      If you want to bring Joe into this, his own daughter says he showered with her at an old age… So I would care more about an actual accusation as opposed to a random lawsuit in believing biden is worse on this one.

          There have been accusations, but the biden accusations seem a hell of a lot more credible.

            I tried to look up these accusations from Biden’s daughter but with no success. Do you have any links? Also, if you’re claim that these accusations do exist is true, what makes it more credible to you? How is one woman’s word any less credible than another’s?

              They are more credible because they were in his daughters diary which people were never supposed to see. Here is a show talking about it if you wish. Also the other lady that he allegedly raped had her mother call Larry King live waaaay back then talking about it. The Trump ones just seem like women wanting attention, and the lady that got the judgement against him is legit crazy.

                I appreciate the follow up link, I will be looking out for more info on that. However, I think you are biased when it comes hearing and believing accusations about sexual abuse from women. Unfortunately for both the accusations against Trump and Biden, we have little more than the women’s words, but you choose to find one more credible than the other because “the Trump ones seem like women wanting attention”. It is sentiments such as those that will continue to allow sexual abusers get away with their actions.

                  No, the accusation about Biden was not intended to be known and the other one was not disclosed till years later and was collaborated by a video. The accusations about trump seem to be about the benefit of the accusers and by a crazy person. These are completely different types of accusations, you pretending like they are the same is the part that is biased.

              Oh yeah, making a bad joke is the same as showering with your daughter… I literally have never showered one time with any of my children because I am not a creep. Politics turn you guys into defenders of probable pedos, hell his son calls him “Pedo Peter”.

                So all of the allegations extending back to the early 90’s about Trump mean absolutely nothing?

                Walking into dressing rooms of 15/16 year old girls. The decades of “bad jokes” of his daughters. Decades if friendship with a known pedo/human trafficker. This doesn’t show his overall character?

                I’m not saying Biden didn’t do it but seriously? Are you unable to comprehend the shitshow that is Donald J Trump?

                Do you think the 34 convictions are a bunch if bullshit? Is he your retribution? Arebyou following a false prophet? I would say yes…

                  Donald trump has been one of the most famous people in the world since at least the 90s so they dont mean nothing, but they require scrutiny. And again we are doing a comparison between two people where joe is objectively the one you would want to watch out for. His own son calls him “Pedo Peter” and his daughter implies he is a pedo, I really dont know why you guys are defending him.

                  Do you think the 34 convictions are a bunch if bullshit?

                  Yes, obviously since I am paying attention.

            Fuck that “BoTh SiDeS” whining. I said no such thing. However, Bill Clinton is almost as connected to Epstein as Trump, and that’s just a matter of public record. How is it that everyone seems to forget that he stuck it in a Whitehouse Intern? Whatever else Bill Clinton is, he is a slime ball, but he is still in the bubble of people protected by the Democratic party. There are political consequences to that, whether you want to accept it or not.

            You want to offer an alternative theory about why the press and Democrats aren’t all over this story? They can’t seem to campaign on anything but how truly shitty Trump is, but they ignore this? Make it make sense.

                A weapon to destroy Trump is lying on the table TODAY and it isn’t being picked up because of that old news. That is why it’s relevant TODAY. Deride it as a conspiracy theory if you want, but it’s not the first time Bill Clinton’s dick has saved Trump in an election.

              I feel so bad for Monica Lewinsky and for us as a nation. She was so young, naive, optimistic, and driven. An old man with power took advantage of all of that and ended up ruining her career for a stupid blowie. Granted, she fucked up by telling her friend, but once again, young and naive.

              In the past decade or so, she’s been an incredible speaker and activist and it makes me sadly wonder how different our country would be if she’d stayed in politics. She’s one of those people who I’d love to meet but would be too scared to then learn something disappointing about her.

            I wish. Unlike the Republicans (and apparently a lot of Democrats) I think that there should be consequences for rapists without regard for what party they belong to.

    Facing increased scrutiny for raping children is appropriate. Also appropriate , facing 15 years in prison for raping children. Of course unless it was an official act by the president.

      Technically, if he obstructed the case while president by ordering his DOJ to drop it or obviscate it, it could be considered an official act.

    Renewed scrutiny huh?

    I want to know why the scrutiny needed to be renewed. Why did scrutiny diminish under these kinds of allegations?

    I can see from the comments something about this being affected by him becoming president, and I’m left here thinking, shouldn’t the FBI/CIA/enforcement agencies, be able to operate without the president getting all up in their business?

    That’s just sad, honestly. I won’t assume Trump is guilty until he is convicted of the crime, but there should be nothing that can prevent law enforcement from fully investigating what happened and providing justice for that girl.

    The fact that this is a headline at all is pretty dark.
