Have yet to find any pedophilia connections yet but it seems to be connected to political money laundering to this chain restaurant called Pizza Ranch.
"I feel at home. I'm at a Pizza Ranch."
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee sat at a table in the buffet chain's Council Bluffs location in late March. His town hall meeting was winding down, and he would soon hop in a car to another meeting at another Pizza Ranch (this one in Sioux City). But with the smells of fried chicken and pepperoni in the air, the winner of the 2008 Iowa caucuses waxed nostalgic.
"I largely won it because of Pizza Ranches all over the state," Huckabee said. "We created the Pizza Ranch strategy. A lot of people have copied it since then, but I think we created it."
Presidential hopefuls campaigning at Pizza Ranches across Iowa — the "Pizza Ranch circuit," the media call it — has become a staple of the Iowa caucuses. The down-home,"- http://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/elections/presidential/caucus/2015/05/03/pizza-ranch-circuit-iowa-caucuses/26844813/
Some of that odd food descriptions we've seen IMO.VVV = "We got the best chicken in town. We have very, very good pizzas ... a very wide variety of pizzas," said Kim Worden, the restaurant's assistant manager."- http://www.npr.org/sections/itsallpolitics/2015/08/11/431611133/pizza-ranch-fueling-campaigns-on-cheese-and-chicken

Connection to a Bob Vander Plaats (Robert Lee "Bob" Vander Plaats is an American politician and political activist. He is currently the president and CEO of The Family Leader, a social conservative organization, and the National Co-Chair for Ted Cruz for President. ) - http://www.newtonindependent.com/newton_independent/2011/01/reporters-notebook-the-vander-plaatspizza-ranch-connection-1.html
Ted Cruz connection, By the time of the caucuses, Cruz — and most of the other candidates — will have made multiple Pizza Ranch visits. Mike Huckabee told the Des Moines Register that he won the 2008 caucuses in large part through such visits: “We created the Pizza Ranch strategy. A lot of people have copied it since then, but I think we created it. This election cycle, klatches at the chain take place almost daily: a candidate in a suit (or jeans, depending on the desired optics of the day) scarfs a slice while ringed by ruddy men in ball caps, most of them obese, many of them corn growers, chicken growers, or hog growers under contract to a handful of corporations."- https://thefern.org/2016/08/the-trouble-with-iowa/
Any more leads would be helpful I searched the forum there isn't a single post about these guys but i'm sure with some digging we can connect them. Understandable this needs more investigating but seems like a reasonable place to start.

You show your true colors when you go thru that massive fucking wall of text that was my post and reply with that simple link. Like.... no information, no theory, no facts, nothing you've added nothing. Just a little fucking passive aggressive bitch move.

Haha no need to be so emotional buddy. I personally think the Don is a hero. But that link shows a fact: an endorsement by the founder of PizzaRanch. Nothing less, nothing more. Stay open-minded. You never know. If it was Clinton, the link would surely have made it to the OP. So it is only fair to include it in this topic. That is all.

Not emotional just passionate, the children need us. And you really didn't add anything, the GOP candidate ALWAYS hits the "Pizza Ranch Circuit" every election cycle. You have to look deeper than that. If you can find any other additional connections I would love to hear them. I dont expect you to though, not anymore to Trump at least. I looked into this quite a bit and I have made many connections but the only the one of Trump is him going to a Pizza Ranch on the campaign trail which is the default for GOP candidates. If he was previously affiliated with the GOP party you may have more of a case to make but he has never been in politics before, so again really no connection there. I am pretty unbiased and there are quite a few GOP party members in the OP, hell the post is about a convicted Republican pedophile, hes the founder of Pizza Ranch. So yea... if you have something to add i'm always open and up for debate but this just seems like a shill/troll post, I did find the link about Trumps visit when I was making up the post and dove in as far as I could but there were no other connections to Trump that I could find at least. therefor that link was omitted from the OP. The reason being as I stated before he has never been a GOP member before so there is no previous ties to Pizza Ranch, or the Pizza Ranch Circuit other than the default scheduled visit to the Pizza Ranch Circuit that every GOP candidate does during their campaign trail.
