Soon-to-be former Oklahoma state senator and chairman of unpopular President Donald Trump’s Oklahoma primary campaign Ralph Shortey has turned himself in to police.
Republican Sen. Ralph Shortey, a leader of President Trump’s Oklahoma primary campaign, was charged in Cleveland County with engaging in child prostitution, transporting a minor for prostitution and engaging in prostitution within 1,000 feet of a church.

Police additionally uncovered a slew of sexually explicit messages between Shortey and the boy, including one in which the 35-year-old Republican offered him money in exchange for “sexual stuff,” according to a police report cited by the newspaper.
That’s a kind way to put it as the affidavit is pretty explicitly sexual.
Before this, Republican Ralph Shortey was known as being an early Republican adopter of Donald Trump and before that he was known as the Republican who wanted to ban fetuses after they were aborted—so they wouldn’t be used for food, like you do.
