Have 16 accused they mother****re? Bc Trump has 16 WOMEN CLAIMING HE SEXUALLY ASSAULTED THEM

Sorry, but accusation alone doesn't hold much water.

They should be investigated, but until there is more than just allegations...
True. The whole "most" women argument speaks for every allegation of sexual assault. When you control for accusations against celebrities/politicians/etc., I'm sure you'll get different numbers. Ultimately, when both an accuser and the accused seem credible (and there is no corroborating evidence for to support either the accuser or the accused), I will not condemn someone based on mere, unsubstantiated allegations. That doesn't seem very just to me. It just doesn't.

So let's do some generous math and say 20% of the claims against Trump are false. That means 12 WOMEN ARE CLAIMING HE SEXUALLY ASSAULTED THEM.

One British man said he was sitting across the aisle from Trump when the flight attendant that accused Trump kept hitting non-stop on Trump. He said Trump did nothing.

Now, with 16 allegations, why is there no evidence of any kind?

If you can't see the difference you are delusional. There is photographic proof of Al Franken SEXUALLY ASSAULTING a woman. And a sleeping, completely defenseless woman at that. So, yes, other allegations against him become more credible based on the prior documented evidence. Had that creep merely had allegations against him that were not corroborated in any way, I already explained in another post how I'd treat the situation.

There is both the witch hunt factor and also the fact that he is rich, famous and a hated politician.

He will attract a lot more false allegations than the typical person.

We'll throw her into your made up stat about 10% of women making these claims are lying. That still leaves 12 WOMEN CLAIMING HE SEXUALLY ASSAULTED THEM

Another accuser dated him for a period of time AFTER he supposedly assaulted her. He eventually dumped her when he met his wife.

By that definition, 1 percent of women surveyed reported being raped in the previous year, a figure that suggests that 1.3 million American women annually may be victims of rape or attempted rape.
That figure is significantly higher than previous estimates. The Department of Justice estimated that 188,380 Americans were victims of sexual violence last year. Only 84,767 assaults defined as forcible rapes were reported in 2010, according to national statistics from the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

I agree let's start with the pervert sitting in the white house.
