No shit. Having a convicted rapist as potus is just sick.

Technically he's a convicted felon (34 times over), but only an ajudicated rapist because he was found liable for rape in a civil lawsuit and not convicted of it in a criminal case. Having him as POTUS is still disgusting.

Yeah but I think rapist is a lot worse than embezzler. let alone should have ended his president run

Then say "Ajudicated Rapist" or just "Rapist" because both of those are accurate. He was sadly never convicted of rape.

It was only not "rape" because in NYC it's very specific. And since she couldn't confirm if it was his finger or penis (lol) it's not " rape", its sexual assault.

The rape is bad, but IMO it's less relevant to his job as president than the attempted coup, the Georgia election interference case, his mishandling of classified documents, etc.

I wouldn't be surprised if other presidents had been rapists, but I'd suspect few or none had betrayed their country as thoroughly as Trump.
