    Everyone in here asking for physical evidence before convicting because false accusations exist, pretending they’ve never heard of discovery. You open a case and get a judge to order access to the Epstein files, you don’t demand the victims do all the work first. Also, what is a jury for.

      Plus we aren’t even talking about a conviction, we’re talking about predators keeping positions of power. Trump shouldn’t be where he is, that’s obvious

        I mean, he is also very much a convicted felon and rapist (by any sensible definition of rape)

        I’d imagine that the people who put him in power don’t much care if he’s a pedophile too

        I agree with this. 28 different accusations of sexual misconduct (rape, sexual assault, touching, harassment) should be enough one of MANY reasons to keep Trump away from power.
