Trump talked about perving on the girls in the Miss USA pageant years ago.

Here are some pictures of Trump doing absolutely normal things with his teenage daughter.

MAGA knew what Trump was in 2015 and loved him anyway.

Yeah, MAGA hasn't changed, and it was never admirable. In addition to what you said, Trump's Access Hollywood tape was his October Surprise in 2016. That's the one where he talks about grabbing women "by the pussy."

He's confessing a habit of sexual assault. And the tape doesn't sound like he's joking. We've seen since then testimony that he did that exact thing to E Jean Carrol, which basically confirms that he wasn't joking.

The same goes for the other points. There's no before and after here except for the mask gradually slipping 'til they just went fuck it and tore it off all the way.

Am I the only person who sees nothing wrong with his photo shoot with his daughter? Almost every dad on earth will have entirely innocent pictures with their children that taken out of context could be made to look like they're inappropriate.

I'm making no assertions about whether or not he's a paedophile (I happen to think he probably isn't, but certainly is complicit in the actions of a paedophile) but twisting every photo into "look! Pedo!" harms the actual argument.

sigh, I guess I am

I think what needs to be very clear is Trump's clear sexual objectification of women throughout his entire life. When he judges women, it's about how sexually appealing he finds them. If asked about a woman, he instinctively comments on their appearance whether or not it is at all relevant to the question. The only other thing that's as important to him is whether or not they say nice things about him and are loyal to him.

These comments really don't change that much when he talks about underage girls. He'd walk in on underage girls dressing during his beauty pageants. He doesn't even feel shame speaking the same way about his daughter, or having others speak the same way about her. I don't see how someone incapable of seeing underage girls through any lense other than how beautiful and desirable they are could be anything but a pedophile.

I assume you're not serious.

If it were one picture, you might have a point.

I did a search of "Donald Trump fondling Ivanka" and got a library.

Also, Ivanka once made a cute joke. She made Daddy promise not to date anyone younger than her.

Bonus. Trump and his teenage daughter standing next to an obscene statue, because that's what every daddy does, right?
