Why would a smart, normally self esteemed, independent woman marry into that family? And her husband is not man enough to notice his gf getting hammered by his older brother, or if he did, he still married the stupid woman? Must be a democrat/ biden type situation. Shes a moron married to a simp. Like hunters wife.

Wonder if their is some evolutionary reality that those who become tribal chiefs have a propensity not to be kind, considerate and loving but instead determined, domineering and and sexually active with multiple women. Those women of course are attracted to power and the benefits they receive from liaisons with leaders.

Why the heck would you marry into that family if you were being mistreated by 1 of the brothers? Something isn’t right with the accuser.

Let me get this straight: “Your brother is a creep, jerk, and pervert, but I will marry you anyway.”

She bases this all on "emotional" manipulation. Not any use of force.

Basically, she claims not to have been in control of herself.

There has to be a sense of responsibility, of self control, of free will.

If there is none, the other person in the situation can claim the same: They were emotionally manipulated, driven, they had no responsibility for their actions.

Because she was a minor. Even if she was willing, it was assault because she can’t legally give consent

“Under Michigan law, the age of consent in 16.”

It is interesting that is the last sentence of the story. This seems like a he said she said type of story.

She could be seen as making excuses for the affair.

He is at the least a cad.

Perverted, dysfunctional people all mixed together. You need a scorecard to figure out who is who.

“After Rebekah and Aaron were married, the affair allegedly continued while the two went off to separate colleges.”

Recruited by the Left in college to take down a rising Republican. Hard to win against those tactics.

Note also, like ALL of Trump’s accusers, there is no EVIDENCE of anything happening until AFTER Lee achieved political power. And I use the term ‘evidence’ here very loosely to mean her so-called ‘disclosure’ of what supposedly happened.

“Chatfield, was among seven Michigan GOP lawmakers who met with then-President Donald Trump at the White House as Trump tried to overturn Democrat Joe Biden’s win in the state.”

He and the others didn’t do anything about it.

“Something isn’t right with the accuser.”

It never happened, she’s lying. At least until she can provide some PROOF that it did happen (police reports, therapist reports, medical records, pictures, videos, etc. from back then).

BS. Her hubby found out, and she’s playing CYA. The man’s reputation and life be damned, she is playing victim.
