Donald Trump is accused of raping a former Miss Switzerland in a report probing the president’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein released by House of Representatives Democrats this week.

Beatrice Keul, a retired model and beauty pageant contestant, told the House Judiciary Committee about an incident alleged to have taken place at New York’s Plaza Hotel in 1993. The report, released a week ahead of the midterm elections, also summarizes previously reported allegations from four other women against Trump.

The White House has strongly denied all of the reports’ claims, accusing “crazed” Democrats of “a desperate attempt to distract Americans” and insisting that the president has been “fully exonerated of anything related to Epstein.”

Keul previously claimed in October 2024 that Trump had sexually assaulted her at a beauty pageant staged at the Plaza Hotel, which Trump then owned.

"The president may have raped someone, but we need to double down on the made up rape threat that transgender people pose to women!"

-Republicans, demonstrably.

It's weird that when I open the news tab for U.S. in Google, I see the "national conversation" (pearl clutching from reactionary centrists) is all about the Alaska race and how underhanded those Democrats are....

Instead of talking about how donnie is so obviously a rapist and talking about the Republicans that are still propping him up despite the fact that the rape likely extends to donnie fucking kids.

    "accused" Are we really still giving that sicko the benefit of the doubt?

    ITT: People who totally forget how it came to be that the Epstein files are even public, the insane amount of fighting that has gone into this and is still going into it, and who have not read the report itself.

    Hint: Here's the actual report. You should read it.

    Or hell, just read the introduction. It details many law enforcement and bipartisan Congressional efforts at all levels, in every way possible, over the span of multiple administrations, to act against the pedophiles in power.

    You never asked yourselves that, did you? You have literally never asked yourselves, "How is it I even know about Jeffrey Epstein?" You only know about him BECAUSE a lot of people, Dems and pre-MAGA Republicans alike, did a great deal of something. He was only arrested BECAUSE a lot of people on all sides did a great deal of something.

    But these people screeching in this thread ignore all that, and are acting as though a lawfully-acting US president has the power of a dictator and billionaires have none. This too is a flat out lie and distortion of reality. For example, it is well known that Epstein had informants in the FBI: that he even got arrested in 2019 is a miracle in itself. Billionaires pay people, including people in government, while a lawful president has his hands tied by the separation of powers created by the Constitution.

    During Trump 1.0, there were still law-abiders in key positions in both the executive and the judiciary that were able to keep him in his lane and out of active investigations, and that's how it was possible that Donald Trump was president when Epstein was arrested in July 2019: the investigation was run by the Southern District of New York on a local basis without involving DC. They had to work very hard at keeping it hidden entirely until they could make the arrest, and they did.

    But you people yelling "No one did anything!" freely ignore all that, and are also very careful not to address the actual report or the evidence in it.

    When Biden was president there were still open and active investigations: as a president who kept his oath to the Constitution, it was literally illegal for him to involve himself in them. Trump is NOT a law-abiding president, and he not only shits on his oath, breaking the checks and balances daily, he hired his own personal attorney to be Attorney General of the United States, who still works for the president as a single client.

    Stop, and think about that for a second: this present Trump illegality is the exact behavior these people yelling about "nobody does anything!" think Biden should have engaged in. Stop, and consider this. Trump uses the DoJ as his personal lawfare machine and the world screams, but here our esteemed shouty guests are suddenly all for Biden doing exactly that in this thread.

    Why?

    Because the shouters screaming "Biden did nothing! Dems did nothing!" are only here for the midterms, and it's self-evident.

    But I'm telling you personally, in ANY country, if you want an executive that interferes in the judicial -- a balance carefully crafted in the US Constitution by guys who know a fuckton more than internet randos and that is now violated daily by Trump -- then you do not want democracy: the stance you advocate is not compatible with a free society, and you're looking at that play out in reality right now.

    So stop with the gaslighting. Outside the corruption of Washington DC, people across the board want the Epstein files to come out, Dem and Republican alike. And the files we do have are a result of bipartisan cooperation to get them out.

    No one wants to live in a country where rights only apply to the rich, and the story of Donald Trump's filthy excesses is exactly that: a tale of how the laws never applied to someone rich enough to slither out of accountability to them.

    When you say no one ever did anything, when in fact countless people have been fighting uphill battles for years -- as the report demonstrates and even lists -- it's not only a flat out lie, it's the kind of thing that people say when they don't really want anything to change.

    Happens every election around here. For anyone else, if you're genuinely interested in who has been doing what, read the report.

    That, and there is credible evidence that Vladimir Putin has a thing for little boys. That's what got Litvinenko killed. Let's all talk about that too, as long as we're talking about billionaire pedos and those who will not stop them, because that sick motherfucker is at the very top of the depraved list.

    A lot of good stuff here and I agree wholeheartedly until this.

    No one wants to live in a country where rights only apply to the rich, and the story of Donald Trump's filthy excesses is exactly that: a tale of how the laws never applied to someone rich enough to slither out of accountability to them.

    There are plenty of people wealthy, rich, and poor that absolutely worship money. They have no problem that money has created a two-tiered society. This is the way it is supposed to be for them and anything else is going against the natural order. Our whole society is infatuated with wealth and we even have terms like "fuck you money" which is the ultimate in freedom for the US.

    Who hasn’t trump raped, really? It honestly seems, given what’s in the Epstein files and in interviews and FBI reports, that every young blonde woman in his circles has either been harassed or raped, because he has a fucked up compulsion and no ability to constrain himself. He thinks all such women not only owe him that, but should be grateful for his disgusting, grubby attention.

    He’s like Jabba the Hutt but somehow more disgusting. I think the list of women in his orbit who were not subjected to this shit would be much shorter.

    "Grab them by the pussy. . ."

    He admitted to being a sex offender before being elected. It didn't matter to republicans then, and it won't now. They're twisted and depraved if they can continue to support him, with the constant drip drip of allegations. And what we hear about is going to be just the tip of an iceberg of abuse.

    It did not help that so many wingers and of course their accomplices in the Murc's Law Media acted like the problem in that admission of sexual assault was using the word "pussy".

    Of course, since they were already so used to reaching for the "civility" narrative, because donnie said "pussy" instead of some other term, it was so very easy to talk about it as if "ermhagawd, he said the P-WORD!" was what people were actually taking issue with vs. the crimes he was actually admitting to.

    It was absolutely infuriating.

    Funny, the White House started a whole ass war to distract from the Epstein files. Projection at it's finest.

    And before the 2016 election he fired off probes to HILARY'S EMAILS which was a literal nothing-burger....

    ...then HUNTER'S LAPTOP which was an absolute fabrication.

    But documented undeniable proof that someone who has been found guilty of rape, has documented history of rape and being a pedo, and openly bragged about sexually assaulted women...yeah that's just a baseless witch hunt

    "Fully exonorated"? By whom? When? Where?

    BTW, you cannot exonorate people like Trump, who never had any honor to start with.

    There is literally no timing, messaging, or amount of evidence that wouldn't be shot down as a witch hunt.

    I'm pretty sure Donald Trump could give an oval office address just openly admitting he raped someone, and the right-wing media machine would instantly be telling people why they shouldn't be upset about it.
