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."

Typifies conservative values of the Republican party.

1. Very much the face of today's GOP.

When they're not pimping, they're ho'ing.

[question everything]

2. He grabbed p***y before Trump made it fashionable

[aikoaiko]

3. At least Hof owns up to what he is.

That's a step up from Trump.

4. Anytime a Republican incumbent is out...

Democrats get a better chance to oust the Party!

5. How low are the American people willing to go...

con men and women, thieves, pimps, racists, misogynists,
homophobes all running for office or already in office. What is to become of this once great country when a large percentage of Americans vote for and support these people and their despicable leader.

6. Pahrump, Nevada

There are maybe 65,000 residents in the district...basically one large retirement community. Think Colorado Springs...lots of old white people with keep off the lawn signs. This is where Art Bell hosted his show about the paranormal for decades. Tin-foil central.

9. I've driven through Pahrump...

Most of these old white folks live in trailers....the epitome of white trash.

I usually don't feel uncomfortable when traveling...but being of 100% Mexican descent and, you know....brown and all, this is one place I felt unsettled, even just getting gas.

On Edit: A Pimp and Cathouse owner from the part of "family values" You can't make this shit up!

7. They are Libertarians and Libertines when it comes to them

but sadists when it comes to liberals or poor people

[Canoe52]

8. From a gop standpoint he represents family values...how?

[workinclasszero]

10. And this pimp has the full backing of the evangelical right, right to lifers

Focus on the Family etc

11. the Bible is a big book

I bet they can find something in there to say God thinks pimps are awesome.

12. Have never heard a "Christian" condemn the story about Lot in the Old Testament

who was told by 2 angels to leave Sodom before God destroyed it, and take his family, and his wife looked back at the town and turned into a "pillar of salt" who later got his two daughters drunk in order to impregnate them so he could continue "his line."

Have never heard one "Christian" indicate anyone who questioned whether or not Lot's idea was wonderful, or any part of the story deserved a good hard squint.

13. God bless them all. The world is turning their way with guys like Dennis Hof on their side.

What a real all-American guy. Only the best.
