Re: Your Nomination for Secretary of Defense — A Blatant Spectacle of Opportunism, Recklessness, and the Sinister Nexus of White Nationalism and Sex Crimes
The story about this rape is hair-raising. Of course, people will deny it is true. But she did confirm the assault with a rape kit and alleges being drugged and raped. She was a friend of his, someone working the Republican conference circuit, intervening when he would not let two other women alone. She says she sued him because she and her husband (who was staying at the hotel she was raped in, along with their kids) did not want him to get away with everything. It's understandable that a mother (or anyone, for that matter) would not want to be subjected to a criminal trial with a famous person. The fact he was able to drug her on short notice suggests he carries around rohypnol or some other substance. So it's likely there are other stories yet to come.
