I'm sure everyone has seen that Access Hollywood Tape where Donald Trump says, basically, that when you're a star, they let you do anything, including grabbing women by the p***y.

And who doesn't know how often he has defended known pedophiles, that he has made terrible sexual comments about his daughter, Ivanka. 

and that, when he had the Miss Universe pageant, he used to go backstage while the women were dressing and then bragged about it.

He paid off two different women he was having sex with pretty close to the last election, including Stormy Daniels,  and at least one, Karen McDougal,  he was having sex with right after his third wife Melania had given birth. He is in the middle of a lawsuit joined by at least 12 women, and was recently accused by a woman who said he raped her in a dressing room.  (Here's the full list of accusations) Trump also at one point ran a NYC *modeling agency* that featured girls of who knows what age that were trafficked from overseas, this at the same time he was a friend of Jeffrey Epstein. In fact, Epstein said "I want to set up my modeling agency the same way trump set up his modeling agency".  Also recently, a friend of Trumps, Robert Kraft,  was caught at a *massage parlor* in a town near Mara Lago getting a sex message (that would be that football team owner)   

Decent people not only attempt to avoid Trump but also avoid anyone who supports him politically or quasi-"religiously". 

Trump was also a friend to Jeffrey Epstein, who has just been arrested for sex trafficking. Trump was actually in Epstein's little black book. Epstein also bragged that he was the one that introduced Melania to Trump-Melania, of course, has her own sketchy illegal immigration story.

What I had heard of before was that, during the time Trump hung around with Epstein, an underage girl alleges she was raped by him. I have a pacer account so I decided to look up the case, which was filed in the United States District Court, Central District of California, case # 16-cv-00797 Katie Johnson v Donald J Trump and Jeffrey E Epstein. Here's a screen dump of the complaint

P.S. The whole deal with Trump's friend Jeffrey Epstein is incredily corrupt. Alex Acosta, who, amazingly, is now in Trump's cabinet in the department in charge of sex trafficking, gave Epstein an amazingly light deal based on what Epstein was credibly accused of some years ago the first time he was arrested for sex trafficking. The Miami Herald newspaper has had a series of articles that go into depth about this, and, if you haven't read about it, you will be shocked. 

Thanks to dogged reporting from Julie K. Brown at the Miami Herald, we know that a 53-page indictment drafted by Acosta’s own office was based on the statements of dozens of victims, and yet Acosta still brokered a plea deal allowing Epstein to register as a sex offender and spend just 13 months in the Palm Beach County jail. Epstein was allowed to be picked up by a car on 12 hours of daily work release from the prison, six days a week. A Florida judge ruled earlier this year that the non-prosecution agreement violated the Crime Victims’ Rights Act because the witnesses were never consulted or informed that it had happened.

Epstein was charged Monday, by federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York, with running a sex trafficking operation. A search of his home revealed hundreds if not thousands of images of naked women, and, according to federal authorities, “some of the nude or partially-nude photographs appear to be of underage girls.” New York authorities specifically credited the Miami Herald, which has surfaced many other questionable details about the case, with helping lead them to new evidence. On Tuesday another woman came forward with allegations that she had been raped by Epstein as a teenager: Jennifer Araoz told NBC News that she was approached at age 14 in 2001 by a woman who took her to Epstein’s home where she was paid to give him massages in her underwear, and that he raped her when she was 15.

Acosta tried to explain his deal before the cameras the other day by trying to blame anyone but himself.  (UPdate 7/12/2019- Alexander Acosta is resigning- good! ) 

Acosta’s tactic Wednesday consisted of blaming state prosecutors first, and the victims second. His claim is that he’s actually a good guy, because when the state authorities decided to pursue charges that would have failed to result in jail time, his office stepped in to press for a more draconian sanction. “Simply put, the Palm Beach state attorney’s office was willing to let Epstein walk free, no jail time, nothing,” he said. “We did what we did because we wanted to see Epstein go to jail.” The deal had Epstein plead guilty to two state prostitution charges, resulting in the jail time and sex offender registration, though he also had to pay restitution to the victims.

Acosta’s version of the story has a million problems. Barry Krischer, Palm Beach state attorney at the time, immediately lit into Acosta for trying to “rewrite history” by blaming state authorities. “I can emphatically state that Mr. Acosta’s recollection of this matter is completely wrong,” Krischer told the New York Times. “No matter how my office resolved the state charges, the U.S. attorney’s office always had the ability to file its own federal charges. If Mr. Acosta was truly concerned with the state’s case and felt he had to rescue the matter, he would have moved forward with the 53-page indictment that his own office drafted.” Conveniently, each office has shifted the blame onto the other, so nobody bears any responsibility. Regardless, who gets to bring charges in such a case is never the sort of zero-sum turf battle either man is making it out to be—as former federal prosecutor Barbara McQuade notes: “He could have allowed the state prosecutor to do whatever he wanted with the state case and still pursued his own separate federal charges. Sometimes prosecutors work cooperatively with state prosecutors to work out a global resolution when it is in their clients’ mutual interest, but it is certainly not required.” In other words, Acosta is pretending when he says he was jammed by state prosecutors.

Here's EXACTLY what Krischer said.

I am usually more sympathetic when people fall from a great height but Acosta’s press conference only reaffirmed the negative view that many of us have developed of Acosta. He blamed state prosecutors and even seemed to portray 2007 as the virtual dark ages when victim rights and transparency were unknown values. His plea bargain was a disgrace and violated federal law. The result worked to the harm of dozens of victims and undermined the integrity of the justice system as a whole. The real question is not why he resigned but why 60 Democratic and Republican senators voted to confirm this man. It is also another example of poor decision making by this White House to bring on such a controversial figure and then allow this scandal to fester and explode back on the Administration
