We've known for years that Trump regularly sexually assaults women and has for his whole adult life. What would confirming that he did so on a few more occasions in the 90s change?

Because in this case they probably weren't women.

We’ve known for years that trump regularly sexually assaults children, too. Trump and Epstein were co-defendants in a case in 2016 that was only dropped because the plaintiff was getting death threats, and being followed and harassed in person by hired goons.

I can’t copy-paste from pdfs on my phone for some reason, but if you have the stomach for it, pages 4-5 in that case file are especially damning. (NSFW)
