    It’s less about what was done than the hypocrisy. Especially the hypocrisy of doing it while kids were around. Hell, I expect the hypocrisy out of her but that doesn’t mean I’m going to ignore it.

    It’s the same reason we talk shit about all the Republicans that get caught doing gay shit. I don’t care if someone enjoys doing gay shit. Good for them. But if you’ve voted for laws that harm the LGBTQ+ community and get caught sucking dick in an airport bathroom then I’m going to make fun of you.

        She was groping him over the clothes, not stroking him off. And there weren’t any kids in that audience. Or at least, none that were caught on camera.

        She embarrasses herself enough without having to completely make up details.

            I’m assuming you meant the young girl at about the 17 second mark.

            Wherever she ended up, she did not sit behind Bobo:

            And when you make an accusation that she was stroking him off when in reality she copped a quick feel over his pants, whether his dick was out absolutely does make a huge difference. Her behavior was wholly inappropriate, especially considering she’s an adult and a Congresswoman, but she didn’t do anything that thousands of teenagers don’t do regularly when on a date in a dark theater. Let’s not make it out to be worse than it really was just because the person involved is unpopular.
