I think the Hitler Story is worse than any possible groping story. At least IT SHOULD BE!

So many former staffers, and Generals, all saying DON'T LET THIS GUY NEAR THE WHITE HOUSE!

Maybe the grope story was created to bury THIS story? The one that should END TFG's campaign

He told me that when Trump raised the subject of “German generals,” Kelly responded by asking, “‘Do you mean Bismarck’s generals?’” He went on: “I mean, I knew he didn’t know who Bismarck was, or about the Franco-Prussian War. I said, ‘Do you mean the kaiser’s generals? Surely you can’t mean Hitler’s generals? And he said, ‘Yeah, yeah, Hitler’s generals.’ I explained to him that Rommel had to commit suicide after taking part in a plot against Hitler.” Kelly told me Trump was not acquainted with Rommel.

If there is an AI video, they can say, see here's another fake story like all the other stories.
At the same time, trump is a serial abuser. I don't put it past him to have done what is accused.
Will it matter to his supporters? Neither will matter.
For the uber rich that want tax cuts? It won't matter.
Like he said, he could shoot someone on 5th ave and not lose support.

....because he doesn't give a shit, and as Lawrence O'Donnell keeps saying, "Trump is the stupidest candidate for president in the history of the US."

...and we have to deal with this fucking malevolent buffoon.

In reality, how does that make America great again?

They won't touch this 'groper' story without being 100% sure of it's authenticity.

Women should be especially Incensed about Grouping a minor.

And minorities and everyone should want to be a part of making sure that Hitler Asshole doesn’t get back in power.

But I think the John Kelly story, the soldiers funeral, thinking it’s a waste to recover soldiers bodies… that’s enough.
I feel like if there’s a video, like the one described, it should have been turned over to law enforcement and investigated. I’m sure the young ladies face would be blurred out, but it feels wrong to release a video of a violation of her body.
I think what we have right now is enough to work with for the last week and a half.
