General Discussion

(25,466 posts)I am wondering why the highlighted complaints in the OP have not been reported in the media. Journalists have been combing the files for info. Why haven't any of them mentioned those excerpts from the files?
I am not defending Trump. His general behavior and attitude toward women make it look possible that he was part of the sex crimes, especially with such specific details as in the OP. But the only possible mention of them that I've heard came from Trump spokespersons who gave no specifics and only said that there are slanderous accusations about Trump in the files that were lies not worth investigating.
Yet no media have specifically referred to them that I know of. Are they concerned about getting into expensive litigation if they speak about these allegations?
Also, since so many of the files have redactions, and there are still files not released, how did these allegations of such horrendous behavior get made public? Wouldn't Trump want them excluded from the release?
