LAS VEGAS (AP) — Pimp Dennis Hof, the owner of half a dozen legal brothels in Nevada and star of the HBO adult reality series "Cathouse," won a Republican primary for the state Legislature on Tuesday, ousting a three-term lawmaker. Hof defeated hospital executive James Oscarson. He'll face Democrat Lesia Romanov in November, and will be the favored candidate in the Republican-leaning Assembly district. Hof celebrated his win at a party in Pahrump with Hollywood Madam Heidi Fleiss at his side. "It's all because Donald Trump was the Christopher Columbus for me," Hof told the Associated Press in a phone call. "He found the way and I jumped on it." Hof, who wrote a book titled "The Art of the Pimp," has dubbed himself "The Trump of Pahrump," and held a rally with longtime Trump adviser Roger Stone. Hof was in the limelight in 2015, when former NBA player Lamar Odom was found unconscious at Hof's Love Ranch brothel in Crystal, Nevada, after a four-day, $75,000 stay. If Hof wins in November, he wouldn't be the only brothel owner in elected office — Lance Gilman, the owner of the famous Mustang Ranch in northern Nevada, is a Storey County Commissioner.

Isn’t he worried about getting a bad reputation?
He’s qualified for a leadership position.
(tip of the hat to whoever I stole that from!)

Considering all the crooks in Congress, a pimp might be the most honorable man in office. Drain the Swamp.
Talking Point #2: This guy owns brothels. He exploits women! You can't vote for people who treat sex so casually.
ISWYDT
A very local state win. Sad the state Republican or national Republican parties haven’t booted him. He’s a pimp! Running prostitution. And worse, self-described conservatives and Christians here on FR are schilling for him. Their lame excuse is that his business pays lots of taxes, so they personally profit off him, thus his business is okay since he gives them lower taxes. Incredible. Disgusting.
As I told Dennis, I can understand owning brothels, it’s an honest business, people pay to get screwed and the get screwed.
I don’’t understand why you went into politics, people pay to NOT get screwed and they STILL get screwed!
Dagnabbit!! And I searched before posting the thread;(
Unsurprisingly, we now regularly hear talking point #2 from the NeverTrump neo-cons.
He hasn’t broken any laws. He can’t be worse than some already in Congress.
Is that really all that matters? Shall we apply that same to other topics. Do you say in your personal actions, to your kids, if it is legal, go for it? Seriously?
The oh so high and mighty Reno wants this shit happening on the streets of the cities instead of places where it can be controlled.
Then, at a previous thread, it makes the case that county residents who accept the fact that a major part of the county budget is supplied by these places, are as low life as the Pimps. Yet it wouldnt lift ONE FINGER to replace those county budgets if they closed those places down.

Only if he wins.
Successful businessman—may well add some good things to State Government. Its Nevada after all.
How would you feel if he owned an abortion clinic, after all, it’s still legal.
And my neighbor won the Dem primary for NV AG yesterday. Too bad he’s such a liberal.
Is he doing something Illegal?
If anything, he is a Libertarian, not a Conservative Republican.
Imagine if he owned a Gun Store.
No, this is wrong. This is not Nevada. It is not Republican, not Christian, not conservative. It stains all.
