Is it over?
Has it been resolved?
What was the final judgment from the investigative journalism community about the facts of this matter?

Is she a real person that really did it or is she another imaginary friend Donald sometimes employs in his virtuoso manipulation of our media stenographers?
Is this slipping down the national memory hole or is there some outcome that settle's this mystery once and for all?
Just wondering because Drumpf is so scandalous and has such a free pass with our Corporate MSM that it will be yet another brick in Don's wall that, as usual, doesn't seem to make any difference to his low information fan base?

(1,399 posts)There are several fake twitter accounts proclaiming to be her, one with some particularly bad/funny photoshopped pictures of her. My guess is that is indeed a ghost writer that Donald used for a couple of his books but had nothing to do with the speech, she just volunteered to fall on the sword in exchange for a nice extended all-expense paid vacation somewhere very very remote.
The real question is who really wrote the speech, it wreaks of sabotage, someone either is trying to embarrass her personally or telegraph to the world that the campaign is playing in the minor leagues. Normally this would be quite the scandal but Donald keeps giving the press so much more salacious material to work with it's been forgotten.
