Taylor has appeared on stage with Trump at campaign rallies in the past. But his attendance at the White House on Thursday comes as Trump faces increasing pressure over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender

Trump signed an executive order on Thursday to reestablish the Presidential Fitness Test for American children and reinvigorate a national sports council.

Taylor and other figures from the sports world, including pro golfer Bryson DeChambeau and Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker joined Trump in the Roosevelt Room of the White House to become formal members of the council, known as the President's Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition.

Taylor was arrested in 2010 on rape and prostitution charges in connection with the assault of a 16-year-old girl. He pleaded guilty in 2011 to misdemeanor charges of sexual misconduct and patronizing a prostitute, was sentenced to six years of probation and ordered to register as a sex offender.

Uh oh is right. The only qualification for a federal job right now is passing a political litmus test to support Trump.

Competence is not needed.
Having appeared on television is a big plus.
Sexual assault on an underage prostitute is not a minus.

Sounds like pretty sloppy vetting. Has Trump said anything like he doesn't care about that, he wants Taylor anyways?

This is sure to take attention away from the that whole Epstein thing.
That's what's being said about anything and everything that happens. Probably even 'the recent 8.8 earthquake and tsunami happened to take attention away from Epstein'.

No. The earth is not on Trumps side.

Because everything that’s come out after their attempt at a cover up just feels like further attempts at distraction from the cover up.

No, weather and geological manipulation are only Democrat conspiracies.

I don't recall the current president of the United States making any mention of the earthquake and subsequent tsunami. Do you have a link?

Ms. Greene has brought a bill to make weather manipulation a felony. I don't know how she thinks contrails can be eliminated though.

Pardons also seem to follow these rules. Supporting Trump is the most important quality.

'Says a lot': Trump slammed after withholding pardon because rapper 'was not nice to him'

Hip-hop mogul Sean Combs was recently convicted on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, and Trump has been mulling the possibility of a potential pardon. But Stein said the NewsMax interview now suggests a “no” on that, and he slammed Trump’s reasons for refusing.

“Well, he was essentially half innocent,” Trump told his host. “ … Probably—you know I was very friendly with him. I get along with him. And he seemed like a nice guy. I didn’t know him well. But when I ran for office, he was very hostile.”

"We’re human beings and we don’t like to have things cloud our judgement, right? But when you know someone and you were fine and then you run for office and he makes some terrible statements … it makes it more difficult. I’m being honest. It makes it more difficult to do,” Trump said.

[George Santos has a good shot, though.] "he was 100 percent for Trump,” Trump told NewMax.

I really don't think Trump thinks it's wrong to have sex with underage girls or prostitutes.

Back in 2017 an Alabama state Auditor used the Bible to defend Roy Moore when he was accused of raping a 14 year old girl. The Alabama official said "the relationship would be akin to that of Joseph and Mary" and "Take the Bible: Zachariah and Elizabeth for instance Zachariah was extremely old to marry Elizabeth and they became the parents of John the Baptist. Also take Joseph and Mary. Mary was a teenager and Joseph was an adult carpenter. They became parents of Jesus. There’s just nothing immoral or illegal here. Maybe just a little bit unusual."

Perhaps someone will use the Bible to defend Lawrence Taylor in the same way.
