Wasn’t Pete Rose a guy who got busted for being a dirty dirty cheat? I can see why Trump would like the guy.

He was banned for life for gambling. A few times, he bet on or against his own team.

He also had sex with a 15-year-old when he was in his 30s.

Yeah, Pete Rose was a real piece of shit. But the point here is he was posting about Pete Rose during the debate.

That’s true, but I also think it’s important to note that he was posting about a pedophile who was banned from the MLB for betting against his own team.
