So, in the new story, Kristin Anderson says she was groped by Trump. But before the story became published, they got the story verified by others. It is the same for the NY Times stories. Verified by several others that these experiences happened and that the victim told other people years ago. These stories couldn't have been made up..if the verification process is complete..

So, the verification is real, if anyone looks at the complete stories. These stories would not have made it to publication if there were not many or several other sources for the same story. That is, in Kristin Anderson's case, she told others about Trump's groping at about the time that groping happened and those others, did indeed verify that Kristin did tell them years ago.

The Atlantic, NY Times and other major sources know how to check to see if stories are, "made up." That is what reporters do. So, the likelihood that these are, "made up" ..as Trump says... is nil almost not possible...

If someone repeats this, in support of Trump..then tell them about verification, and ask them to read the whole story to see the truth...Now some don't care what he did, but some will indeed turn away and not vote for him or not vote at all..This does make people puke..

here is a link to the original story at the Washington Post:
