Did any of the accusers get bribes, in Russian currency? Or from that money laundering country where that old goat Wilbur Ross banked?

Did any of the accusers get a condo on DJT's shitty golf course? Or in his mobbed up tower in NYC?

A few weeks before, a loud-ish Minnesota voice, Garrison Keilor, got accused of sexual harassment, which was a joke. It silenced his voice, which was one of the first to call out W's deadly clown car.

Also a few weeks before, local Minnesota congressmen were accused of sexual misconduct.

This was all a set up to keep Al quiet.
