Johnson claimed that Trump violently raped her when she was 13 at a 1994 orgy hosted by Jeffrey Epstein — the billionaire who was convicted in 2008 of soliciting an underage girl for prostitution and has been accused of having sex with more than 30 underage girls.

Johnson said Trump had sexual contact with her at four of those parties, including tying her to a bed and violently raping her in a “savage sexual attack.” The lawsuit said Johnson “loudly pleaded” with Trump to stop, but that he responded by “violently striking Plaintiff in the face with his open hand and screaming that he would do whatever he wanted.”

~~Criminal ✅~~ Illegal Democrat Witch Hunt

~~Con-Man ✅~~ Media Lies

~~Rapist ✅~~ Fake News

~~Racist (They enjoy this.) ✅~~ Democrats are the real DEI racists.

~~Hostile insurrection. ✅~~ Peaceful protest.

Unfortunately for them this is what that list is.

We live in 2 or more realities existing simultaneously due to the real scum of the earth: propagandists.

I don't get why people are down voting you. This is exactly it. They have an infinite layer of lies on lies to spin all of this stuff.

Yeah man, Trumpists and Propagandists, two mutually exclusive groups...

Most Trumpists have been duped by propagandists. It's more comforting to them to believe the fake news talking points than to admit "their guy" is actually a vile waste of skin.

I think its also that "free speech" has become "you can lie to anyone for any reason and recieve almost no consequences" and in the age where media can be pushed and spun faster than it can be read there's just no way our existing system can handle it.

This is why there's a clear parallel to the 1940s where broadcast mediums pretty much did the same thing.

Now everyone has a megaphone and you get extra money if it snags eyeballs.
