E Jean Carrol working with lawyers to obtain accused rapist Trump*s DNA
Amid the furor over Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegations against Joe Biden, it’s easy to forget that his Republican opponent has been accused of rape several times.
As well as 24 or so other allegations of sexual misconduct, including sexual assault and harassment against women.
That opponent is Trump*, to whom the Republican Party has sworn a blood oath of fealty—allegations of rape being no issue.
I remind you of this not to minimize Reade’s allegation, but to point out the gaping moral divide between the parties when it comes to violence against women.
Democrats have to at least pretend to care about the victims. Trumplicans don’t even pretend—their base clearly worships Trump* no matter how many women come forward to say he’s raped, assaulted, groped, assailed, or maligned them.
One could hope that Trumplicans are hypocrites, because the other option is far worse.
