The subsequent coverup was another issue. And the investigation uncovered. Right now we know nothing about trump except we don't like him. Let the investigation take its course

Even now we don't know for 100 percent sure, which means your statement that it was not his doing is untrue.

5. He is guilty..Why? Because he lies and steals. It is his way of doing things.

All his life, lying and stealing. When? His company signs contracts and does not pay. Often the small businessmen who sign the contracts with him, cannot afford to go to court. Even when they can, often Trumps lawyers keep the thing going so long, that when settlements are made, they are often for a small percentage of the original contract. So it is lying and stealing. I recall reading about this before the election and a number of people verified that is what Trump did...

....So, it is lying and stealing....So as far as being "guilty" you got to assume he is, because he doesn't tell the truth..

........Now the playing field is different. This is truly the "big show" and lots of spectators earn a living exposing the show. Does the leader of the show tell the truth? Why not? The leader of the last show was remarkably honest, but this show is different. As honest as the last leader was, this one is as ...dishonest..!!

That is his life, getting away with lies and stealing. He steals sex too. He says he would grab a woman and do what he could..It is available for all to hear, and we all have heard it. ..This fellow lies and steals and that is the way he lives, and has lived that way for many years...
