> What if these people ... What if

What if we got proper stats instead of adding slices to the pie chart not knowing how big they are.

"What if they were all perverts". Well, that would have been remarkable in the distribution of chances.

We have plenty of those, we are just ignoring them.

There would be absolutely nothing remarkable about distribution of chances here. It is the most plausible and explanation. It is also completely consistent with all the data we have - including the fact that record of abuse never harms republican politicians. Instead, it raises their credit. It is also consistent with philosophies the leadership openly pushes for.
