That's great and all, but wholly outside of THIS thread where you made the title about Trump being associated with Epstein. Nothing to do with his 27 well aged accusers. How about having a thread, or putting it in the Trump thread, or wherever all those other posts are, since THERE it would be relevant. In this thread, simply clarify where Trump and Epstein are buddies. Because, JG and I have pointed out repeatedly how Trump crossed paths minimal times and was not friends with Epstein, whereas others (most notably Clinton) were friends with Epstein and seen with him on many occasions. If you want to have a President get mud slung on him for association with Epstein, it's not Trump but Clinton. Odd how you hold to the thread title in without a means to support it, and ignore the facts.
Apologies, it is changed. I always admitted and was stunned by the connection to Bill Clinton (YES INVESTIGATE HIM FOR THAT, not some consensual blowjob from a bimbo he hired after she decided to regret the blowjob months later after the whole nation learned what a dirty girl she was)...... But hey, R's wanted to impeach Bill for consensual sex.
The consensual part should be the important part, not just that it was a sex act. It appears some of DJT's interactees were not fully willing participants
in their words and again this is why we have a statue of limitations and you have to come forward with such serious charges in time. Because by not doing so, you're essentially either letting a violent sexual predator continue to rampage the community, or they never were one and it wasn't rape (and if you are UNSURE please, talk it out with counselors; it's OK to not know) but I think the non-consensual nature of the alleged acts (which may have never happened in all actuality, though I don't buy into that line of thinking) should be relevant and/or alarming to the average individual. I know how much flack the Catholic Church caught a few decades back, but I guess if the Catholic Church was the US President we'd let it go?
And perhaps at the very least if "boys will be boys" and "I was still a young, very naive, very immature 60 year old man" is going to take precedence - then maybe not full-on victim blaming, but perhaps talk to the women in question and women in the community about the importance of immediately reporting serious crime such as rape and not waiting until the last minute or until it's too late? Other people may be at stake. Or you might just be lying, or not sure if you consented if you felt coerced or scared, etc. It's OK to not know. It's not OK to wait until it's no longer a punishable offense and then tell the whole world, mostly because of all the other people who deserved a heads up. Just saying. And if, in the moment, you're unwilling to seek help or anonymously file a report to at least have a record, you're essentially letting that behavior continue and you're part of the problem. It sucks, I know, and it takes will power of steel to talk about being abused; it is not easy for anyone. But more lives than your own are at stake here. Just my 2c, not trying to victim blame whatsoever.
