Beatrice Keul, a model and former Miss Switzerland, alleged to Judiciary Committee staff that she was raped by Trump in a Plaza Hotel suite in Manhattan when she was 24. Keul said that while attending the American Dream Pageant, which had a partnership with Trump, she met with Trump at a press luncheon at the event.
Trump, according to Keul, promised to arrange her visa in the U.S. and ensure her acceptance into New York University through his friend Paolo Zampolli, a close Trump ally who was, until earlier this month, part of his Administration. At the same event, she also spent at least 10 minutes talking to Epstein who she said claimed to have organized “many parties with Don.”
Later that day, Keul alleges, Trump invited her to a hotel suite where Trump “grabbed Keul from behind and forcibly raped her,” causing “bleeding and bruising on multiple parts of her body,” the report says. Following the incident, Keul alleges Trump made her promise she would keep quiet and repeated his promise for visa and college admission.
Because Keul’s passport had been taken from her on her arrival, she was not able to leave the contest following the incident, she alleges, according to the report. After she returned to Switzerland, she declined to participate in an additional Trump-sponsored pageant in Hawaii several weeks later.
What’s going on with trump’s hair there?
Make a bot that adds that as the top comment on every picture of him ever. Save yourself a lot of trouble.
It’s disgusted by him and really wants to leave.
nothing says “the democrats are a legitimate party and not just playing electoral football” like waiting until the end of october to pursue damning claims against their political opponents
this shit is undoubtedly true but let’s not pretend the democrats give a shit except as points
I see your point, but you got to understand there’s multiple layers to this.
They could’ve brought up this case earlier, but it would’ve changed nothing. It would’ve been swallowed by the constant shit tsunami generated by his orange rapistness. It would’ve gone on the pile of “shit he did but won’t get punished for”. After all there won’t be an investigation, a legal case, anything.
This is only useful as political munition, and should be used as such. It won’t WIN them directly anything, but it might tilt things enough with the “undecided” voters to provide an upper edge.
Or would you rather they released this 8-10 months ago, and resulted in nothing but a week or two of headlines?
I would rather Dems brought it up while they had control of the DoJ and prosecuted criminal actions like they do for any other criminal, but they call me a dreamer.
Obviously that’s the ideal situation.
Question is, when was this file compiled? Was there even a chance of bringing it to a truly independent DoJ?
This is some Reagan keeping hostages justification.
The question is, how many votes have the Democrats lost by engaging in cynical gamesmanship by waiting until the election instead of acting with integrity by releasing this at the earliest opportunity?
Shit exactly like this is the primary fucking problem people have with the Democrats: their abject refusal to do the right thing on principle, instead only doing the bare fucking minimum of it only when they think it will help them.
(And before the trolls swarm me: no, this is not a fucking excuse not to vote for them anyway.)
So you’d rather the Dems “did the right thing”^(1) and kept losing?
Wasn’t the entirety of their loss in 2024 due to them playing by the rules, taking the high road, and “doing the right thing”?
The dilemma here is choosing between:
- publishing this file immediately, resulting in a week or two of media flurry before it’s buried by the avalanche of shit Paedo In Chief paddles constantly, resulting in zero justice being served
- publishing this file at a time where it can be helpful, so the victims get at least some form of justice when Dems are elected (and hopefully push for reform and maybe even a criminal investigation)
^(1) Is it even the right thing to blow a case up knowing it will have no effect beyond MAGA shitstains harassing the victims to no end? That the victims will never see justice?
justice and playing politics are not compatible. full stop.
obviously playing politics trivializes the horror of the actions because it means they obviously didn’t care enough to take action as soon as possible.
we’re so deep in red/blue sportscasting that this very basic moral point is now invisible to most people. it is undoubtedly felt, but no one can even name it anymore.
fuck that
Taking action sooner would have had no effect. How is it morally better to report it such that it has no affect? They are trying to swing enough seats so they can actually have some real effect.
Is your main a .ml account?
Can’t two things be true at once? Of course they care - the best time to (re)release this information is when the most other people will care, too.
It’s called politics, and I for one am happy to see the nazis get shit on more and more
More and more? Huh? Where?
What was the name of that new Ayn Rand book? MAGA Shrugged? Something like that?
The Dickhead
Annnnd it’s a nothing burger, this orange sack of shit will never face any consequences, a truly deplorable part of the human species.
What a weird comment. It sounds like that’s your hope?
Is that what you wish for?
Not at all, I want him to suffer the consequences of his actions.
Unfortunately Americans have had way more than enough time to do something on multiple occasions and haven’t. I’ve no faith in Americans to do anything close to the right thing.
We’ve had to fight our way past Democrat politicians who have been protecting their insider trading status quo, but that is working, and the Dems have made it VERY clear that the new Democrat Congress is going to be laser focused on investigations. EVERY committee will be investigating MAGA crime, and some MAGAs are going to be running from committee to committee to testify every day.
Maybe it will keep them from their jobs, so they can do less damage.
Is it really that weird? Hoe many bad shit has Trump been accused and how many of those horrible things like rape, child rape has he remotely actually got punished for?
Yet is word you people need to learn. Unless he suddenly croaks from some instant physical calamity, his final days will not be pleasant.
You say I need to learn the meaning of the word ‘yet’. I say you need to get less naive very quickly. He is been getting away with this shit for decades. He has been raping kids, raping women, committing high treason, voter fraud, overthrow the government, more evil shit. But we just need to wait a little while longer? Seriously dude, that is beyond naive
