Yeah, his congressional district is adjacent to mine. I drive through it or visit places within it all the time. There are some safe areas, but plenty of deeply red areas throughout.

These people do not care if their representative is a domestic abuser, as long as he’s a republican. They have zero moral philosophy beyond “democrats are pure evil.” I went to a county fair in his district once and the people there were all extreme MAGA cultists, sporting very aggressive / downright hateful pro-trump t-shirts & hats, signs, flags, etc. It was gross.

It’s Ohio, there’s a lot of support for beating women and lynching anyone who reads books.

They vote for pedophiles and rapists, of course they are going to be ok with abusers. I bet it makes him more popular.

Republikkkans are disgusting vile people.

Because abusers protect abusers.

“Family values”

To the Republican mind, any behavior is acceptable if one’s in-group status is high enough.
