Desperation: Trump opponents float a 25 year old rape allegation by his ex
American Thinker ^ | 07/28/2015 | Rick Moran

Posted on 07/28/2015 6:43:37 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

The Trump Circus has just become "R" rated as the Daily Beast has published a 25 year old allegation of rape by Trump's ex wife Ivana.

The article quotes a graphic description of the "rape" from the 1993 book  Lost Tycoon: The Many Lives of Donald J. Trump. American Thinker being a family website, we will not reproduce any of the account here. Besides, we're not in the business of spreading falsehoods, except to violently criticize them.

That said, Michael Cohen, Trump's Special Counsel at The Trump Organization, had some interesting comments for the Daily Beast reporters who wrote the hit piece:

“I will make sure that you and I meet one day while we’re in the courthouse. And I will take you for every penny you still don’t have. And I will come after your Daily Beast and everybody else that you possibly know,” Cohen said. “So I’m warning you, tread very fu**ing lightly, because what I’m going to do to you is going to be fu**ing disgusting. You understand me?”

“You write a story that has Mr. Trump’s name in it, with the word ‘rape,’ and I’m going to mess your life up… for as long as you’re on this frickin’ planet… you’re going to have judgments against you, so much money, you’ll never know how to get out from underneath it,” he added.

That lawyer - not connected to the campaign - is doing Trump no favors. He should have said "No comment" or referred the reporters to the campaign press office. As it is, he looks much the bully and worse - a legal thug. 

The Daily Beast smear is as predictable as April showers.

Somewhere in this mess....I see a H. L. Mencken quote: “Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard”.

I think Trump will lay down a five-star quote here and the article will die off in twenty-four hours. He’s figured their story schedule and how quick the public consumes and forgets everything now.

Lol,,Women in divorces.
-Nothing- they say should be seen as ANTHING more that a mere legal tactic. No matter how shocking, this rule approaches 100% true. This is especially true if the man has created significant wealth.

I don't think it looks like bullying for his attorney to come down hard on these kinds of tactics.

After what they've ignored with Obama over the past 7 yearsI believe people are sick of the selective application of the media's twisted ethics.

The left will go all the way back to toilet training problems if he had any. Its their way. Its the Alinsky method.

This is sad, sick, and disgusting. The way to kill Trump is to let him be Trump; he’ll do himself in eventually. Dredging up crap from 20 year old books is only going to generate sympathy for him.

This not the work of the left. This is the work of his Republican opponents.

Ivana still wears Trumps last name. How angry can she be?

I agree. Particularly the people who are inclined to support Trump; they’re going to love what this lawyer said.

The other comment, about there bring no such thing as spousal rape, is the real problem. Especially given the numbers from the other day showing Trump with significant support from women.

What makes you think it's the Democrats? There are 15 Republicans trailing Trump in the polls.

The lawyer is a loose cannon with a big mouth. He’ll deliver quotes to cherry pick from throughout the campaign season.
His big mouth doesn’t help any but I think Ivana saved the day here.

[T]hey are being refuted by none other than Ivana Trump.

“I have recently read some comments attributed to me from nearly 30 years ago at a time of very high tension during my divorce from Donald,” she said in a statement obtained by CNN. “The story is totally without merit. Donald and I are the best of friends and together have raised three children that we love and are very proud of. I have nothing but fondness for Donald and wish him the best of luck on his campaign. Incidentally, I think he would make an incredible president.”

So, why did Ivana keep Trump’s last name?

Could he him. Could be Bush's camp or Paul's or Santorum's or any of the other 11 candidates who are trailing Trump.

I’m not sure this is the RATS doing although I’m sure they’re loving it.

I am disappointed that the article didn't mention this from Ivana Trump:

"I have recently read some comments attributed to me from nearly 30 years ago at a time of very high tension during my divorce from Donald," she said in a statement obtained by CNN. "The story is totally without merit. Donald and I are the best of friends and together have raised three children that we love and are very proud of. I have nothing but fondness for Donald and wish him the best of luck on his campaign. Incidentally, I think he would make an incredible president"
