Gives them tremendous power. An argument that you cannot win. When I suggested that the women who accused Trump might be lying my wife suggested “Why would they come out and make these accusations at such a cost to themselves?”. Well great then, we are to knee jerk believe every accusation then because no one would make the claim if it wasn’t true?
She has been listening to CBC News on her drive to school - that could be part of the problem.
My wife asked me if I thought he had done it, and she told me stories of her friends saying what he has done.
I told her I have seen no proof on the specifics, and will not pass judgement until I see the facts, not based on wild accusations, and rumors from the media.
