22. Given you can't name anyone, how is this different from Trump saying "many people say"?

It's conspiracy garbage to care more about needing to claim it's a smear or hit job instead of a man suddenly learning about the consequences of his actions.

The people I know who have helped publicize the rape are people like Cheyenne Hunt. She's hardly establishment as she brought forth the stories of Swalwell. Then there are the now embarrassed progressives who accept they overlooked Platner's history. Chuck Schumer wasn't pushing this story. Blaming unnamed "establishment figures" is just shifting blame away from the guy who's responsible Platner himself and the people who supported him because they were fine ignoring his entire adult life.
