Donald Trump's alleged 'sexual proclivities' graphically detailed in new Epstein documents

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/donald-trump-jeffrey-epstein-documents-b2475210.html

Graphic details about Donald Trump’s alleged “sexual proclivities” have emerged in the latest round of court documents containing details of late paedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s associates.

The new documents contain “incendiary claims” about the former president, including accusations that he had sexual relations with “many girls”, made by one of Epstein’s alleged victims, Sarah Ransome.

Mr Trump’s name has appeared a handful of times previously in the documents and, while not accusing him of wrongdoing, appears to illustrate the good relationship he had with the disgraced financier.

In the newly unsealed documents, Ms Ransome testified that her unnamed friend “was one of the many girls that had sexual relations with Donald Trump” – including at Epstein’s New York townhouse.

The Biden-Harris campaign needs to DRIVE THAT POINT HOME in a massive ad blitz as if their lives depended on it.

Because - guess what: They probably do.

Biden-Harris should be shouting this at every interview, every speaking engagement. And making the point that his "proclivities" included minor children. Mention the age of the girl, how much he paid her (if known), and what he did to make her stay quiet (besides money). I'd lay odds there were threats against her and her family. You know trump couldn't resist being the sadist in this case.

And LOSE the word "proclivities"... Dumb it down for the anti-intellectuals out there. Call it "Trumps need or habit" or some other synonym should a better one be available. Proclivities is way too big a word for them to understand. It'll just go over there head. To get through to them, we have to think and talk at a 3rd grade level.

Repugs are already trying to re-frame the Epstein scandal as basically another "Clinton scandal" - because that's how they are: shameless.

Never mind that it was Dubya's U.S. Attorney - that toadie Alex Acosta - who deep-sixed the Epstein FBI investigation, later becoming Trump's Labor Secretary (!).

If the Biden-Harris campaign refuses to whip up a serious ad blitz on PeDONphile Trump - AND QUICKLY - the Repugs could very well succeed in turning the tables on what should be a career-pulverizing event for Cheeto.

And you know if these incidents occurred on Epstein's property, there's video of it somewhere.

Give it another week or two for the UK press to make the story so sleazy and tittilating that US press won’t be able to ignore it.

Hopefully…

E. Jean and Stormy and undoubtedly were very traumatized by what happened. Plus, I believe they (at least one) have been subjected to threats and intimidation.

This monster has been pulling this crap for many years and he knows how to shut women up most of the time. God only knows how many victims there are. I wouldn't be surprised if there are a lot of very young girls, as they would be less likely to come after him and he knows that.

seems to embarrass him. Nor does it seem to bother his friends.

I wish they would look closer at Trump's activities at the Playboy mansion. That place was just awful.

it's the idiot, so called evangelicals who give him money and praise that I can't understand.

God sent you the access hollywood tape, 4 years of his garbage presidency, a pandemic he could not handle and he encouraged you to take drano straight, a insurrection to show how cruel he really is and just because he gave you 3 soulless liars for judges you are ok with him.

They are failing in their basic responsibility as news organizations.

Failing bigly.

Dangerously.
