It's not "perfectly normal". Child sex trafficking is actually against the law in the Philippines, your attempts to rationalize it notwithstanding:

Section 4. Acts of Trafficking in Persons.— It shall be unlawful for any person, natural or juridical, to commit any of the following acts:


(a) To recruit, transport, transfer; harbor, provide, or receive a person by any means, including those done under the pretext of domestic or overseas employment or training or apprenticeship, for the purpose of prostitution, pornography, sexual exploitation, forced labor, slavery, involuntary servitude or debt bondage;


(b) To introduce or match for money, profit, or material, economic or other consideration, any person or, as provided for under Republic Act No. 6955, any Filipino woman to a foreign national, for marriage for the purpose of acquiring, buying, offering, selling or trading him/her to engage in prostitution, pornography, sexual exploitation, forced labor, slavery, involuntary servitude or debt bondage;


(c) To offer or contract marriage, real or simulated, for the purpose of acquiring, buying, offering, selling, or trading them to engage in prostitution, pornography, sexual exploitation, forced labor or slavery, involuntary servitude or debt bondage;


R.A. No. 9208: Anti-Trafficking in Persons Act of 2003
Who's talking about child sex trafficking? Sheesh. I'm talking girls in their late teens on into their 20's marrying older men.

It's not just children, sex trafficking is illegal period:
To introduce or match for money, profit, or material, economic or other consideration, any person or, as provided for under Republic Act No. 6955, any Filipino woman to a foreign national, for marriage for the purpose of acquiring, buying, offering, selling or trading him/her to engage in prostitution, pornography, sexual exploitation, forced labor, slavery, involuntary servitude or debt bondage;

I don't know where you ever got the idea that it was legal for a rich American to the fly to the Philippines and basically buy himself a living sex doll, but that's just not the case.

good to see your concern on this topic. I'm sure you'll therefore be supporting the closing of borders to stop sex trafficking

How uninformed are you? Thousands of American men live in the Philippines with younger wives. Nothing illegal about it. Plenty more have brought young wives from the Philippines to the States. Nothing illegal about it. As a matter of fact because of all the American retirees and their wives and children the largest Social Security office in the world outside of the U.S. is attached to our embassy in Manila. Certainly if the sole purpose of the marriage was to enslave the girl and force her into a life of sex bondage that of course is illegal and reprehensible. But you're assuming that's what it's all about and couldn't be further from the truth.

The question is how uninformed are you?
I linked to the law and quoted the relevant sections, you're just waving your hands around and and making things up.

So you don't think all of those marriages are legit? I've delivered to maybe a dozen Fil/Am couples over the years. There are huge groups on Yahoo and Facebook about living in the Philippines and marrying young ADULT Filipinas is a major topic. I was planning to go over after retiring at FedEx and finding a wife there but a woman I dated in college contacted me and we're now married.

I'm not talking about what other people may or may not have done, I'm talking about what you planned on doing. It's illegal:
To introduce or match for money, profit, or material, economic or other consideration, any person or, as provided for under Republic Act No. 6955, any Filipino woman to a foreign national, for marriage

I like how a serial woman abuser reality tv star from New York has done a better job of governing than the last 4 presidents combined.

It drives the dems nuts even with every hit piece the drive by media manufacture about him and every investigation democrats can launch he is still in office. I’m looking forward to a victory in 2020, the 2016 videos are getting old.

I said Trump bragged about forcing himself on women without consent.

You deflected to Clinton.

I pointed out your deflection.

You continue to deflect.

I'm not sure why you can't admit trump is a POS. It's not that complicated.
That's your opinion. What I have been trying to convey is that if you think he's a POS it doesn't make him a POS. And back to your own deflection, the alternative solution would've been worse. That's my opinion.

You're just changing the subject to defer dealing with reality.

Yeah, we need another Obama as potus just to watch the world shake their heads at weakness. Heck, Putin said he was "ignorant" and proved it by provoking our navy vessels by buzzing our ships with their migs about 20 ft over the decks with no response from the impotent potus.

Try it now and there will be little pieces of Russian jets floating in the ocean.

Evidently your opinion is in the minority.

Btw: the office of the potus is not the same as the Pope's and the requirements aren't parallel to Catholic priests or Protestant pastors or leaders.
There are no perfect people walking around so let's dig into every presidential candidate's past with a microscope before they get elected and weed out the sinful ones? There won't be anyone left.

All this smoke and alleged past transgression finger pointing is just to slow or stop any progress made by the president.

Take him out of office and replace him with Pence. Their agenda is the same:

Re-instill pride in being an American (after two terms of the obama opologies and the "man" literally bowing to foreign leaders), bring jobs back home, and protect our citizens.

The rest is smoke.

Trump sees a problem and tries to solve it......how does that make him a POS? A POS is one who does nothing and blocks anyone's efforts to solve problems......all Dems of congress are Pieces of %$@*.
