In 2018, no corroboration was needed. In 2026, a diary and contemporaneous texts are not enough. The difference is the party.
Nah, if the difference were the party, Trump would have been disqualified too.
It is pretty wild that you're trying to compare, "grabbed girlfriend by the wrist" and rape/attempted rape.
Like... you get that one is a wee bit more serious than the other, right?
It's about the standard of evidence.
Not really.
If the same accusers all came out and said Platner was a rapist, you really think the response on the left would be the same?
Of course it wouldn’t.
He would lose the primary to a candidate that isn’t even running.
It is precisely because the accusations are so, relatively, benign that no one really cares.
Can you find me a single example of anyone on the left unironically using the phrase “Believe All Women”?
