The Mann Act?! LOL.... what is this, the 1920s? The Mann act? I can’t stop laughing. This was a law written back when someone smuggled a Model-A full of flappers to a speakeasy across the state line.

How in the hell do you get caught up in THAT throwback of a law?

Ask Trump.

Obviously, regardless of whether he was guilty of anything, they went after him for a reason.

The law was passed by a society that sought to channel sex into marriage, as that avoided STDs and illegitimate children before abortion became accepted as a means of birth control after the fact. Today's society is quite different from that one. It's far more libertine and sinful.

Stupidity and selective prosecution of consensual behavior. Who did Combs think he was, Hunter Biden? If he paid a woman to cross state lines for sex, he did commit a crime.
