    President Trump tweeted, "Why didn't someone call the FBI 36 years ago?" According to Department of Justice statistics, as of 2016 only 23 percent of rapes or sexual assaults were reported to the police.https://n.pr/2NxeKIf

        LOL Doesn't everybody know lots of 15 years olds who when they have been assaulted, their first thought and that of their family and friends is - hmmm I think we should call the FBI.

        Why don't women come forward? Because they're treated worse than the men who actually carried out the rapes and sex assaults. Society still blames the victim; Trump has done this himself.

        The attitude of the old white Senators and the old President is the reason so many victims of sexual assault and sexual harassment are reluctant to come forward.

        Yeeah, because all 15 year-old girls call the FBI when they're assaulted. This fucking piece of garbage has no idea what it's like to be on the other side of sexual assault because he's only ever been the perpetrator.

        I have a question. Did she not tell her parents? If not, why not? I raised three women and all three would have told me if this had happened to them and I would have responded.

        Shame Embarrassment Fear Shock shall I go on? That's great that you are so sure that yours would tell you. Not all girls have that relationship with their parents, or have that kind of strength and/or confidence.

        If all rapes were reported, Lil Donnie would have been locked up decades ago. What the hell is wrong with our culture? Blame the victim?! Insanity.

        You would think Kavanaugh would just drop out. What ever the outcome he will always be the drunken prep schooler. Why put his family and the rest of us through all this crap. He doesn't need to be on the court and we will get someone else!!

        In case US needed proof of lack of empathy, sense of privilege & authoritarianism of the old, male, White, Christian kleptocracy that runs Republican Party of today, here comes Donald Trump to highlight the point: an avowed sex abuser appoints another, expected to save his neck!

        By saying what he said, the POTUS may actually have made it a little harder to get Kavanaugh confirmed because this line of attack makes the judge (at least from my point of view) a less sympathetic figure.

        The man is just not capable of SHUTTING UP. He insists on having us see him for the cretin that he is. It's unavoidable. Doing or saying the right thing is not possible for someone who doesn't have it in him to do that. Our "president" is simply a horrible human being.

        For the man who claims he didn't have an affair with Stormy Daniels until his lawyer outed him with a recording. Some moral high horse he has.
