RALEIGH, N.C. — A married couple from Guilford County have become the faces of a new Donald Trump-themed dating website.

Barrett and Jodi Riddleberger's smiles, beneath Trump campaign baseball caps, are the first thing greeting visitors at Trump.dating.

The Riddlebergers have been active in Guilford County Republican politics over the years. Jodi Riddleberger co-founded C4GC, Conservatives for Guilford County, and she and her husband have both donated money to the group.

The site has gotten some media coverage recently, primarily because it's designed to serve only straight people, letting people sign up only if they choose "straight man" or "straight woman" at the outset. Some reports have also noted that, once a person gets past the initial sign-up page, he or she can choose "happily married" or "unhappily married" as a status before finalizing a profile and meeting new potential dates.

gotta include this paragraph

WRAL News would not agree to that. Riddleberger's past includes a felony conviction for taking indecent liberties with a child in in 1995. The charge stemmed from his videotaping himself having sex with a 15-year-old girl, the Greensboro News & Record reported in 2014.

OMG (my words).... Only the best. Sad.

1. So they can sign up for this dating site as long as they're not gay,

but adultery doesn't seem to be a problem, since they can identify themselves as happily or unhappily married. Gotta love those GOP family values.

2. really scraping the bottom of the barrel. Only the worst people.

Those are going to be some dates.

4. I hope they don't breed.

Otherwise the whole mess will look like outtakes from Deliverance.

8. I wonder if there's an option for men looking for teenage girls

[LiberalFighter]

18. Maybe they should infiltrate the site and play with them.

[Flaleftist]

20. Paging Anonymous

Wait until a bunch of married Trumpers sign up and then procure membership information and post it online.

3. Actually a good idea!

I know a couple who met through a dating service. They were well-matched. They drove each other crazy and made each other miserable!

[nuxvomica]

21. This reminds me of a Tennyson anecdote

Someone remarked about a married couple who were always fighting that it was a pity they ever found each other because it resulted in two lives condemned to misery. Tennyson responded that on the contrary it was a blessing, because if they had not found each other and married others, four lives would have been condemned to misery.

I think of a dating service for Trumpers as something of a romantic quarantine.

5. sounds like a conservative cheating site...........Trump to donate some porn stars perhaps

[smirkymonkey]

6. Ugh! Let's just hope they don't reproduce.

That's all we need.

[LiberalFighter]

19. And they drive each other crazy?

With North Carolina's May 6 <2014> primary near, Justice for All NC began flexing its political muscle last week, when it started airing attack ads saying Supreme Court Associate Justice Robin Hudson, a registered Democrat, "sides with child predators" ...

A strident Tea Party leader, Florida native Jeff Hyde .. is listed as one of two co-directors of Justice for All NC ...

... Hyde's bid for local GOP chair was derailed in part over controversy stemming from reports that Hyde's close political associate Barrett Riddleberger had been convicted of taking indecent liberties with a minor in 1995 ...

9. Yeah, well, how much honesty do you find on a typical dating site anyway...

Trumplodytes should have a ball.

22. My 75 year old husband--from whom I recently separated--

Signed up for match.com a month after we separated. I looked up his profile and there are four (4) lies in the information he's listed.

Caveat emptor!

Americans who weren't Republicans.

You can't get pregnant from being urinated on.
