People Reporter Writes about Sexual Assualt by Trump

So first, here is the story.

The Trump team has already issued a denial and I'm sure they will discount the story but magazines like People and Cosmopolitan have been expanding their political coverage and actually have a large readership, especially among the demographic that is killing Trump. I don't see how he survives this string of revelations.

@McGentrix,
If you read the story, you will see the answer. The reporter came forward after the Access Hollywood story where Trump is bragging about doing exactly what he did to her.

PS. Bill Clinton's extramarital stories have been extensively covered.

Bill put jizzum on an adult woman's dress, with her consent. He didn't assault her.

Joke:

Gay Jewish guy calls his mother.
Son: "Mom! I've got some news! I'm getting married! To a woman!"
Mom: "At last! Thank God! I'll be a grandmother after all! Is she Jewish?"
Son: "Yes, and she's got her own company!"
Mom: "Even better! What's her name?"
Son: "Monica."
Mom: "Monica what?"
Son: "Lewinsky."
(pause)
Mom: "What happened to that nice black boy you were dating?"

I sure hope you guys have the same lack of caring about this as you do about Bill and Hillary's dalliances.

No comparison.

@McGentrix,
Regardless of your opinion of the quality of the allegation, "women's magazines" are increasingly political and they reach a part of the population that votes but is routinely ignored. Katy Tur, the NBC reporter that Trump has hit at several times calling her "little Katy" and whipping up the crowd against her to the point that the Secret Service offered her a protective escort from one event did an interview with Marie Claire. These magazines are reaching women and showing them first person accounts of Trump's behavior towards women. Women will prevent Trump from becoming President - he is losing their vote by 33 percentage points! I don't know how he can continue to ignore it, but he does.

Let's see, I'm a fledgling reporter for a Fluff piece magazine and I want to hit the big time. I'm interviewing one of the richest man in America and arguably one of the most influential and Powerful businessmen in the world and he hits on me during an interview regarding the first year anniversary of his marriage... And I don't make that the story. Now, everybody who believes this woman stand on their head!

What about the quality of the defence?

Quote:
Meanwhile, his (Trump's) campaign presented a British man who disputed the account of Ms Leeds, now 74. She alleged that when she was 38, Mr Trump groped her on a flight to New York, acting "like an octopus".

The New York Post reported that Anthony Gilberthorpe contacted Mr Trump's campaign to counter the claim. In an interview with the paper he said: "I was there, I was in a position to know that what she said was wrong, wrong, wrong."

Mr Gilberthorpe made headlines in 2014 when he alleged that he had provided underage boys to British politicians for sex parties.

It is also important to note Trump claimed all he did was talk that he didn't actually do anything. These women coming forward now have said Trump did exactly what he claimed to have done in the videos and the Howard Stern show, that it wasn't all talk like he claimed Sunday night.

The following explains it much better than I can. Read the whole thing it takes every one of the justifications/excuses or defenses for the inexcusable pattern of behavior of Trump's and dismantles them.

What did you take from that? I got it as a very in-your-face satire to try to convey the harshness of sexual harassment/assault.

@snood,
Yup.

I'm working out why my initial reaction was what it was. It'll be good for a couple of dozen lengths in the pool.

It's just another arm of the Vast Left Wing Conspiracy to keep Trump out of office.

@McGentrix,
Kind of like this one:

On the Trail: The Woman Leading GOP Efforts to Discredit Hillary

Quote:
Huddled in their Virginia office, Alex Angel and her colleagues at America Rising have one main mission: Take down the Iron Lady of American politics. Six “watchers,” as Angel calls them, communicate over Slack to avoid talking over a dozen monitors in a windowless war room. Everything is fair game. Some transcribe speeches. Others watch for hypocrisy. A few just track Hillary Clinton’s facial expressions – did she blink too often, or look smug? Could those images make for a good Gif?
