    As a Trump-hating liberal Democrat, I wish there were more evidence against him for this. Not the defamation - he quite obviously did that - but the sexual assault.

    It’s such a touchy subject because many people don’t come forward for years or decades after it’s happened. But your ability to mount a defense against an accuser diminishes over time, which is why we have statutes of limitations.

    What were you doing 30 years ago today? Prove it.

    Carroll didn’t seem to have a lot of great evidence. My understanding is that alleges that she told two friends and that’s it. Seems unethical to say he did it for sure without a bit more proof. That’s all I’m saying.

    I’d like to get Trump on things he’s definitely done. He’s done plenty of horrible shit. Every time we get him on something that toes the line or isn’t proven, he’s going to get a boost in the polls.
