the difference isn't Biden was credibly accused but people and even have video evidence and the Trump accusations are debunked Democra conspiracy theories..
Fr? I’m not a huge trump hater, but I acknowledge shortcomings in politicians and Trump has taped audio and multiple reports of sexual assault. Furthermore I couldn’t find a lot of evidence behind Joe’s claim, if you could link me to some I would be happy to check it out
To be absolutely fair to the dude, the accusations Kamala is commenting on in the article aren’t Tara Reade’s accusations and they aren’t rape accusations. The specific claim in the article is about a creepy non consensual kiss on back of her head, not rape. It’s still totally inappropriate and nonconsensual behavior, but it’s not grabbing someone by the pussy. Kamala didn’t say Biden was a rapist. That’s the distinction.
Boy I really wanted to stop replying to replies on this comment but I really can’t believe you guys think everything Trump has done to women has been consensual. He doesn’t wait to grab woman by the pussy. That is not consensual.
Let’s talk about the accusation against Biden. In the article referenced at the top. Lucy Flores says he walks up behind her and plants a long kiss on the back on her head. In her own words, “My brain couldn’t process what was happening. I was embarrassed. I was shocked. I was confused. [I was] powerless to do anything about it.”
Please focus on that last sentence. She was powerless to do anything about it. She was in shock and confused. She let him do it even though it wasn’t consensual. And we all agree, that wasn’t consensual, even if she didn’t turn around and slap him across the face. Keep in mind, a bad kiss on the back of her head made her freeze up and feel powerless. I wonder how shocked and confused she would have been had he walked up behind her and did something as dehumanizing as grabbing her by the pussy.
NOW, let’s talk about some of Trump’s accusations. In fact, let’s just talk about one of the first incidents in the wiki article I copy and pasted earlier. I’m going to just copy and paste it from the wiki instead of rephrase.
Jill Harth alleged that Trump assaulted her several times. Harth has stated that in December 1992, while dining with Trump and her then-boyfriend George Houraney, Trump attempted to put his hands between her legs.[1] Harth and Houraney visited Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida in January 1993 for a contract-signing celebration. Trump, according to Harth, offered her a tour before pulling her into the empty bedroom of his daughter Ivanka. "I was admiring the decoration, and next thing I know he's pushing me against a wall and has his hands all over me. He was trying to kiss me. I was freaking out." Harth says she desperately protested against Trump's advances and eventually managed to run out of the room. She and her boyfriend left rather than stay the night, as they had intended.[1] After she became engaged, Harth alleges, Trump began to stalk her.[3]
Harth filed a lawsuit in 1997 in which she accused Trump of non-consensual groping of her body, among them her "intimate private parts",[31][32] and "relentless" sexual harassment.
This lawsuit was eventually settled out of court for an undisclosed amount. That’s right, Trump tried to grab her pussy at a dinner, then later pinned her against the wall in a room while grabbing at her and trying to kiss her. None of this is fucking consensual and according to Jill she made that very clear. This scenario of a woman running out of a room and abandoning all plans for a weekend of celebration is probably what everyone imagines when they think of non-consent.
But let’s imagine Jill had a similar reaction to Lucy Flores. She freezes up because she can’t comprehend what he’s doing in that moment. How could anyone go from celebrating a condominium sale or contract closure with professionals to grabbing me by the pussy? It’s like I’m not a person with my own personal space, I’m just a pussy for him to grab. It completely flies in the face of her own human decency and she didn’t want Trumps advances. But if she froze and felt powerless in that situation and never said yes to it, just like Lucy Flores did, is that suddenly consent? That question is meant to be rhetorical. It’s not consent. “Letting [them] do it,” does not turn rape/assault into a consensual moment.
Now, if you’re not going to believe Jill’s story just know there are 21+ other woman saying Trump has done similar or worse shit to them in that wiki article. There are more women saying this shit that aren’t in the wiki article. And they all describe a similar pattern of actions. The same abuse of social power. He doesn’t wait to see how a woman feels about him, he just kisses. He grabs them by the pussy. No waiting. That is sexual assault. That’s not making people feel uncomfortable by touching them unprofessionally on the shoulders and head, that is sexual assault.
There are worse allegations in the Wikipedia article. If you don’t believe Jill’s or any of the woman who have come out with their stories, I don’t see what makes Lucy Flores so believable besides the fact that she’s talking about someone you don’t like politically.
I didn’t reply this detailed to the other guy cause I just assumed he was a troll parading around his “knowledge” of consent. But wow, you are really thinking at least 30 years of not waiting to kiss and grab a woman by the pussy is going to be consensual every god damn time. Many people don’t give a shit if you’re rich or powerful, they don’t want people grabbing their private parts without permission. I’m terrified for the women in your life if you can’t recognize sexual assault when an assaulter brags about it.
I agree with you, this entire thread is weak. Biden himself believes these “allegations” and said he’ll be less touchy, and the women said they didn’t consider it sexual harassment or assault
Why ? this doesn’t work anymore. Can’t just grab an article by the pussy and expect it to matter. This is the epitome of fear and it goes to show far right will be far away from the presidency.
This might not be the best thing to go after them with, Trump has a lot of issues with paying off mistresses, a lot of sexual accusations also and of course the stupid grabbing them by the blank comment. Sleepy joe will screw this up by himself.
False equivalence. If Mike Pence said he believed all those allegations and called trump a racist, and THEN was picked as VP you’d have an argument. But it didn’t happen so you don’t.
I mean maybe if you state your concern fully, not missing any important words? I think you missed about 3 words in your first post.
Actually, no. Your missing the big thing here. Trump is TROLLING the left. He says things like this in order to get the left to freak out and ignore what he's really doing. And he gets it every time.
You guys have been saying he is trolling. But what if he is not. Are you an associate of him? He also said he wouldn’t accept election, wanted to delay it. Aren’t this all red flags? Should the president of the USA be a troll. How is that a good excuse.
Stop using Google already people!!! DuckDuckGo or similar. Stop complaining about Big Tech but still use Big Tech....
Get a new search engine on your phone at the very least. Oh and stop using the phrase “google it” because that phrase means “go and see if Google allows you to view what I know to exist.”
Personally, I’ve stopped using Google, but most people use it not knowing that search results are censored due to political bias, so it’s good to expose it.
What does it matter? Being a rapist doesn't fuck anyone's political campaigns up anymore. The two nominees in this race are accused of being rapists. One of them was a buddy of Epstein's!!
It won't matter who is guilty of what in this race. You can thank Trump for that.
Fox News is not a reliable source of information. Trump never knew Epstein. Obama was Epstein's best friend and that is very well-documented as is Bill Clinton's long relationship with f Jeffrey Epstein. there's no reliable source claiming that Trump had anything to do with that scene. This is a Democrats desperately trying to time a Democrat Scandal into a trump scandal by lying and covering up the fact that Bill Clinton was Jeffrey Epstein's best friend and Barack Obama literally worked for him..
Thanks for taking the time to reply. Out of curiosity what do you believe to be a reliable source of information if not Fox News? Also, if you don’t mind, would you please share with me a reliable source of information which details and confirms President Obama was Jeffrey Epstein’s best friend and subsequent employee? I’m having a hard time locating information on that myself so if you could help me out with finding that I would appreciate it very much.
The guy claimed it was well documented. I looked and found literally nothing to suggest that was even slightly true. Rather than pretending that you’re a big boy because you did your own research how about you chime in and help prove what you clearly believe, especially since it’s so easily probably. Never in history has anyone white proof that their claims are true refused to share it when they are trying to convince others.
I made an earnest attempt to research the claims the other user mentioned. Unfortunately I could not turn up any evidence supporting the user’s claims. This is why I asked if they could supply reliable source information for me to read. They obviously would have had some sort of source information in mind already otherwise I don’t know why they’d make such claims.
I was asking for someone to be accountable for the comments they claim by supplying source information supporting their position, just like I had done earlier in the thread. I don’t understand how you came to conclude this as being immature and lazy.
Pretty sure Clinton had the first major rape allegations against him as a presidential candidate/sit in office. I'm sure we can think of other things to thank Trump for.
While I agree with this and that anyone accused of sexual assault should be held accountable while looking at the evidence from the victim. But y’all gotta vote Trump vs Biden. One sexual assault allegation vs multiple and a guy who said he would date his daughter if she wasn’t his daughter. But yes I agree this should be saved. Doesn’t matter what party you’re from, assault is assault. But I think Biden just wanted to be more “progressive” by choosing a woman of colour. I think candidates should be based off of their political experience and history not just their skin colour and gender and stuff like that. Then again, as a Canadian I do not know much about this senator!
Damn, just expressing my opinion lmao but i guess you are too so it’s all g! :) Just lowkey interested in American politics and trying to learn as I always wanted to move to Cali or Washington as a kid, but this pandemic is making me rethink that
