I think it's important that we don't miss what Stormy is testifying to.

He invited her to dinner. There was no dinner. She wanted to leave. He stood between her and the door. He told her that her career and future depended on her having sex with him. He didn't use a condom.

That's not consensual sex.

She tried calling a friend for help in the bathroom.

And it's important that this was a meeting to discuss business, this wasn;t a social meeting. She wanted to be on his show.

She was not there for sex, she was shocked by his being undressed when she came out of the bathroom. She didn;t want it and didn't feel she could stop it. He was using his power of a promise of being on his TV show to leverage sex from her. It's all disgusting and Harvey Weinstein is sitting in prison right now for some of the same exact behavior.

At a certain point, you put away childish things. It just proves that he is tsf. Are you not seeing my point intentionally?

Barron. The rest of his wives/kids are basically enablers. Barron, at his age, must think his dad is a fucking scumbag.

Donald Trump masqueraded as publicist to brag about himself [/b]- The Washington Post

The voice is instantly familiar; the tone, confident, even cocky; the cadence, distinctly Trumpian. The man on the phone vigorously defending Donald Trump says he’s a media spokesman named John Miller, but then he says, “I’m sort of new here,” and “I’m somebody that he knows and I think somebody that he trusts and likes” and even “I’m going to do this a little, part time, and then, yeah, go on with my life.”

I wish she would call it rape. Without her doing that, he'll always get away with it.

27. This is what djt's 'sexual encounter' with 'Stormy' looks like to me:
Tue May 7, 2024, 06:15 PM
May 7

Her main motive in meeting with him was essentially to help her get a spot on the 'Apprentice' so she could get a broader, more legitimate public image via national tv.

Djt, however, saw this as an opportunity to take advantage of her 'sexually open' image and lure her into sex, whether she wanted to or not. So when he had her meet him in his dining room under the guise of offering her a business opportunity...he apparently added a drug to her glass of water, kept her chatting until he knew it was taking effect.
When he saw her losing her mental and physical 'balance'...he sat on his bed, waiting.

It was not consensual, because Stormy was not fully aware of what had happened until she regained her senses, after the act, shivering and upset and anxious to get away.

It wasn't forced sex ..it was using a woman as a semi-conscious sex toy. A form of rape
