    It's funny watching those on the far left decide which sexual assault is believable based on the political allegiances of the accused.

    What sources? Because none of Biden’s staff at the time witnessed or corroborated any wrongdoing. Or are you referring to the family members or friends she allegedly told? You don't seem to know the difference between a primary and a secondary source.


    I was referring to the family members

    I thought so. In this case, the sources were actually present and witnessed the incident when it happened. Do you think they are all lying?

    "Billionaire philanthropist Laurene Powell Jobs, the majority owner of The Atlantic, has donated over $1.2 million to former Vice President Joe Biden and other Democratic candidates and groups since 2019, Federal Election Commission records show."

    Hmmmmmmm sure is quite convenient that they published a Trump hit piece when the majority owner of the publication has supported the Democrats with big donations including over $610k to Biden.

    https://dailycaller.com/2020/09/04/laurene-powell-jobs-jeffrey-goldberg-democrats/

    "Powell Jobs contributed $2,800 to former Vice President Joe Biden’s primary campaign in October, and in June she divvied out an additional $610,600 to the Biden Victory Fund. She’s also provided maxed out donations to at least 66 other Democratic politicians since the start of 2019, all the while providing nothing to Republican candidates, according to Federal Election Commission records."

    I wont write it off but I have not as yet had a chance to fact check it. The short answer to your question is Trump is human, we all lie.

    And how would you "fact check" it?

    What credible sources are available to you?

    Not sure if you've missed this one, but I'd be very interested in an answer.


    If these comments ARE true, would they be enough to turn you against Donald Trump?

    Here is your fact check, from the horses mouth himself: "John McCain is a loser."

    https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/622522682245033984

    Will you now accept that Trump did indeed call McCain a loser and lied when he recently claimed he didn't?

    You again are ignoring the Associated Press confirming the story. Since you're now trying to claim Fox News is unreliable due to apparently having anti Trump biases, do you accept the AP confirmation?

    I just couldn't vote for Biden so Trump is the only alternative in this 2 horse race.

    And if you were to ask me why I couldn't vote for Biden I would say he is a lackluster candidate that doesn't bring the same kind of energy and drama that Trump does during his campaigning and presidency.

    They are one of the sources being listed, alongside The Atlantic and the AP. Most likely being promoted because it's harder to accuse Fox News of pro-Biden bias.


    Though evidently not impossible.

    It's more the fact that it's been verified by multiple sources. Like it's probably a much bigger sign of delusion when people such as yourself are treating the AP as a biased source when they verified the sorry too.

    Energy and drama? That's what you base your vote for a candidate on?!?!

    If a recording emerged of the comments would you still support Trump?

    He brings 'drama' alright... Usually the outrageous kind as he engages in basic populism.

    Which is somewhat ironic when you see that your username is "LessOutragePlz"

    While the comments are abhorrent, on the offchance that they are true, he would still be ahead of joe biden for me.

    It is entirely possible 2 staffers were paid off and have just said it to the same news outlets, AP are also all about speed, wouldnt be shocked if they were just copying the atlantics story as ‘fact’ without confirming.

    It just doesnt sit right that the first publication to have it is the one that made up the ‘n word tape’ story

    Well then, you'd be accusing their reporter who said he verified the quotes of being a liar.
