First lady Melania Trump said that women who accuse men of sexual misconduct need to "show the evidence," and that men as well as women should be heard in cases of alleged sexual assault. Trump spoke with ABC News in an interview ...
Trump said that there needs to be "really hard evidence" to prove that a man has committed any kind of sexual misconduct.
"I do stand with women. But we need to show the evidence," she said. Echoing her husband and Republicans who have accused the press of eagerly reporting stories of misconduct without evidence, Trump added that "sometimes the media goes too far. The way they portray some stories, it's not correct. It's not right," she said.
Trump also said that some organizations and foundations were unwilling to partner with her because of their distaste for the administration in another portion of the interview aired on Tuesday. "I feel they are choosing the politics over helping others," she said.
She declined to say which organizations specifically had refused to work with her.

What a total zero she is.

(6,535 posts)And of course, if it's someone you know, it's not rape, right? Because rapes only happen when black men or Mexicans assault innocent young white girls in alleys and such. It couldn't possibly be rape if it was a husband or a boyfriend or something, or an acquaintance that the woman must have led on. And what if the video showed the woman flirting, or wearing sexy clothes? That would prove she was asking for it. Nope, we need to have clear evidence on film of the woman saying "no!" and a signed statement from the black or brown man involved, confirming that he heard her say "no" and went ahead with the act anyway. And of course it needs to be reported within one hour of the occurrence, otherwise the woman is clearly just making shit up to ruin a good man (unless it's a black or brown man, in which case, hang 'em).
Sometimes I feel like we should just start over with society.

(48 posts)Ford wants an investigation to present "the evidence". Kav, Trump, FBI insisted not presenting "the evidence". Not only did they not want to hunt for the stuff, but when handed to them, it was rejected.
Typical contradicting demand/expectation of women from our patriarchal masters.
The discussion is out loud. We want an investigation and they refuse to have one. Then tell us, we have got to have the evidence. It is like the criminal insisting we get no tools for investigation, stake out, catching. That we must catch them red handed, like stumble upon it. And when we do? They say, don't believe what you see.
Here is what I do not get over the last couple years. The number of times I have seen our democrats wanting to create M as a victim of Trump when all the while, she is a part of Trumpco. She has consistently shown us over and over. Sometimes, even Dems refuse to believe what is clearly there to see. We just did it with Bush and McCain, to a point. With the hug from Michelle, we almost felt something about Bush. Meh, advocating for Kav. Fighting for him. A participant in making that happen. Laura Bush? I mean, we have her supporting choice, along with the two daughters. Then she is pulling strings and favors to get Kav in.
I don't care do u ?
Interesting.

Some of us were NEVER fooled by you or your face full of botox or fillers Melanie.
Melanie & her husband are 2 peas in a filthy pod.

(279 posts)She wasn't picked by trump because of her brains. trump would not latch himself to someone with an actual brain that might challenge his.
Melania reminds me of an old girlfriend I once knew.
If you asked her what she was thinking and she told you "nothing"... BELIEVE HER!!!... :O She honestly had NOTHING going on in that brain of her's. I dealt with it for awhile but it eventually drove me nuts.
I feel for Melania because I'll bet given a choice, she wanted to be nothing more then the silent trophy wife in the background being pampered. I don't think she expected to be thrust into public attention like this.
The truth of the matter is, she's not intelligent, never has been, and never will be.
She can't help that she is basically not a sharp tool, it's just who she is.
She's DUMB!!!, and that's what trump WANTED. It's not 100% her fault she fit that requirement of trump.

(62,416 posts)no ejaculation, no evidence? Scratch off some skin and blood? Neither are necessarily evidence, but could get you killed.
Maybe a nice video with the attacker introducing himself?
I am somewhat in awe at her cluelessness.
I was attacked by a priest as a young boy. Getting evidence was for some reason not on my mind. Getting the fuck out of there as quick as I could sure was though.
WTF is she thinking?
