    We all know he committed depraved sex crimes. We’ve heard the victims. I’d just like the third party evidence released because we humans would rather believe a little black book than a living, breathing person who was a child when he raped her.

      I’m not sure it even matters because anyone who isn’t his supporter already knows and anyone who IS probably believes in alternative facts instead.

        Sure. But we’ve got an awful lot of victims who claimed this independent of each other, and they got paid off, and we know there’s a black book even if they won’t show it to us.

          That’s a reasonable basis to expect conclusive evidence to exist & search for it. Unless that evidence turns up, we don’t conclusively know.

          we know there’s a black book

          Do we? There’s

          released a while ago. That black book in particular is inconclusive of anything.

          Maybe you’re referring to a more damning black book, but the press so far has written that claims it exists come from speculation & myth. It’s possible it exists, but I don’t think we know it.
