The only thing I know for sure is we'll never know the truth.
Maybe if she has a history of this and he has no other accusers or visa versa we may be able to draw some sensible inferences. I mention this because you strike me from your posts here as a person who doesn't easily admit to the evident. You seem, for example, to be unable to infer the obvious fact that Trump is a criminal.

Dredging shit up from the fucking 90s, for what purpose? Who benefits from a 78 year old man being outed as a guy who in his younger years was an ass? I am just at a loss... I wonder how many people she stepped on on her way up the ladder who felt as if they were abused... After 30 years is there any real reason to tell the world that some guy grabbed her ass?

If it happened, does it matter when it happened?

Mainstream reporter Tom Brokaw has been accused of sexual misconduct by fellow reporter Linda Vester. Brokaw denies the allegation stating that the two only met twice at her request because she wanted career advice from him. Too many men in power have felt entitled to such behavior so I'll be curious to see how this one turns out.

Why does that headline reference a 2nd woman and then say nothing about a second woman in the article?

Just substitute unproven for evident and you're spot on.

No, I think what I am referring to is refusal to admit to a preponderance of evidence that exceeds reasonable doubt. In short I find you consistently dismissive of the evident to the extent I have judged your dcapacity to infer guilt to be unreasonable rather than reasonable. It is fou people with traits like yours that we have sayings like, “If it walks like a duck.........”. You often appear to be dismissive even of duck DNA.

I am sure there is nothing you did in your past that you wish you hadn't done. I still haven't heard a single thing this does to help anyone.

How would you hear about someone in the present or future who did NOT get abused? As it is, only a small percentages of abuses are heard of, that too by only a few if at all

But in Greenman's defense, if she hasn't identified herself and her claim not public information, she may actually not even exist. ;)
Yup let's wait until all the evidence is in. Hillary though, need to lock her up. You'd have to be brain dead to think she's innocent.

Besides the goods and services many of his contractors did for him who weren't paid? Beside the money he took from his charity to pay off politicians and to pay for his golf course tournaments? Besides the money he stole from people who signed up for his scam university?

Or did you actually mean what has he done that was criminal because I kept my response limited to the word you used.

Besides those things, probably nothing, he is after all the role model for the right.

On this scale? Nope.

So your theory is after some arbitrary passage of time victims should just keep quiet because of your inability to understand why it may help them for thier story to be heard.

I was thinking more along the lines that he's a partner to the Russian Mafia and should be tried in court as a traitor.

If that's what you think I meant then you truly are too fucking stupid to be part of this conversation and you probably should be in the kitchen cooking and not fucking up a conversation.
Is that better?
