Justin Trudeau Accused of Groping Reporter in 2000
Breitbart ^ | 7 jun 2018 | Joshua Caplin

Posted on 06/07/2018 9:08:55 AM PDT by LesbianThespianGymnasticMidget

In a recently resurfaced editorial, Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau appears to apologize for “inappropriately handling” a young journalist nearly 18 years ago.

According to the Creston Valley Advance, Trudeau told the young woman: “I’m sorry. If I had known you were reporting for a national paper, I would never have been so forward.”

The editorial, largely dismissive of the apology, chides Trudeau over what the author perceives as a lack of self-awareness as the son of former prime minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau.

“[S]houldn’t the son of a former prime minister be aware of the rights and wrongs that go along with public socializing?” the editorial asks. ...

“Didn’t he learn through his vast experiences in public life, that groping a strange young woman isn’t in the handbook of proper etiquette, regardless of who she is, what her business is or where they are?” ...

Trudeau, a champion of the #MeToo movement, penned an essay in 2017 urging parents to raise their boys as feminists.

This stuff his so ridiculous. 18 years ago?

Next year it will be "back in high school we went to the movies and he put his arm around me …"

Unless these so called "assaults" happened within the last couple years, the statute of limitation must kick in.

Disclaimer, not a Trudeau fan, but that's not the point.

I don’t care if he grabbed her boobs 18 years ago, I am just ROTFLMAO at him getting hoisted on his own petard. Pu$$y TrueDope is actually a man even though he looks and acts like a woman.

Her “rebuke” must have been so hard as to turn him away from women altogether.

I don’t care who it is. What kind of person gropes a woman? What I don’t understand is how all women seem to come out now about it. Much of this was curiously done during the Clinton era.

If you want to be a groper, don’t be rich or a public figure. If you’re one of those you just can’t trust your gropees.

Man, if this sort of stuff keeps up, I’m in real trouble. My only real protection is nature: Most of them are now either dead or probably in nursing homes by now.

Yep. That’s what scares me. Back then most of my friends were into sports and drugs. I was into chicks. A couple of them had to say no more than once. I live in stark fear every day that one of them is going to come forward. ;)

The good news is that I’m a low profile target and they are probably dead or in a nursing home by now. :-D

I’m old now but I miss the days of men hitting on me. Not groping, just....noticing. Double takes, wolf whistles. Good times.

I guess I could still be a sweet young thang to someone in his 80’s.

Yep. My wife and I have been married for 20 years. She and I are both 64. Every now and then she gets a bit too much attention from some guy, and the age of “that guy” increments up as our ages do.

Well, not for the specific guys. They’re all dead now. ;-)

“”Eighteen years?””

Isn’t that kind of like the old joke about the nun confessing to leading a man on that resulted in her being raped and the priest telling her she’d already confessed several times to that and she said, “I know but I just like to talk about it.”

Well, it’s probably not the way it originally went but like I said - OLD joke!

I think all we women who have never been groped ought to ban together and holler “discrimination”....or something at least!
