Stacey Williams says the ex-president, whose spokesperson denied the allegations, touched her in an unwanted sexual way in 1993, after Epstein introduced them.

      But at least early voting wouldn’t have started and maybe they could have shaved off a few people who have now already voted for Trump.

      Edit: Sorry. Reading back, this was more callous than I meant it to sound. I was just speaking in the abstract and did not make that at all clear. She has the right to come forward whenever she feels ready. Or never if she never felt ready.

        Maybe look back harder yet, damn. It’s obvious you’re 100% ready to cheer the political effects of this insofar as they’re convenient for your side. If it’s not obvious to you, or you think it’s some fluke utterance that doesn’t actually reflect your position on this, I encourage you to look harder and how and whether you’re willing to use victim advocacy as cover for your politics.

          You might look at literally every other comment I have made in this thread where I have said that it’s up to her to come forward and politics are irrelevant.

          Or my edit to this post where I said that I was speaking in the abstract and not specifically about her.

          If you want to get mad at people, there are people literally berating her in this thread.

          I mean there’s someone slightly below my comment saying the timing is suspicious. You didn’t bother replying to that comment despite them not saying they were speaking in the abstract.

          One wonders why.
