Former President Donald J. Trump used his social-media website on Wednesday to amplify a crude remark about Vice President Kamala Harris that suggested Ms. Harris traded sexual favors to help her political career.
The post, by another user on Truth Social, was an image of Ms. Harris and Hillary Clinton, Mr. Trumps opponent in 2016. The text read: Funny how blowjobs impacted both their careers differently
The remark was a reference to Mrs. Clintons husband, former President Bill Clinton, and the Monica Lewinsky scandal, and a right-wing contention that Ms. Harriss romantic relationship with Willie Brown, the former mayor of San Francisco whom she dated in the mid-1990s while he was speaker of the California State Assembly, fueled her political rise.
Mr. Trumps repost was the second time in 10 days that the former president shared content from his personal account making sexually oriented attacks on Ms. Harris. Though he has a history of making crass insults about his opponents, the reposts signal Mr. Trumps willingness to continue to shatter longstanding norms of political speech.

(23,073 posts)Johnson claimed that Trump violently raped her when she was 13 at a 1994 orgy hosted by Jeffrey Epstein the billionaire who was convicted in 2008 of soliciting an underage girl for prostitution and has been accused of having sex with more than 30 underage girls. Johnsons lawsuit mentioned Trumps friendship with Epstein, and a comment Trump made in 2002 about their respective tastes in women: Ive known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. Hes a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.
The lawsuit alleged a number of charges against both Trump and Epstein, including rape, sexual abuse, assault and battery, and false imprisonment. Johnson said that when she was 13, Epstein lured her to parties at his apartment by promising money and a modeling career. Johnson said Trump had sexual contact with her at four of those parties, including tying her to a bed and violently raping her in a savage sexual attack. The lawsuit said Johnson loudly pleaded with Trump to stop, but that he responded by violently striking Plaintiff in the face with his open hand and screaming that he would do whatever he wanted.
After that, Trump allegedly threatened to harm or kill Johnson and her family if she ever told anyone. Johnson said Trump told her he could make them disappear like Maria a 12-year-old girl Johnson says Trump also forced her to have sexual contact with, and whom Johnson hadnt seen since that encounter. Johnson also accused Epstein of raping her anally and vaginally despite her loud pleas to stop, and that he attempted to strike Plaintiff about the head with his closed fists while he angrily screamed that he, Defendant Epstein, rather than Defendant Trump, should have been the one who took Plaintiffs virginity.
The court filings also included a statement from Tiffany Doe, another anonymous woman, who said that she witnessed the rapes and procured the young girls for the parties, and Joan Doe, a classmate of the victim who said she was told about the rapes during the following school year. Tiffany Doe said that Epstein and Trump knew that Johnson was 13.
