Why do people make the "young men shouldn't have their lives ruined by being identified as rapists" argument but never the "young men shouldn't have their lives ruined by being identified as murderers" argument? Misogyny.

Since Trump took office, the average household has paid over $4,200 extra for everyday goods and services, thanks to his backwards policies. Trump promised $2 gas. Today, the national average is $4.48 — while diesel has surged to a record $6.53 a gallon. Republicans have done NOTHING to stop this.
