I put this in AIBU for traffic. I am furious and I know what I’m feeling is reasonable. Trump has convinced/bullied whatever Romania into releasing the bastards and has allowed them to fly to America. They are on their way to Florida. No doubt to be wined and dined at bloody Maralago. They will now have a luxury life and continue to be able to abuse and exploit women and girls and also corrupt the minds of boys and young men. 😡

I'm sure the US tax man would like a word with them.

That would be nice but Elon Musk has DOGE'd the tax man.

USA 2025 is beyond parody.

Trump is a lying piece of shit.

"In a video explaining why he moved to Romania, he said "probably 40% of the reason" he moved was because it would be easier to evade rape charges."

Maybe if they'd stayed in the UK they could have cleared that up.

At the outset, but they have not been locked up for some time. They were simply prevented from leaving the country. Do you really think splitting hairs over this is in any way important?

Show quote history

Yes I do. I wouldn't call it splitting hairs, when you said they had done no jail time but they have. I'd say spending months in prison, then further months under house arrest is pretty significant if the person has not been convicted of a crime.

'but they have not been locked up for some time.' Well why should they be? They haven't been found guilty.

I'm sorry but I think a lot of people let their judgment get clouded by their opinions of the people involved. I think they are a pair of arseholes as much as the next woman, I just don't think it is right to punish/penalise someone until they have been found guilty (with a few exceptions)

Incorrect. They were imprisoned in Romania for 3 months. Then placed under house arrest after that. Authorities have now lifted the travel restrictions.

The governor of my beloved home state of Florida said a few hours ago that they are not welcome in Florida, and that the state will be looking to see if any crimes were committed in Florida so they can be tried under state law. The penalty for sex trafficking is 30 years and the penalty for rape of a minor (aggravated sexual battery) is life without the possibility of parole.

Let's hope they effed up in Florida, because my state will get them if they did.

If only this was a happy ever after to a very awful story.

That would be excellent, but wouldn’t Trump gave a way of crushing it?

They were not locked up. They had their passports held whilst the case came to court because they were a flight risk. Do you really have a problem with that given that they were charged with multiple rapes, trafficking of children and money laundering?

What are you on about? They were imprisoned for 3 months and put under house arrest after that.

It is the Romanian authorities who have lifted the travel restrictions. Do you?

Of course you can - have you never heard of remand or internment? They weren't even 'locked up', they were on bail but had their passports seized as they were a flight risk.

Watching the BBCs live news I don't know what's real anymore.

Same here. It feels like absolutely nothing would surprise me any more.

Wildflowers99 · 27/02/2025 18:55

If this doesn’t show the cultural differences between the USA and the UK, I don’t know what does. I feel like people are often fooled into thinking we’re very similar because they speak English and the States feels familiar from being on TV. But our mindsets feel worlds apart, and despite the language barriers, right now this has cemented my feeling that our natural home is with the EU countries.

We desperately need to get back in the EU and reconnect so we are not forced to suck up to this monstrosity. I so wish Starmer would just make a unilateral decision to do it and fuck the Brexit referendum. It was near on 10 years ago and all it’s done is make us weaker and more isolated.

er, yes we can. When the crimes are serious enough. When they’re a flight risk for example. Or if they’re a danger to the public.
or if they are in a position to intimidate witnesses … all of which they are Sex trafficking, abuse, rape …

Allegedly.

And denied that he said that Zelensky was a dictator.

So we probably know how seriously to take his claim that he knew nothing about it.

RafaistheKingofClay · 27/02/2025 18:37

He also seems to have said that Starmer is a special man and I’m fairly certain that wasn’t what he’s was saying a few weeks ago when Musk was kicking off about the grooming gang inquiries.

@Ablondiebutagoody I'm guessing you don't work in a Secondary school. It's not just the Tates but they have a huge influence on many young men. Misogyny is rife in schools and fuelled by men like them

Hufflemuff · 27/02/2025 18:32

Fingers crossed nothing awful happens to them in America.... Its a very dangerous country and there are a lot of people who don't agree with what these nasty shits are spouting.

NotTerfNorCis · 27/02/2025 18:29

I am wondering how the GC feminists who said and still say they like trump because he “knows what a woman is” will defend this.

No feminists support Trump. A lot of conservatives oppose genderism, as well as feminists. In fact, the ridiculousness of genderism was an absolute gift to the right. Now it's taking feminism and gay rights down with it.

They seem like a pair of tw@ts but pretty insignificant really so not worth getting worked up about.

They're far from insignificant they're horribly dangerous it's a worry how much influence they have.

So if you had sons, you really think that they would be persuaded to get into the sex trafficking business because of Andrew Tate?

Show quote history

So you don't think there's anything short of 'will make your son become a sex trafficer' that would qualify as harmful? You're fine with the idea that millions of boys and young men are following and admiring someone like Tate and that Trump might make that seem more acceptable by supporting him?

Whatafustercluck · 27/02/2025 18:13

No chance. Some Republicans (like DeSantis) will make outraged statements to start, then Trump will say something like the Tate brothers are actually victims of sex trafficking, then the other Republicans will start repeating it.

I dont think there's ever been such a collective lack of spines in any political party.
