Agreed. 100%. But 30? With all the confirmed **** we know about him? He literally talks about committing sexual assault because he can get away with it. Everything about him screams rapist. He checks all the markers. This dude is guilty af, and he has never worried about losing anything because he believes he can get away with anything because of money. He literally asked one of his victims after she pushed him away, "How much," to let him continue. This is a man who wants to prove he can buy anything, and, if he can't, he can take it because it is his right.

Carroll wrote that they had met by chance in the department store, where he recognized her as "that advice lady", and that Trump had asked her to advise him on a present for "a girl". Trump took her to the lingerie section, where no one was around. Trump asked her to try on a piece of lingerie and took her to a dressing room; there he pushed her against a wall, causing her to hit her head "quite badly"; then he allegedly forcibly kissed her. Carroll then said, "he ... pulls down my tights ... forcing his fingers around my private area, thrusts his penis halfway—or completely, I'm not certain—inside me". After a struggle, she said she escaped from the dressing room and left the store. She said the incident lasted for no more than three minutes.
Carroll wrote that Bergdorf Goodman no longer had security tapes from that period and that she did not report the incident to the police, but that also she had told two friends of hers. One told Carroll she had been raped and to make a police report. The other told Carroll, "Tell no one. Forget it! He has 200 lawyers. He'll bury you." Carroll's friends confirmed those conversations to New York.
Trump has given multiple responses, including: "she's not my type" and also saying he never met her. However, in her story, Carroll had provided a photograph of her meeting Trump in 1987, along with Carroll's then-husband John Johnson and Trump's then-wife Ivana.
The two friends Carroll had confided in was revealed by the New York Times to be writer Lisa Birnbach and news anchor Carol Martin, when they and Carroll appeared on the podcast of the New York Times taped on June 26, 2019, which narrated the following events: Carroll had remained silent for so long because she partially blamed herself for the incident, though she eventually stopped blaming herself. Carroll refused to say she was "raped", instead choosing to describe it thus: "My word is fight. My word is not the victim word ... Something has not been done to me. I fought."
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."

for the amount of time talked about Epstien and his closeness to Clinton
it's weird how those same never talked about how trump was just as close
walsh said it right today: trump doesn't have the courage to go talk about allegations like Joe did today

Rape is falsely reported at the same rate as other felonies. 2%-8% Trump lies constantly about almost everything. It is something to watch. Even his supporters are like, "Yeah, he's a liar, but at least we know he's a liar." But you believe him over 30 or so other people?
False accusations happen, and they suck. I'm sorry if your friend was innocent. That is terrible. That is something that happens, but nowhere near as frequently as rape/sexual assault. There is a sexual assault ever minute and a half or so. Think about that. How many people accused of 1 have been innocent? A few. How many accused of 30 have been innocent? I can't think of any.
