Given that one way to discredit the Trump sexual assault accusers is to bring forth an even more horrific criminal act accuser and then expose her as a fake.

Dan Rather and the TANG letters come to mind (how fast they all were to discover the type writer used couldn't possibly have produced the letter at the time it was claimed to have been written).

This is how a "true scandal" can get buried by planted (but fake) evidence.

The amazing thing to me is how many significant scandals (tax returns, using his foundation to pay personal and/or business expenses - self dealing, bringing in underage girls on tourist visas to work as models in the US, use of sub-contractors that hired non documented workers to build his buildings, use of Chinese steel products and buying a vast majority of his hotel property furnishings from foreign manufacturers, etc, etc.) have been discovered, documented by the press, and forgotten within a few days.

All of these scandals (and the tape with Billy Bush and the 11 or 12 sexual assault accusers and the other creepy tapes of him "hitting on" underage girls) would have terminated any other politician.

Remember "hiking the Appellation Trail" dude... and that was just an affair with consenting adult. Trump had at least one very public affair while still married to wife 1.

But none of this bothers the Trumpazees even one banana bit.

These people scream "lock her up" because Hillary had government email on her own server (not illegal or even against the rules at the time) and 3 emails had "confidential" information in them, and that was not properly marked as "confidential" (btw, confidential is the lowest form of classification of "classified documents". And those 3 documents have never been proven to have been leaked or hacked or in any way given to people without the clearance to see those documents. That's it.

I really don't understand my country any more.
