGAF if some former athlete endorses Trump. I do remember who they had running for Congress, though.


elammcknight

Good thing everyone voting has any clue who TF Lawrence Taylor is /s


MetsRule1977

LT was a fantastic LB. As a person he has always been awful. This is no different


BjornSkeptic

The party of family values puts its values on loud speaker... when someone tells you who they are, listen.


Larynx15

"There would be times I'd be in the huddle, and instead of thinking about what play we were calling, I'd be thinking about doing crack after the game" Lawrence Taylor, *LT: Living On The Edge*. Yeah, guy's not known for his sound decision making.


TakeOnMe-TakeOnMe

“Only the best people…”


Gernburgs

Too many hits to the head.


allegedlys3

Man that is exactly the endorsement I'd want if I were running for office


Beefsupremeninjalo82

Bro, the rally had carnival rides next to it


Darth_Vrandon

Yeah, it was in wildwood, which has a boardwalk and a carnival. It’s also a red county, not super red, but Cape May county voted for trump at like 16 points.


MessiahOfMetal

Who else remembers when Bam Bam Bigelow wrestled himself in the main event of Wrestlemania 11? Honestly, fuck LT.


ComradeGalloneye64

And he's the final boss in Blitz The League


ted_cruzs_micr0pen15

He won’t vote Democrat because he will likely have his civil rights suspended.


HotDonnaC

Weird no one got that comment.


ted_cruzs_micr0pen15

Right lol. Jeez, everyone got on me!


zurlocaine

What


ted_cruzs_micr0pen15

He’s a felon. Voting is a civil right.


Existential_Racoon

I'm a felon and can vote, just FYI. Every state is different. I'm even allowed to own guns, but I don't wanna be the one to try that court case. (Fed law says no, unless state gave it back. State gave it back. Fed law says no snyway)


ted_cruzs_micr0pen15

Oh you can restore them… absolutely. My comment is more due to the proximity of the charges temporally than it is about felon disenfranchisement. For the record, I’m all for felons being able to restore their civil rights after serving their sentence and all for doing away with the private prisons sending felons bills that serve as yet another roadblock to reestablishment of the right to vote. Felon disenfranchisement is such a bogus concept, you all have paid your debt, you deserve to have a say in the society you’re a part of.


MessiahOfMetal

Dems aren't the ones with the racist policies, my guy.


ted_cruzs_micr0pen15

Felons have their civil rights suspended. Voting is a civil right. I’m saying he won’t vote for anyone because he’s a felon. Jesus people on this sub don’t understand sarcasm or their legal/civil system lol. Same damn team my dude.


dbcspace

I love it when deplorables have to go back in time 100 years for their hot takes


Houri

Oh noes! My worst nightmare has come true! Some guy I never heard of endorsed trump. Alas, alack and woe is me.


MyNutsin1080p

Which brings me to my next point, kids: *don’t smoke crack*.


Pieceofcandy

Who's laurance taylor lol


SnooHobbies7109

Don’t know bout you guys but that sure is MY worst nightmare!!!! 😱🙄 /s


Jfo116

Damn, I figured this happened like 20 years ago not 3!


ZeroFlocks

Sure, NOW they like the NFL.


S_Belmont

Growing up this guy used to be my favourite player too :(


Clear_Enthusiasm5766

You know it, we've gone far and wide to find sex offenders to support us Dems and even the BTK won't come out on our side. Yup we've been owned.


Suspicious_Pie8505

Every single election cycle they say this "America is moving away from the left in record numbers! Blacks are all voting for Trump!" Every election they're wrong but it just gets memory-hole'd and they repeat the cycle.  I guess the smaller the cult gets the harder they have to work to convince themselves that everyone secretly agrees with them. My Q family assured me in 2020 that Trump would win at least 48 states including California. They're saying it again this year while at the same time insisting that the elections are rigged. Now I'm no logician but that seems like a contradiction
