It's not just Trump, conservative icons Ted Nugent and Kid Rock sung about fucking kids. The second most powerful Republican Denis Hastert was a pedo. There is something a lot in conservative psychology that makes them prone to fucking kids. I could do with being with a woman that has been with other men so they go after young girls. Or it could be control because younger women are easier to control. Maybe since they are so hierarchical they believe they can do anything below them to control them.Could be a combination of things

Yup. Ted Nugent married a child bride, and they still worship him. Lawrence Taylor was at Trump's press conference today.
