Historic allegation against Trump was revived and allegations upgraded in report released by Judiciary Committee Democrats days before the midterm elections. The White House has strongly denied the claims

Donald Trump is accused of raping a former Miss Switzerland in a report probing the president’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein released by House of Representatives Democrats this week.

Beatrice Keul, a retired model and beauty pageant contestant, told the House Judiciary Committee about an incident alleged to have taken place at New York’s Plaza Hotel in 1993. The report, released a week ahead of the midterm elections, also summarizes previously reported allegations from four other women against Trump.

The White House has strongly denied all of the reports’ claims, accusing “crazed” Democrats of “a desperate attempt to distract Americans” and insisting that the president has been “fully exonerated of anything related to Epstein.”

Keul previously claimed in October 2024 that Trump had sexually assaulted her at a beauty pageant staged at the Plaza Hotel, which Trump then owned.

“The president may have raped someone, but we need to double down on the made up rape threat that transgender people pose to women!”

-Republicans, demonstrably.

    but more likely would have only postponed it allowing a significantly more competent and disciplined fascist administration to be granted power 4 years later.

    That’s where the “legislation to plug the holes” part comes into it. Had he played it right he would have had congress united against him which he could just let them “win” by signing their fixes. When the next fascist comes around there would be mechanisms in place to thwart them. Instead we’re in the situation we’re in now where only half of congress is interested in fixing the problem because the fascist in power is the other half’s guy.
