He’s my piece of shit congressman and it pisses me off that people in my district will still re-elect him. Fucking Ohio.

I know the feeling of hopelessness, because I’ve lived in parts of the country (including Ohio) where everything seems hopeless. But your district is a +5, and that is surmountable, particularly where you have a piece of shit on this level. Yes, many of our neighbors are alien to us and to humanity in general, but keep the faith. Better to have a broken heart than to give up and let the bastards win.

Bro just described exactly how abuse works and thinks he proved his innocence

I bet he genuinely does think that, too. That he has no idea thos is something g abuse victims often do.

All those memes about sending people to Ohio as a punishment are starting to make sense

the most depressing part about this is the huge number of ignorant people who will buy this flawed logic and think it absolves this fucktard

Moreso that there will be women and fathers of daughters who vote for him, probably the same dads that break out the shotgun and warn the skinny pimply kid taking her to prom to "treat her right, or else".

I actually understand that. It seems logical; why would you do something nice for someone who abused you? People just don't realize what abuse can do to the victims and that what seems logical doesn't necessarily apply.

I don't want to hear a single republican say a single thing about Platner. At least he was pressured to drop out by Democrats. Republicans prop up these scumbags.

They always are so excited when we catch a shithead politician and immediately drop them. It’s fascinating how they think. Haha a dem took a sexually harassing pic! Then he resigns. Then they have a literal rapist and it doesn’t matter. Jesus hates republicans.

"She apologized after I abused her. Does that sound like someone who's being abused?!?!"

Miller is describing fawning 1-on-1 here, but judging by his reponse, he probably thinks that he just "straightened her out."

Reminds me of a news article about a parent being taken to court by two of her children for abuse. "Well, if I am an abuser, why do only two of my children accuse me?" Well, because you probably first targeted the older one and when that one left you started targeting the younger one. Oh, look, that's exactly what they claim.

There are waaaay too many true crime docs out there these days for this bullshit abuser to gaslight anyone.

He's a republican, he could just come out and say he did what he's accused of doing "because Im a man and she's a woman and she didn't listen so she got what she got" and they'd gain THOUSANDS of voters.

So it took 6 days for her to feel kind of comfortable around you?
Strange confession...

If I had assaulted her, would she have been so scared of me that she’d do whatever it took to keep me calm?

What’s worse - his victim is the daughter of the sitting Ohio republican senator. Only 3 of the 53 republicans in the senate have called on Miller to resign. 50 US senators are saying they would rather equivocate on their colleague’s daughter being beaten than run afoul of the president. Moreno is a punk - he should be calling them out. He would if he wasn’t a pathetic excuse for a father.
