Among the lowlights we failed to include in last week's list...

That horrific 2017 sexual assault allegation
His 2002 argument in a student newspaper that having sex with unconscious women shouldn’t be classified as rape
His serial philandering and the blackmail it could inspire
His 2019 argument that fellow vets receiving government assistance violate "the ethos of service" by being “dependent” on the government
His pro-waterboarding, anti-Geneva Conventions position at the 2016 Conservative Forum
His “who cares” approach to nuclear warfare (this one seems to be of grave concern considering his current job prospects)
His suggestion that we should “just get rid of” the United Nations
His eyebrow-raising "Deus Vult” tattoo
His membership in a “Christian supremacist church”
His belief that higher Muslim birthrates represent "a slow motion 9/11"
And, finally, his promotion of a bestiality-coded opinion piece that called the “homosexual lifestyle abnormal and immoral”
