Making Porn Great Again (the article is down a ways, ctrl+f)

The Republican Party platform warns that pornography has become a “public health crisis.”

But rank and file Republicans seem unlikely to take on the mammoth industry any time soon. According to xHamster, one of the leading aggregators of online porn, traffic from users in Cleveland spiked significantly this week as the Republican National Convention got underway. Viewership in the city shot up by 184 percent from its pre-convention average, surpassing traffic the site gets from people in large cities including New York, Miami and Los Angeles.

“This increase is unprecedented,” said Mike Kulich, a spokesman for the web site. “They’re making porn great again.”

This isn’t the first time xHamster has involved itself in Republican politics. After North Carolina passed a discriminatory law that banned transgender people from using public restrooms consistent with their gender identity, the web site banned users in that state from accessing the site for a day. After access was restored, North Carolina users were required to state in a pop-up box that they were opposed to the law before being allowed to access videos.

Earlier this month, the site published a map with the top search terms in states that traditionally vote Republican. The prevailing one was “cuckold.”
