No video released yet but the right wing blog-sphere is already claiming it’s AI. Put on your seat-belts and keep your hands inside the car at all times.

      More like claims of a video that would have anyone with a brain to decide that Kamala Harris is the better candidate to vote for by November 5th.

    I’d like to see the video first. Claims of a video are pretty meaningless. It’s a lot like saying you have a concept of a plan.

    Nevertheless, I hope it’s not fucking true, because if it is true, that means some poor woman was victimized, will probably never get to see any justice because the legal system refuses to hold Trump accountable for anything, and it won’t move the needle an inch in terms of the blind deference Republicans give to Trump.

      And the woman in the video will be endlessly harassed by the far-right extremists regardless of who took and released the video.

      Child. Some poor child was sexually assaulted. We need to collectively stop with the mitigating language thing. We’re not the fucking news media.

        Also, the assumption that SA victim = female. The article only ever says minor and any gender can be a victim.

      I’m unfamiliar with this news site, but they must know they have to do better on sources, because this sounds like reporting on rumours.

      "Several social media users, including commentators and reporters…" (emphasis mine).

      Interesting that the right is already accusing them of potentially using deepfakes in the future. Maybe they know of something captured in video, or maybe random blanket statements of innocence are necessary with a knob end like Trump.

      I also hope no one was victimized.

    That’s… Interesting. This site is considered to have a significant right bias, but it’s still reporting on these claims, and seems to give them credibility. OTOH, Times Now News has a very mixed record on facts, so this might be total bullshit.

    We’ll see what happens. If it’s real, and it comes out with a week left before the election, that might be just enough to tip the scales. Maybe.

      Doubtful, GOP was perfectly willing to vote for a pedophile before, this is literally nothing to them.

        I’m thinking of the voters that are at the margins, not his core demographic. I agree that MAGAs are going to be unswayed no matter what. But there are def. voters that are thinking about personal finances, and think Trump will be better for their wallet (spoiler: he wouldn’t be), and you might be able to peel them off if something really gross came out just before they voted. Or peel enough of them off to make a difference.

      He’s already been judged a rapist, if they supported him after E Jean Carroll this new allegation isn’t going to change their minds

    This fascist POS was literally found to be a credible sexual abuser and it did nothing.

    This too, if proven true, will also do nothing because Republicans endorse this type of behavior.

    I can all but guarantee that this won’t sway a single one of his voters. In fact, watch that this doesn’t get him even more support. They love circling the wagons when their beloved king is in trouble.

      Personally I’d like to see some other words be used like; eviscerated, mutilated, kill-a-man-jaroed, and my personal favorite, decimated.
