What happened to all of Trump's sexual assult victims?
Because people want to pretend that everything is just going to be all right and normal under President Trump. They will not brook discussion of it; if you bring it up, they will say that you're just a sore loser that's mad about Hillary losing, that's the only reason why you're bringing it up, because Bill Clinton.

The only reason I'm bringing it up is because of Bill Clinton? I didn't even think about Bill Clinton. I'm just wondering were they all seemed to disappear to.
I'm wondering if a bunch got on a bandwagon of "he sexually a$$aulted me too" and then backed down when it turned out they would be taking on the President of the United States instead of just a wealthy private citizen.
Like you know, the whole thing was completely bogus.
I did notice.
There is still a lot of contempt for sexual assault victims who speak out (how dare they ruin this poor man's life! lol) While the majority of people will get behind a victim of gang bang rape or child molestation (for example), there is a little less sympathy for "less severe" assaults. A lot of Trump's misconduct (voyeurism and groping) are given a pass by society. And that's not even getting into sexual harassment, Trump's bread and butter. I think some women probably just decided it wasn't in their best interest to come forward.

Probably not, but they have no proof and Trump will destroy them if they pursue it.
I don't see why Trump's sexual aggression is still being questioned. He's admitted to it himself.
If people don't realize that type A males make exaggerated claims to other males in private, I wonder what planet they're from. The problem I had with it is, it's the kind of thing I hear highschool boys saying. But idk maybe it continues. Probably most men wouldn't admit to it. Nobody claimed they were sexually assaulted by Trump until after the eavesdrop tape came out, where immature macho bullshitting, supposedly became a confession. I think playing on that shows as much desperation as still hoping Hillary will become President in 2017. Or 2021 for that matter.

I would be rather angry if I was victim watching Trump lie to the country. I wouldn't want any money. I would just want the truth exposed. It's empowering to speak the truth. If you think they are lying, they might be, but I don't think they are.
It's not desperation and no one is playing at anything. It's not about right or left politics, it's about right versus wrong.
Sexual abuse is about more than just the sexual act. The threats for exposing the truth are sometimes worse than the act. And you can be certain there were threats if abuse took place.
What sexual assaults? What is the definition of that now? Trump has a potty mouth and is kind of a perv but what has he credibly even been accused of? It's all pretty hypocritical considering the almost celebratory reaction most on the left had with womanizing behavior of their golden boys Bill Clinton & JFK. Of course it's a drop in the ocean compared to alleged child sacrificing occultist pedophile ring which their is far far far more evidence for than any of the allegations made against Trump. Go read up about Pizzagate, I think it might be too scary for some to believe.
It's funny that we have this war on 'fake news' right now but it was the so called MSM who engaged in the most malicious tabloidism there ever been acting essentially working as state sponsored propagandists against Donald Trump. There is no such thing as an independent press, what we see online is probably close to reality than what these out of touch people in the media think. If only the MSM put 1/10th the effort we've seen online from ordinary people into investigating those in power, they probably would get an off the record visit from a government agent. Carrot & stick approach and they always take carrot, these people are idiots yet they're supposed to be the gateway of information? Mouthpiece for the corporations who bought and paid for our politicians, how can anybody trust them?
I'm not ruling it out, but I just don't believe these people.
They would have been able to call upon all kinds of support, Trump has more than enough enemies, and they could have come together to support each other too. It's funny how it all fell away after the election was over, isn't it.
On a lighter note, I saw some feminist make a joke (at least I think it was meant as a joke) with a line something like "false rape accusations ruin men's careers" over the top of a picture of Trump doing his victory speech. While I loath their dismissive attitude towards this, it made me laugh.

You sort of proved my point here with the "drop in the bucket" part. The thing is even if the allegations against Trump are true, a lot of people would let it slide. He's been accused of groping and kissing without consent and walking in on teen miss america, etc. When compared with pizzagate it's pretty small potatoes, but that's exactly the point I was making.
I think some of the conclusions about pizzagate may be true. I'm not 100% convinced but I agree that people in positions of power should be investigated. When those in power are corrupt the system breaks down. Unfortunately that might be what is happening now.
