    I doubt it’s a blackmail thing, because at this point, not one of Trump’s supporters would give a damn if it was clearly proven that Trump personally took CP pictures.

    I think Putin just whispers sweet nothings into Trump’s ear and controls him that way.

      A large part of their movement is based on aesthetics. And csam is probably a bridge too far for them. It just looks ugly. But I have no doubt many of them don’t care about that either.

      But from the blackmail angle, the public image of a sick pedo is not compatible with the orange man’s public facing persona and his narcissism would make him the perfect blackmail target
