NBC has found footage from 1992 showing Epstein and Trump together at a Trump hosted party in Palm Beach.

Esptein is doing nothing inappropriate in the footage and none of the women appear to be minors.

This is the screenshot that leapt out at me as I watched.

Donald Trump, Grabber-in-Chief.

    and Ga6's WIB is in much of the footage. I think the odds are large that she was an NFL cheerleader like most/all the rest of the girls.

    Regarding the woman he's holding around the waist. After watching the video, I don't see much evidence of "grinding." I actually don't think their below the belt parts touched at all. If they did, it was for the briefest of moments.

    I'll let you all decide for yourselves if it would have been ok or not if it did happen...

    Waste of time and of emotional energy. But from the still that J posted, I found it remarkable that he is looking away from the woman he is grabbing. Not even the sort of uninvited personal interaction that accompanies a pretend-affectionate peck on the cheek or kiss on the top of the hair. As for the bare-midriff WIB, I also thought she was the youngest looking (although not 14), and in any event one photo is no evidence of that.

    Boise says he was stonewalled looking into the Prince Andrew claim and suggests the UK government pressured the US to get Acosta to go easy with the agreement.

    Was Epstein a Mossad agent and did he have CIA connections; certainly he claimed to have an intelligence connection.

    The link is here; and also includes lots more names of very famous folks in the Epstein circle.  Bannon, Musk, Zuckerberg, Gates, Summers just to name a few.  Trump and Clinton may just be the tip of the ice berg.

    Your post looks like a desperate attempt to ignore that what ever Trump's involvement is it does not come close to the other big names that are involved.

    Look at the names I listed in my previous comment.  Epstein was involved with a large number of high profile people for many years.  Trump was only one of the A list people in Epstein's circle.

    There are pix of Prince Andrew with a young girl who claims they were involved that are being reported by MSM sources.

    Boise is very aggressive and has not been shy about his claim that Epstein provided girls to many A listers, and quite frankly ones that did not seem to be well versed in getting them on their own.

    What ever one thinks about Trump he does have a long history of lots of short trysts with attractive women and then quickly moving on.  This happened well before he and Epstein met, and after their fallout as well.

    Trying to pretend Trump is the only person implicated in Epstein's web (or even the one with the deepest involvement) is silly.  There will be plenty of others who get bashed much worse than Trump by this.

    How ever bad Trump is the fact of the matter is that he is not involved in every bad thing that happens.

    He certainly hung out with the A+ crowd, that doesn't mean they all participated in the debauchery.

    As far as I can tell there have only been three direct accusations , Prince Harry, Dershowitz
    and tRump himself (although that lawsuit was dropped shortly before the election).

    There is probably as much circumstantial evidence against tRump as anybody. His multiple lecherous statements about teenage girls(even his own daughter) should alone be a cause for suspicion.

    Trump-defending attorney Alan Dershowitz has written an op-ed for right-wing publication Newsmax that reveals the New Yorker is working on an expose about him and women who have accused him of having sex with them when they were under 18 years old.

    In the op-ed, Dershowitz accuses New Yorker editor David Remnick of commissioning "a hit piece against me for the explicit purpose of silencing my defense of President Trump, Prime Minister Netanyahu, and the State of Israel."

    suit by Virginia Roberts (aka Virginia Giuffre aka Jane Doe 103) -- the one whose lawyers first brought up his name back in 2015. She's represented by David Boies' firm and he's trying to get them kicked off the case because he says they also agreed to represent him against her and delayed 8 days before telling him they had a conflict by which time he had already shared his entire legal strategy, phone records, flight records, etc with them.

    It's in the Southern District of NY, case no. 19-CV-03377.

    He says Maria Farmer, the new art lady who came forward (whose sister says Epstein touched her inappropriately in New Mexico) can't be correct because Maria puts him at Epstein's house before he ever met Epstein.

    Too many cases to keep track of (none / 0) (#34)
    by ragebot on Sat Jul 20, 2019 at 11:23:33 AM EST
    Not sure why but I thought this settlement in 2016 would be the last one since it seemed to be a victory for Dershowitz.  Cassell is certainly a heavy weight in sex abuse cases and unlikely to retreat if he thought he could win; not to mention the other capable lawyers helping Cassell.

    The cases are not limited to SDNY there are also cases in Florida and Utah from what I know.

    My understanding is the 2016 settlement was due to Dershowitz providing evidence refuting the claims Roberts made against him; the evidence being proof he was not in the locations she claimed to have had sex with him when she claimed he was, injuring Robert's credibility.  Problem is that once Roberts' counsel had these dates other claims could be made.

    My biggest question is why the Epstein settlement got past everyone involved.  Acosta has claimed there was pressure on him from above and reportedly was told Epstein was connected to Mossad.  Let's remember a passport found in Epstein's safe was from Israel. Not saying Acosta was right in how easy he let Epstein off; just that I am not convinced it was a one man job.

    The expired passport found in the safe of his NYC manse (along with cash and loose diamonds) was issued by Austria.  It displayed Epstein's photo, a different name, and a Saudi residence address.

    Although Epstein claimed never to have used the fake passport, prosecutors stated that it had egress and ingress stamping from several countries. Epstein's attorneys would not indicate if Epstein has joint citizenship in another country.

    Epstein claims he got the passport, used, from an (unnamed) friend, for the purpose of protection from, and due to fear of, terrorist harm during the 1980s.

    You are trying to cover for Trump. We have Trump on film hosting a party with Epstein which is more than we have on anybody else at this point. Trying to downplay Trump's involvement with false equivalencies looks like desperation on your part. We don't know what part if any the rest of them played in all this. The picture with Prince Andrew has been around for quite a while but still not the same as Trump. There are many accusations against Trump most recently rape.
    Trump was invoked with Epstein going back to the 1980s. AG Barr has a 40 year association with Epstein. Nobody is saying it is only Trump. Dershowitz seems to be heavily involved.

    To be clear, I don't really have a problem with any of those possibilities. As I said, it looks like people having fun.

    As for the older man/younger woman relationship... one of the attractions is money.  Another is experience.  It makes me laugh when a woman says she dates older men because they are more mature.  I understand what she means but when a man dates a woman half is age, he isn't being very mature.

    But aside from that, yes, your point is correct. The younger woman / older man dynamic is not uncommon, and it's often not based on money at all.

    I'm ten years older than my spouse, and we first met when when she was 19 and I was 29. Nearly 30 years on, it doesn't matter so much now but to be honest, I was far more conscious of our age difference back then than she was.

    I'm just speculating here but from my observation, older adolescent girls and young women tend to be more mature than most guys their age, so perhaps some of them perceive older men to be rocks of emotional stability. But as our current First Lady -- who's 24 years younger than her husband -- no doubt learned, they may be in for a very rude surprise.

    it was some kind of charity event, parading scantily clad young ladies in front of lecherous so called billionaires is probably a good business model (and I'm sure tRump made a profit on the fee's).

    "He just came strolling right in," Dixon said. "There was no second to put a robe on or any sort of clothing or anything. Some girls were topless. Others girls were naked. Our first introduction to him was when we were at the dress rehearsal and half-naked changing into our bikinis."

    Dixon went on to say that employees of the Miss Universe Organization encouraged the contestants to lavish Trump with attention when he came in. "To have the owner come waltzing in, when we're naked, or half-naked, in a very physically vulnerable position and then to have the pressure of the people that worked for him telling us to go fawn all over him, go walk up to him, talk to him, get his attention..."

    he was sure proud of it  
    in a 2005 appearance on Howard Stern's show, Trump bragged about doing exactly what the women describe. "I'll go backstage before a show, and everyone's getting dressed and ready and everything else," he said.
    Don't you see a pattern here?  He is a self described sexual predator with multiple credible accusers.

    you have not been paying attention.

    Trump was well known for treating women like disposable playthings for as long as I can remember. Dredging up an almost 30 year old tape of him at a party with a bunch of cheerleaders does nothing to change Trump's image.

    While you are correct in saying it fits a pattern you are wrong in saying I don't see it.  I can recall both dems and pubs when talking about a candidate saying 'hold your nose and vote for them'.

    Bottom line is bashing Trump for how he treats women is beating a dead horse.

    not holding him to account is submission, that's what he wants.

    What other pattern should we ignore? The racism? The lies? His wrecking ball approach to everything?

    Sorry, I will keep beating that horse, it might be futile, but at least I can hold my head up, unlike the sniveling cowards who continue to enable him.

    about an old tape of Trump partying with women. It's about Trump partying with Epstein and how they appear to be very friendly in that tape. It's about how he and Epstein both are together reacting to the women. The women are really secondary to the story unless it is proven that they were underage at the time.

    No. I'm sorry, but how Trump treats women ... (none / 0) (#62)

    ... is an entirely relevant discussion because if you think about it, that's also how he pretty much treats everyone else in his orbit. If you are no longer a worthy vessel to serve his immediate emotional and / or material gratification, you are effectively scuttled by him and tossed aside. That's why there's been such an absurdly high turnover rate in this administration less than three years on.

    Another part of that horse (5.00 / 1) (#64)

    is that a lot of voters secretly would like to go back to being naughty frat boys and sorority girls, and admire and envy Trump for managing his life to enable that lifestyle.

    And then there's the not-insignificant number of evangelicals and the orthodox who spin fairytales about Trump being a deeply-flawed servant of God like the Biblical King David.

    We're not a dispassionate, deeply reflective people here in the U.S on the whole.
