    His comments were along the lines of blaming rape victims for being raped. This story right here shows that he didn’t grow from it, these are the things he actually believes.

      I mean maybe but also that’s not the point? As I said, this accusation (still not proven) came after he won the primary. It’s not something anyone could’ve known before that, so using it as a gotcha against progressive who got him the nomination doesn’t make sense.

        This isn’t the first accusation, he has an extensive history of commenting things like rape victims are to blame for being raped, and worked as a mercenary in Afghanistan.

        Don’t tell me this is something no one could have known about.
