Trump supporters gather outside courthouse and ask: Who among us hasn’t paid for sex?
independent.co.uk

Donald Trump has not been accused of paying for sex, but several supporters protesting outside of his trial on Monday wanted to make it clear that they have. It seems the crowds that come out to protest the persecution of the former president are getting smaller, and weirder

Today, however, the crowd had thinned to a handful of true believers and true characters – those who don’t leave their house without a giant flag, a bullhorn, and an offensive T-shirt they made themselves.

It’s not only that the crowds are getting smaller, it’s that they are getting significantly weirder.

Of the people willing to step up to a microphone outside the courthouse and defend Mr Trump for allegedly paying off a porn star to hide his alleged affair from prospective voters, two offered something of a wild defence: that they opposed the charges because they too had paid for sex on more than one occasion, and assumed most men had done the same

It didn’t matter to them that Mr Trump is not being accused of paying for sex, but rather accused of having embarked on several extra-marital affairs and falsifying business records over payments made to hide those affairs from the voting public in 2016.

This, isn’t the onion?

Satire is dead, reality killed it.

Most countries remove their moron politicians. The United States just allows them to remain president until the end of term.

3rd world countries like the US have all sorts of backwards politics.

I had the same reaction last week when a bunch of GOP reps starting speaking in tongues on the floor.

That made my physically ill when I read about it. That's some serious theatrics and/or mental illness.
