This time it’s because he liked a two-minute porn video from Sexuall Posts. At least, his account did. People took screenshots immediately because it is a blow for a senator to be caught watching rough porn. It isn’t if you don’t get caught, though.
He stated:
“There are a number of people on the team who have access on the account. It appears that someone inadvertently hit the like button. When we discovered the post, which was I guess an hour or two later, we pulled it down. It was a staffing issue. And it was inadvertent, it was a mistake. It was not a deliberate act. We’re dealing with it internally, but it was a mistake. It was not malicious.”
“This is not how I envisioned waking up this morning. Although I will say that if I had known that this would trend so quickly, perhaps we should have posted something like this back during the Indiana primary.”
Besides, it’s a little hard (pun intended) to deflect this so easily. Someone was up watching a porn video on Monday night, well after 1:30AM. To be fair, it’s one of the most normal and human things he’s ever stated, otherwise he comes across as a bit of an alien.
He always looks so uncomfortable to be there. Besides, Ted, something your rooommate said earlier seems appropriate to bring up.
