In 2016, “Jane Doe” filed a lawsuit against Trump alleging a “savage sexual attack” in 1994, when she was 13, in which he tied her to a bed at Epstein’s house & raped her. She pulled the lawsuit after getting threatened, but why aren't we talking about it? https://t.co/vDIcX0XiqN— Laura Bassett (@LEBassett) July 11, 2019
As Bassett reminds us in the linked article,
In total, and not counting the young Jane Doe who rescinded her lawsuit, more than 20 women have accused Trump of sexual misconduct so far, and many of them have produced witnesses and corroborators. Five have produced at least two witnesses. He denies all of the allegations, but his own recorded statements suggest he does regularly engage in this pattern of behavior.
And how quickly we are numbed to the horrors perpetrated by this monster:
Hey, remember three weeks ago, when the president was accused of rape?https://t.co/IluEcMJvqs— Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) July 13, 2019
There's a pervasive rot in this country that starts with The Monster and his party of predators, enablers, liars, hypocrites, bigots, ciphers and traitors. The rot -- such as the normalization of aberrant, criminal behavior -- will be a hallmark of these times and this regime, and will be forever associated with our country no matter how much time lapses after these pigs are gone.
