I just saw these threads and thought I'd get you point on them Pwale.

Trump rape case

That one is about Trump going to court over raping a child.... I never heard that at all. Is this some new smear campaign or is it real?

Trump supporters smearing women

That one is about how people are smearing women who are now coming forward. This can be said about Bill Cosby's rape victims, why not come sooner but everyone has their reasons and it ended up being proven that Cosby did do that stuff. >.>

Right. Then there's this case.

This story hasn't got a lot of coverage because it's unverifiable. I mean, it's a good story for any organization that wants headlines so you'd think they'd print it, right? Except if they did print much about this story and it turned out the allegations are false they could be sued, since it is the media's job to vet and confirm information before they publish it. Most newspapers or networks would want to talk to the victim or her lawyer at least. But until recently that hasn't been an option.

The other reason is, quite frankly, that a lot of journalists probably don't believe this woman.

But that might change, as more women come forward about Trump assaulting them. If it becomes established that Trump has a history of predatory behavior, combined with the fact that he has a history with Jeffrey Epstein, the media that has largely ignored this case might take another look.

So in 2002 Trump said this about Jeffrey Epstein:

"I've known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,'' Trump booms from a speakerphone. "He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it — Jeffrey enjoys his social life."


Who is Jeffrey Epstein, you ask?

You can jump straight down to "Solicitation of prostitution"

Yup. He's a billionaire who raped women and sold young girls to rich famous men and then filmed it to blackmail them later.

So. Yes, this story is real, though I don't know if the allegations are real. There's going to be a court case after the election.

There were rumors about Bill Clinton there, too.

Literally any two other people.

Good news is, next election I'm old enough to write myself in and then at least there will be someone I can vote for without compromising my morals.

There are benefits to getting older.

Wow that is sick. I can't wait for it to go to trial to find out what is what. But my god that Epstein is one horrible sick person. .... And the fact Trump likes him, knows him and thinks so good of him, is rather worrysome and frightening.

I mean, he mentioned young women in that 2002 quote. HE CLEARLY KNEW AND DID NOTHING. Hardly surprising, knowing Trump, but it's still something that should be scrutinized.

Ya but with how things are going, he's still in the run when you would think he'd be tossed out of the election, but no idea how with all he's said and done he can still be allowed to run. I think that part of the election process is a bit messed up.

(throws up hands in the air)

I don't even know anymore. I just don't. This is such a clusterfuck.

This analysis is a great way to catch up on what happened over the last few days. And there's been so much crazy, this is only a fraction of it. But it includes Trump dismantling his teleprompter and saying they should do a drug test before the next presidential debate.

When I first heard about Trump running for president, I thought it was a joke. I have no idea who would vote for someone who seems to openly attack so many different types of people and I was really surprised he seemed to be winning before.
