A 17 year old has been fair game in Texas for as long as I can remember.
But paying her and taking her across state/international lines is not fair game
And do we have proof that this indeed happened? DOJ hasn't been able to conclude that, unless I've missed something…

I don't know if he is guilty or not. That is what he was accused of.

Lol, he was investigated and cleared by Merrick Garland. But sure, the House is covering up a crime.

I don't care if it's a crime. I just wish he weren't a sorry-ass human being.

Whelan isn't a leftist. He was a law clerk for Scalia and is friends with Kavanaugh.
It's the seriousness of the charge…when it's a Republican. Can't even get the charges discussed when it's a democrat.FireAg said:Aggie97 said:

Yeah and many of the same actors said Trump was guilty of Russian "collusion" and "quid pro quo"…
Yet everything was made up…

If paying and then vacationing with a prostitute is the best they have, I am unmoved.Aggie97 said:Tom Fox said:

Whatever. I was pointing out the ******ed logic.
He'll be a fine AG.

Seeing where multiple Republican Senators speaking on condition of anonymity are saying he will never be approved, full stop.
I wonder if Trump knows this and will come in behind him with someone like Paxton who will then look like a solid compromise after the fact, though may have received a little resistance had he been the first nominee?
Trump is surely floating Gaetz, so that when he names his real AG, Dems (and Rs) will be so relieved, they'll support a ferocious right-winger they otherwise would have opposed merely for being qualified.

There's a difference between a 21 year old interacting with a 17 year old, and a 30+ year old doing it.Tom Fox said:

Prostitution has always been around and should be legal. And we are stupid for infantilizing 17, 18, and 19 year olds. They are the backbone of our fighting forces and all throughout history have been married and bearing children.

Gaetz is an ass-clown. No way he gets 50 R Senate votes. No way.
That is your opinion. I was a LEO for over a decade including a fed that worked international alien smuggling for prostitution and then after attending law school, a felony prosecutor. We have bigger fish to fry than two consenting adults engaged in a voluntary transaction.The Banned said:
Studies in Europe have compare legal zones to illegal zones and have shown legal prostitution actually increases sex trafficking. Cheap labor in a place where you can get away with it. Prostitution should not be legal.
Maybe but there has to a line drawn in the sand legally. I am perfectly fine with that being 17.MemphisAg1 said:There's a difference between a 21 year old interacting with a 17 year old, and a 30+ year old doing it.Tom Fox said:

Something about young love hooking up is understandable, whereas an older guy preying on an underage female is creepy and downright wrong.
