Trump will always protect sex traffickers, pedophiles and rapists. It's just in his nature to be kind to his kind.
wow, the turd squad is out in full-force.
FYI, OP, in the US, Tate is universally hated for being a neo-nazi kiddie fucker. you may find a tiny minority of equally-demented idiots that are also neo-nazi kiddie fuckers, but you won't be welcome here for the millennia such an exercise might take. oh, and if y9ou do it sooner, give us their names and addresses-- so we can share our holiday cheer!
if you think that's a good thing... well, lol, fuck you.
- He's universally hated except by high-level Republicans who worked to protect him from prosecution
  
  I prefer the term "adjudicated rapist, 34x felon, and kiddie-fucker" rather than "Republican", but... whatever you're most comfortable with.
- Where did OP imply they at all thought this was a good thing?
  
  thanks for reminding me of the sad state of American education. you provide such an excellent example.
They likely asked his release in return for money and association. Lose 1 point with “Christians” and gain 20 with incels, and a tidy little check. What an utterly bizarre base republicans are courting.
- There were rumors Trump did it because Barron is a Tate fan.
- I think they're losing the plot. Elon poisoning X means they're living In an alternate reality
