9. No, wearing a white polo shirt at a fair is evidence of innocence
Thu Nov 23, 2017, 03:33 PM
Nov 2017

The accuser's photo (showing her claim of molestation) shows him in a blue polo shirt with a striped collar -- and there's no other photo of him at that same fair in the same dark shirt. So where and when was her photo taken?

Remember, this fair goes for many days. It is possible he went more than one day. LBM20 Nov 2017 #2
Yes, ten days. Always. Mister Ed Nov 2017 #34

This "kompromat" hasn't been proven to be effective. So far it looks awfully flimsy. n/t pnwmom Nov 2017 #22
Do people really think the Fair happens on only one day? WhiskeyGrinder Nov 2017 #12
Just interesting that I can't find any photo in that blue shirt at the 2010 fair mainer Nov 2017 #15
Good point. There should be plenty of Dem supporters who would have had their picture taken OnDoutside Nov 2017 #18
If he was there on multiple days, why do no Google searches show him wearing the dark shirt pnwmom Nov 2017 #23

Possibly more than daily if he felt sweaty and was meeting people. n/t Denzil_DC Nov 2017 #24
Where are any photos of him at the 2010 fair in any shirt but a white one? n/t pnwmom Nov 2017 #26
