    If we could then he’d be a proven sex trafficker and not alleged!

    You can allege anything you want about anyone. Your allegations and your opinion are worth less than a cup of coffee at McDonald's after a senior discount

    Pretty sure the dem party gaslighted Trump all through his presidency with the Trump campaign Investigaton and the two Trump impeachments. for example. The head gaslighter (among many others) on the dem side during the Trump presidency who deserved not to be on the house intelligence committee was Adam Schiff, for example.

    There was "reasonable doubt" that started the DOJ investigation.... the lack of evidence (if any) that was the outcome of the investigation was deemed by the prosecutors was not enough to hold up in court..

    You obviously have stepped outside of Alinsky's rule #2
    RULE 2: “Never go outside the expertise of your people.”

    You are grasping and don't know what you are talking about...

    Please take time to read the articles before replying with your misinformation and untruths

    “The Department of Justice has confirmed to Congressman Gaetz’s attorneys that their investigation has concluded and that he will not be charged with any crimes,”

    Isn’t that just, using your application of the word, gaslighting Schiff?

    So, you'd be comfortable if your neighbors or anyone did the same to you, allegations?

    He was not ****ing cleared. A decision was made not to charge him. That is not clearing him. You have no clue what is reasonable doubt. Reasonable doubt is never the basis of an investigation. You are making stupid assertions.

    Reasonable suspicion is needed to start an investigation … you are correct…. Reasonable doubt is used to get warrants…. You are the one claiming reasonable doubt, not me….
    Show us the DOJ investigation report and we can decide what they had on Gaetz

    Why not show folks where he was cleared of wrongdoing?

    No, probable cause is needed and that IS different from reasonable suspicion which is meaningless.
    AGAIN NO. Why not just educate yourself before making stupid posts?
    Bullshit. Quote the post.
    It is ****ing irrelevant. They did not clear him, they decided not to charge, which does in no way negate the allegations.
