In the case of trump and rape the distinction doesn’t matter. But in other cases it does.
A 50yr old raping a 5 year old, is different than a 23year old having a “consensual” relationship with a 17year old. A 17 year old is underage, but not a child. The latter is creepy and should not be encouraged, but a very clear distinction compared to the former. Objectively, the former is worse than the latter.

Wow. Didn’t think a pedophile would get an up vote. Calling a 6 year age gap at that age is not just creepy.
Regardless of my opinion, we don’t need to be throwing that accusation around so lightly.
He’s allowed to have that opinion and discuss it without being accused.
