LMAO! Making porno movies for money is legal but offering money for sex isn't?
Are you denying that's what the laws are?

Who said she just remembered?
Let's say her story of the event actually happened. It was all pretty minor -- he just kissed her and made a lewd offer -- so it's conceivable that she wasn't planning to ever say anything. However, if you were in her spot, and you hear the tape come out where Trump describes groping women and you see that ten or so other women have come forward, wouldn't that possibly be an incentive for you to also come forward? A person you likely hate and think very little of is possibly going to become President, and you now learn that your experience with him was possibly part of a pattern.
That doesn't seem fishy to me. I don't know if Trump is guilty or not, but the timing doesn't seem odd.
I have no idea if Donald Trump is guilty of anything that is alleged, and I'm skeptical that anyone here has any actual knowledge, either. So how is it that so many people here seem to know with certainty that Trump is innocent regarding all of the accusations? At a minimum, wouldn't a position of uncertainty be required?
If you don't know X, you shouldn't assert X. If you don't know Trump is innocent, then you should assert "Trump is innocent." The corollary is also true: if you don't know Trump is guilty, you shouldn't assert that he is.
He says he's going to eventually sue all of them. Won't happen.
You'd be OK with a grown man saying that about your child? That's decent to you?
This is really the critical issue in this election: How much are people selling their souls (figuratively speaking) to try to defend the indefensible? I can understand why those who are doing so because they're rabidly antiabortion - while I think their perspective is not only wrong but also devoid of reasonable perspective, I can at least understand why, given their religious fervor, they are driven to support Trump regardless of his other failings. So putting aside these one-issue voters, it is really shocking to see mature adults lining up behind this intemperate man-child.
No. He says he is going to sue the women. He has not brought a suit and I doubt he will.
Of course he won't. There is no way he will want to open himself up to discovery and prolong this thing. I'm not sure how one could even successfully sue a woman for this sort of claim. The law doesn't require women to have any sort of corroborating evidence when they bring sexual assault allegations. Considering there are ten or so of these women, Trump wouldn't stand a chance in court.

Why do so many people assert Clinton's innocence of many crimes?

Because, this has been a favorite Democrat tactic for many years. This isn't something new. Can you remember the Clarence Thomas smear campaign? There have been many of these similar attacks on candidates by Democrats.
Secondly, the very fact that these were all "revealed" so late in the campaign speaks to their lack of credibility. Why not a year ago?

Sorry. I'm not buying it, and I never did.
But that doesn't imply that you have knowledge that Trump is innocent. You can believe he is innocent, but you don't know he's innocent.
It being a Democratic smear tactic doesn't actually imply that Donald Trump has never sexually assaulted anyone. Those two factual issues are unrelated.
Btw, I do think there is a possible explanation for why the women waited so long. I could see the tape being an impetus for them to come forward. Perhaps the tape reminded them of what a bad person he was, and with the election nearing, they wanted to do what they could to prevent the man who did that to them from becoming President. Again, I have no idea whether he did it, and I'm not saying he did. But the mere fact that they waited this long isn't evidence that they're lying. Some of them have verifiably told other people about these allegations in the past as well.
