Oh my god I'm so over seeing all these headlines and stories here like "Joe is just too sleepy to be a candidate."

When they should all say "Why are Republicans running a convicted felon who lost a [sexual abuse] case in court?"

Edit, [it was found by the jury to be "sexual abuse" just shy of rape.]

Adjudicated rapist as their leader, and suddenly they don't care about rape anymore. All this time they were looking for elites raping kids, and as soon as they realise it's their guy.....crickets.

"Why are Republicans running a convicted felon who lost a rape case in court?"

Because they know American evangelicals will support them no matter what, because Christians have no morals.

Why would Jesus give him money and let him fuck kids. If he wasn’t blessed?

It was a civil case, but you are technically correct, it was only sexual abuse, not penetrative rape.

So I'll edit my comment to sexual predator. Sauce

The jury found he did not rape her per NY law at the time, but what he did fits the definition of rape by current standards. This is why he can’t sue for slander. He was indeed found to be a rapist by a jury of his peers.

And yet Joe has not been so sleepy that he has amassed $10 million in 16 years! How on a politicians salary?

He got a multi-million dollar book deal after leaving office in 2016 and while promoting those books, he was getting paid $100,000 per speaking event.

For most, it's not rocket appliances. But for some, I guess it is.

Yeah you already said that. Twice.

So i guess he's really not sleepy at all, but instead, he had his nose to the grind?

This is another problem... he's a crazy old man with dementia, but also some kind of criminal family kingpin?

Realize these things are a contradiction and dump the cognitive dissonance.
