This just in, single 22 year olds takes a photo with 18 year olds at a party where literally NO ONE has even accused him of anything beyond being at the party.

Wow - they are scared ****less of him

Why is the post with the most blue stars on this thread "Makes me like him more, he's a normal f-king guy" and not something along the lines of "This is fake and there's no proof that's him or those girls are high school students"?

That's pretty weird in and of itself.
You seem extremely concerned.

As an expert in internet browsing and based on my browsing history . I don't think this will amount to anything. Cultural exchanges are pretty common and encouraged actually by society . It is not a crime to take a picture with Japanese exchange students.

What about 20 something Biden being with 16 year old Jill? Oh yeah he is a dem


The outrage over this photo is stupid, because of all the assumptions one must make in order to make it even remotely scandalous….

But Joe Biden was never with Jill when was 16. They didn't even meet until she was in her twenties.
The picture caption on the internet says you're wrong, and we all know what Abraham Lincoln said about the internet...

Well those politicians won't address those scandals, and you are a Joe fart sniffer, aren't you?

Once again, definitely not a Joe supporter. Call me crazy, but I'd like all politicians to address scandals that involve them, and I don't worship or blindly defend any of them.


This isn't a scandal no matter how much you'd like it to be

Kind of puts those posters as pervs.

This is probably a big nothing. But some of these posts are weird.
Sorry but being 22 and at a party with 18 year olds is not that uncommon. Shouldn't be there is they are your students but past that, its not a big deal.

Yes, fondling kids is worse and creepier than a high school teacher partying with his students. Both are bad and creepy. And one doesn't excuse the other.

Why is this a story?


Adults drinking with underage children will always solicit a response. Now throw in a politician and you have a story.
Joe is 'proud of his son.' I can't post photos of said son with prostitutes/crack pipes etc. but he has never addressed those. Just fyi.

The 'big guy' has been on the take for decades. It's a lot bigger deal than DeSantis teaching a HS class in his early 20's.

Kennedy got drunk, wrecked his car and killed a woman, which is much worse than getting blowjobs in the Oval Office from an intern. That doesn't mean that both incidents shouldn't be addressed just because one is worse than the other.
Ted, the 'lion of the senate' addressed that incident and vehemently tried to run against Reagan in '84 (with the help of the Russians, of course, largely while drunk/carousing with women with slime like Chris Dodd), though his family killed that dream of his.

"Let's go Brandon" has never addressed the pictures/emails on his son's abandoned laptop. Nor have our 'liberal' (aka leftist) posters demanded that he should.

Do you blindly believe everything about this "story"? After all of the Trump and Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas and other BS over the years, how could you?

Even if those were his HS students and they got cozy with the "cute young teacher" for a picture over 20 years ago...WGAF?

Should this derail his presidential chances? Is that the bar you want to go by? If so, I guess everyone should be fired and certainly every politician given the boot.

1. No confirmation that it is actually DeSantis
2. No confirmation that the females shown are underage.

an non-story that only Dems and CMs will rub one out on.

I rule it:

#FakeNews until any confirmable proof is provided.

There's a lot more unknowns.

-- No evidence it is taken when it says it was or is of what it is alleged to show
-- No evidence other adults (i.e. parents) weren't there
-- No evidence it was a party or that he was attending said party other than in passing (e.g. dropping something/someone off; living nearby; etc.)
-- No evidence those pictured were students -- their faces are blurred so how would anyone know?

Other questions:

1. Who took the picture?
2. How did it get out now? What was the motive?
3. Seems to be cropped/shopped. What is it hiding?

This is where I've landed on this. Absolutely worst case scenario this picture proves that DeSantis exercised poor judgment as a 22 year old. If that's the standard for which we measure politicians I think we're in deep trouble.

Quote:

After college and before law school, Ron DeSantis spent a year teaching history at a high school in Georgia. According to a source with close knowledge of the matter, during that time he was photographed partying with underaged students....

In 2001, when DeSantis joined the staff of the high school, he'd have been in his twenties, with college and work in politics already under his proverbial belt. His students would have been high school co-eds, teenagers, some of whom would have been living on-campus. According to our whistleblower, he had a reputation among students for being a young "hot teacher" who girls loved, and the girls in the photo are believed to have graduated in 2002, making them seniors at the time.

The photo shows a person purported to be DeSantis, in a group embrace with several young girls, one of whom is holding what appears to be a glass beer bottle. The source who provided the photo says that it was taken prior to graduation meaning the young girls would still have been DeSantis' responsibility at the time. It is not clear whether any of them were legal adults, though they would have been too young to purchase alcohol.

A yearbook image shows DeSantis in the year that he worked for Darlington School, with the same bowl cut and wide grin featured in the photo.

Though DeSantis would have been only about five years older than some high school seniors, the five years between a high schooler and a college graduate denote a significant experience gap, especially alongside the fact that DeSantis would have been in a position of authority over the students. He had also already, by the school's own description, worked in a political office, giving him ample opportunity to be fully aware of the optics and risks of being associated with controversial behavior, such as proximity to underage drinking.

After only a year teaching at the school, DeSantis left and went on to Harvard Law School, military service, and a political career. Though he says he's not planning to run, a potential presidential campaign has been a subject of much speculation.

The allegation surfaces at a time when Florida politicians and their links to underage girls are already a subject of scrutiny. The Orlando Sentinel earlier this year contemplated the possibility that DeSantis' close ties to Representative Matt Gaetz, which is described as having previously been advantageous, could become a liability now that Gaetz has been associated with a child sex trafficking case.

Who cares? The Democrats ignored Bill Clinton's zipper issues, Biden's incestuous China connections, and Obama's shameless cronyism. A couple of beverages with underage kids ain't that important.

My point is that is you cancelled every person who did something possibly foolish or stupid, but relatively harmless, as a f-ing 20-something year old, literally zero people would be hirable or electable.

It's SILLY. I once grabbed a boob at Mardi Gras when I was like 19. They lady didn't invite me to do so, although she didn't seem to mind. I am guessing I should forever be punished for that act...which is way worse than what Desantis is being accused of.

Exactly. We bought one of our HS teachers a bottle of Crown Royal for her birthday. I guess she should have been fired and never allowed to teach again since she was in possession of alcohol around us. She was an awesome teacher and she connected well with her students, but if somebody posted a picture of her sitting at a table in a Bennigans surrounded by her students and holding up that bottle, her career would be over now I guess. This whole cancel culture of dredging up what people did decades ago is F-ing stupid and we should stop allowing ourselves to be manipulated by it.

The bowl cut comment says that this guy is anti-de Santis no matter what. Just another concerned moderate.

We had a high school teacher that bought us beer from time to time, he was also banging a student but being 18 it was legal. School never found out.

Reminds me that we drank with our professors and TAs at A&M a lot. My major was a tough one I tell you

I had an inappropriate relationship with a teacher once. We never crossed THE line but we did a lot of things that would have got her fired. I was 17 and she was 22 and in her first year out of A&M, and we were both single.

She was f'ing awesome and when I remember her I appreciate her still today.

Yeah, that guy's definitely not a Biden honk or lib shill.
Don't know the poster, but I was just using the 'bowl cut' comment to joke about others on this board. There are a few who didn't vote for Trump that claim when the time comes, they will vote for DeSantis. I'm thinking they will look for every excuse to not support DeSantis when the chips are down (if he's the guy in 2024).

My bowl cut comment was just a joke about acting like that was the most serious offense committed in the old photographs.
I figured. It's definitely an awful haircut.
