He sexually assaulted you. Call it what it is.
- Call it what it is.
  Rape

Plus he rapes. So. It’s a rich tapestry of evil.

Wish they’d interviewed her months ago.
All the MAGgots are going to question the “timing“ of this.
- They'd say the same thing if they interviewed her 3 years ago.
  
  But at least early voting wouldn't have started and maybe they could have shaved off a few people who have now already voted for Trump.
  Edit: Sorry. Reading back, this was more callous than I meant it to sound. I was just speaking in the abstract and did not make that at all clear. She has the right to come forward whenever she feels ready. Or never if she never felt ready.
- It won't make a different for those dickheads, they've already made it clear they're more than comfortable supporting a rapist.
  Hopefully a few of the more sane ones will take this on board though.
- Unfortunately that's not as bad as being "a socialist" in their eyes.
- The timing is suspicious. Tho I'm not a MAGA.
  
  What are you then¿?

This is IMPOSSIBLE because Trump and Epstein WERENT friends even though there's Video and Interview Footage of them being the Bestest of Friends until Jeffrey Epstein bought a Bigger Mansion then Trump!
- Epstein likes to tell people that he’s a loner, a man who’s never touched alcohol or drugs, and one whose nightlife is far from energetic. And yet if you talk to Donald Trump, a different Epstein emerges. “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.”

Evangelists..it's what God wanted. God wanted Trump to rape you so as to bring pleasure to an otherwise depressed and sad person. Luckily you can along as a usable thing for him to feel better. Anyway, this is great. He will need some more of you next Wednesday at 7pm so be available. Hey Man! Amen! And so is the word of the book of Trump and his trumpets.
- Well, uh, the bible isn't really that opposed to rape. You just have to pay the family of the woman the bride price. As long as you've got the money, it's all good.
  And no, that's not a joke. An unmarried man that rapes an unmarried woman has essentially committed a civil infraction under the book of the law. OTOH, a woman that commits adultery should be stoned to death, and a man that rapes a married woman is also put to death. Because according to the bible, women are property.
  
  At Costco 12 A.D. "hello, I would like there two women in my cart"...."Sir this one, did you get it from the unmarried isle?"...."yes. That one is for humpin. The other looks good for chores around the house, she's from the married isle" ...."just remember, thou shalt not hump from the married isle!"...."understoodeth!"

I believe that brings the number of women to 27.

- People don't have to come out about their sexual assault on your or anyone else's schedule.
  It's something a lot of victims find very, very difficult to talk about.
  Also, suggesting that the DNC somehow was forcing her to not tell her story since 2016 is just irrational.

What was she doing hanging out with these people in the first place? Little sympathy.
- You're a model in 1993. In order brush elbows with the elite, make connections and continue finding work you are given an invite by your modelling agency. You attend because this can only be good for your career.
  You get sexually harrassed.
  You didn't ask for this. You're trying to make a living. Titans of the industry see you as a bag of meat to toss around and abuse.
  "You were asking for it."
  
  You apparently can't win if you're a woman around such men. If you come forward when a powerful man sexually assaults you right away, you're gold-digging and he uses his high-paid lawyers to shut you down.
  If you come forward when a powerful man sexually assaults you later when he can't do that, why did you wait so long?!?!
  
  She was dating Epstein at the time. Poor judgement on her part, but it wasn't a long relationship, so maybe she got the fuck out of there as soon as possible.
  Doesn't excuse Trump fondlibg her, obviously with Epstein's approval, and maybe at his invitation.
  Horrible people. Good for her speaking out.
  
  Yeah,
  A woman at a party hoping to bag a dying rich husband retains the right not to be groped/assaulted or raped.
  I actually wouldn't be surprised if the modeling industry as a whole was proved to be a sex abuse conspiracy from the get go. Like create this image in the media of beautiful women becoming glamorous successful models that marry dying billionaires, tell them that they have to network at fancy parties where the industry moguls are, convince them to ingratiate themselves to the moguls however they can....
- Typical victim blaming behaviour.
  This is a shitty take, and you should feel bad.
  "My clothes are not my consent" "My looks are not my consent" "My age is not my consent"
- Terrible take
- geeeezus.
- Wtf!?! she was probably a sex trafficking victim
- See @FlyingSquid, this is victim blaming.
