Quote:And what you deem appropriate is to convict the person just because someone makes a claim without considering the possibility that it might not have happened.

No. They deserve a trial for the facts to be presented. Your reaction is phony however.


If your neighbor or co worker was accused of raping a 13 year old in addition to allegations of sexual assault on multiple other women, you are full of [BLEEP] if your reaction would simply to say, "Bummer." Or to even react by saying, "hmm.. let's try to tear down the accuser and point out every facet that could be false."


If this were someone you were in regular contact with, your first reaction would be shock/outrage and your following reaction would be repulsion or at a minimum, mild precaution. If you want to stick to this line of bull that you would immediately take a stance where you would maintain Spock-like even keel of extreme reason, you are lying. If this was ANYONE you actually knew, being simply accused of the action would be enough for you to question everything you know about that person. If it were someone you knew who was accused by multiple women, you would convince yourself the person had to be guilty for at least some of it. If you maintain this would not be the case, I will call you a sociopath or an outright liar.


But with Trump, it's different. Riiight..
