I bet you this guy, without a shred of irony, screams "groomer" every time it's brought to his attention that drag queens exist. Screams until he's hyperventilating and blue in the face. And 100% believes he's the good guy fighting the good fight.

She looks 14 tops and he looks like her dad.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 2 days ago

That pic really puts the age difference in perspective

[-] [email protected] 10 points 2 days ago

What the fuck....

Also, where were the parents of that girl to stop this shit? Also, where were the friends of that girl to stop thta shit?

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

This child has no friends, her parents married her off to him. He probably gave them money.

That looks like a picture of a dad, his daughter, and his grandson.

Y'all Qaeda

And the GOP wants her not to be able to divorce him unlike the Democrats.

[-] [email protected] 85 points 3 days ago

That's really unfair to paint all Republicans with that brush. Some of them are married to groomers.

Okay let's not have fun on this innocent kid whose dad is an idiot

[-] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

Simply pointing out that this guy and his kid have been in the news lately. You may infer that this kid has a bright future ahead of him despite his idiot dad, but can we agree that you came to this conclusion on your own?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

Okay I might have misunderstood your intentions, but you posting a picture of his son making faces while he's giving some speech or whatever kinda felt like you're on "haha look at this stupid kid"

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Not at all, i felt solidarity with this kid. It was almost like he was performing an interpretive dance of whatever the old man was talking about. Or that this 6 year old grasped the absurdity of the old man’s political theater and seized his moment. The kid is a comrade.

[-] [email protected] 104 points 3 days ago

"Nu-uh! It's only grooming when my kid realizes they're gay, not when I trade her like a brood mare to an influential political old fart in exchange for financial favors and political sponsorship of my relatives!"

The body language in the photo makes me want to vomit. GIRL, GET OUT OF THERE.

[-] [email protected] 44 points 3 days ago

Not to mention her 'hide the pain Harold' eyes.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

0% chance you would have any problem with the "body language" if you had seen this image with no context, lol. There is literally nothing odd about the body language, at all.

People don't even realize how deeply bias affects their interpretation.

there is no age limit. there is an age minimum

Don't do Gothmog dirty like this. A disfigured and crippled orc being able to command a marching army and dodge half a house thrown at him is definitely in better shape than these pedophiles that can't even sit on a chair straight.

[-] [email protected] 17 points 3 days ago

Gothmog was based on Harvey Weinstein, so the comparison is perfectly apt.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

the resemblance is uncanny

Her: if I marry this old fucker I'll collect so much life insurance some day.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 3 days ago

yeah because children are so calculating...

[-] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Someone else in the thread has posted an article. They married in 2011, she completed highschool in 2007. She must have been 21-22 when she married. Not really a child (but also nothing tells us she is in for the money, obviously!).

Edit:

https://prospect.org/politics/how-republican-rep-john-rose-found-his-wife/ The article above reports she is from 1989, apparently.

[-] [email protected] 20 points 3 days ago

if you've been groomed from childhood it doesn't really matter at what age you get married. you've still been manipulated and one can hardly assume real agency is involved. mind that people usually don't say "let's get married" and do it that year. the idea of marriage was likely discussed and decided on way earlier.

He was in his 40s, not 70s, lmao, wtf are you talking about? Zero chance that was the reason she married him.

Why their heads all different sizes

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I think it's because the man has a fat neck and probably had to go up a size or two in shirt size to be able to close that top bottom. The giant collar then makes his head look small.

I do see that the top bottom is open now but he isn't wearing a tie in the picture.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

And the kid's is somehow the biggest

[-] [email protected] 21 points 3 days ago

That picture looks off. Like the heads don't match the bodies or something.

[-] [email protected] 27 points 3 days ago

I thought so too, but the story checks out. Their engagement announcement was on page 7 of this local newspaper:

http://eaglevilletnhistory.com/print/Jan_2011.pdf

You have to read between the lines a bit: she was involved in FFA as a high schooler and graduated in 2007. He appears to have been involved in FFA extensively. It doesn't mean for sure that they first met at an event where she was a student participant, but it seems likely. And of course, the age gap is the same either way.

Looks like a nice father-daughter pic without any context.
