    Here is the issue. Its two fold

    Actual things that happened
    False claims years later.

    Then you have people like me that say if you are sexually assaulted REPORT IT right away... Then i get told i hate women... Makes no sense now does it..

    She came forward to a paper.. Not the police.. Why she would think the would WP would come forward against a Black D is beyond me but this would not have been as issue if she reported it at the time ( now i will say i hate victims or something)

    I don't care who the person is, if someone sits on a story for 15 years then I'm not entirely believing it, especially if there's no proof. But democrats have made their position on these matters widely and loudly known, so I fully expect them to be consistent and kick this guy to the curb.

    The short answer? When the coming alliance of the Russians, the Chinese, and the EU (lead by Germany) finally push us all the way into the dark corner of insanity that we HAVE MADE FOR OURSELVES! :psychoitc:

    Maybe it's because, unlike the fawning yellow journalism tabloid media that Trumpsters are used to, the Post reports news.

    Pushing us into insanity?

    There isn't going to be a formal alliance between Russia and China, but there will be increasing economic interdependancy.

    As for the EU, and the north American continent, the US refusal to lead the free world is driving them towards the people who will count in the future, even as the US removes itself from consideration on that point.

    Donald Trump's record of bad management and poor leadership is damaging us in ways we will be paying for for a long time.

    The fact taht the United States cannot be trusted as a reliable ally doesn't help either.

    Stories like this is why we sane folks questioned the whole "believe all women" movement and we got **** on for using logic and not trying to be "woke".

    "Fawning yellow journalism tabloid media that Trumpsters are used to"...?! Oh, this is a GUT-BUSTER! What the hell do you think the hyperliberal, America-hating, Leftist "news" organs, like MSNBC, CBS, NBC, and ABC are?! :roflol:

    And if you think the Washington Post is a 'right-wing' newspaper by any stretch of the imagination, you are in dire need of HELP....

    I never even hinted that the Post was rigth wing.

    You made that up.

    As for right wingers taking their tabloid fake media at face value, any casual look thought any of the threads on this forum every single day make my point quite nicely.

    Trump has been trying to drain the swamp, while up to his ass in alligators.

    And so you postulate that a rag like the Washington Post is a "reactionary right" news organ?! Honestly, you seem to know as little about propaganda generation in the United States as you do about the forthcoming alliance of Russia, China, and the EU.... But, if you're young enough (and I suspect you are), you'll live to see it... and ENDURE it.... :twisted:

    The part I find most disturbing is that the DNC approached the Washington Post about the story over a year ago and the publisher spent months researching the details before deciding not to print the story.

    My main question is, why the F doesn't that happen before they release stories about Republicans?

    What a ridiculous claim!

    Trump is the essence of corruption and dissipation. He has been all his life!

    This is the most flagrantly corrupt President since the Guilded Age!

    Drain the swamp! What a joke!

    Yup. Believe women. Men aren't entitled to the presumption of innocence. We don't need any evidence/proof.

    Justin Fairfax is guilty and he must resign his position as Lt. Governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

    Kangaroo court adjourned...
