Just resigned, no other consequences?

Party of Law and Order, everyone.

Article linked in another comment said he was arrested & behind bars. Your guess as to whether they mean the pub variety.

"[...] is behind bars again, this time for allegedly sexually assaulting and molesting a child."
Right, but as always the drag queens are the dangerous ones...

Not to mention he was going to drive or had just driven while high on crack cocaine...

Zero regard for human life.

This comment made me question what crack does to your reaction times. It isn't making them hallucinate as far as I know. Alcohol and cannabis slow your reaction times, but I was curious. So I ended up stumbling on this study where John Hokins er... Drugged animals https://pure.johnshopkins.edu/en/publications/effects-of-cocaine-on-simple-reaction-times-and-sensory-threshold-3/

The curious part to me was this line from the abstract. "at higher doses, either decreases or increases in reaction times were observed, depending upon the animal. "

So apparently there are times with certain beings that may have quicker reaction times maybe. Need to figure out if I'm interested enough to read the whole study to find out what they meant.

Even if the reaction times were to increase, I doubt that there's zero impact on the ability to make safe judgement calls, practice safe driving, etc.

Oh yeah I get what you mean but maybe we shouldn't assume they were making safe judgement calls in the time leading up to smoking the crack cocaine either, haha.

TIL everything seemed to go great, the next day modus told me someone must have ran into the sides back and front of his car though. Don't think they're gonna let me borrow the car again, AITA? It must have happened after I dropped it off

There's only one thing you can use the word "always" with and it's the word "projection". They will always project. So if they're screaming about pedos, that's what they'll be.

Didn't he also have a prostitute? Such a great way to give back to the community by stimulating the local economy.

I'm confused. If he's diddling with kids then, obviously, he is trying to run for presidency at some point in the future. So why resign?

Is this kiddie fiddler so incompetent that he doesn't know about darvo? The "deny everything and loudly project" process? The flooding the zone with shit approach?
If so then, yeah, he'll make a great president. The best. Tremendous even ...because that's the sort of person america votes in (TWICE!!).

Resignation for Republicans isn't the end of their career, but instead a nice vacation while they wait for the public's collective short attention span to do its thing. Then they come back in some other better paid position.

And even if a scandal blows up enough to kill their political career, they can still make bank by becoming a paid lobbyist or Fox News commentator.

Why would he resign? Republicans have no shame he could he just continued on like nothing happened.

No, you see, crack is a "lower class/black people drug" so that's why he had to resign. If he would've just snorted snow things would've been different. Because THAT is an "upper class white people pick-me-up", those are okay.

ok can someone please get a crackpipe to trump stat. we need this man hooked on crack please CIA do your thing.

Maybe he took too much downers and though the crack would pick him back up? He might not have even smoked any before he passed out.

What a dummy. Smoking crack isn't the way. Doesn't he know if he wants to rise through the ranks of the GOP he needs to molest some children?

It's gotta be an "operating" or "actual physical control" charge because they didn't see him driving.

I'm referring to how people get charged with DUIs for sleeping in the back of their car with the keys outside of the car

I don't know the actual charges in that area, but thank you

Oh my friend they absolutely do not need to see you driving impaired, just in a position you could drive impaired... Driver's seat and keys in the ignition, DUI. I think it's stupid as hell but it happens

It's so much worse than anyone outside the country realizes... But it's also better in the sense that people fighting back is never repeated in the media.

This country is deeply divided and people are protesting and resisting in every city.

But who is this guy and why have I never heard of him? Seems like a convenient distraction for something.

I believe he was chair of one of the states gop and a state representative.

Look, we're all just humans; capable of mistakes

Not saying that politicians are humans or anything like that..
