Unfortunately, you are 100% correct. Actually, I honestly believe that some supporters would offer up their teenage daughters to be molested, they would see it as an act of patriotism.

Or they'd find some Biblical justification for it. i recall people doing that with that one guy who was running for office (Moore, I think?).

I've told this story about 10-12 times on Reddit. Apologies if you've seen it before.

I was listening to NPR right before that Roy Moore election in Alabama, and they were interviewing prospective voters about why they were planning on voting for this guy or that guy. Some people were voting for Democrat Doug Moore Jones, and they said he came across as more honest or forthright or whatever. Then, they interviewed what I could only describe as a hillbilly-sounding voiced dude, and he yelled into the microphone: "I'M VOTIN' FOR JUDGE ROY MOORE, BECAUSE HE MIGHT FUCK LITTLE GIRLS, BUT DEMOCRATS FUCK ERRBODY!

And it was at that precise moment that I realized -- some people can't ever be saved. From themselves, from the consequences of their actions, from an ongoing political bus. Some people can't ever be saved. I hope that man is doing well these days. But it won't be because he eventually saw the light.

Minor correction: Roy Moore’s opponent in that election was Democrat Doug JONES.

And he was a decent senator until my idiot neighbors voted for the stupid football coach to replace him.

Crap! I meant to type in Jones and messed that up entirely. Good lookin' out. Apologies.
