A child sex abuse survivor from Palm Beach County who testified at the Ghislaine Maxwell trial in 2021 said she had met Donald Trump with Jeffrey Epstein at Mar-a-Lago in the 1990s when she was 14 and was once a contestant in Trump's Miss Teen USA beauty pageant.

She was trafficked through Trump's pageant.

When Trump says his falling out with Epstein was over Jeff hiring Trump's workers, this is what he really means. Poaching his victims, more like.

Katie Johnson’s testimony details how they fought in front of her over Trump (TW disgusting) being the one to take her virginity

u/dave_your_wife 28d ago

You mean the first to rape her?

Yes lots of child rape, by Trump and Epstein, the child rapists.

ETA: they both had already sexually assaulted her multiple times before Trump raped her.

Just highlighting what aspect they fought over.

Oh so when trump was bragging about grabbing them by you know what, he was bragging about assaulting little girls?

u/Ok-Maize-8199 28d ago

Yes, literally. When he talks about walking into changing rooms and just start kissing, the changing rooms he was talking about were for Miss Teen USA.

u/Chicago1871 28d ago

He must be stopped at all costs

u/sonyka 28d ago

That's three different things.
Just to be clear (because it's hard to keep all the grossness straight):

  • The "just start kissing" quote was from the Access Hollywood grab-em-by-the-pussy tape. He was at least nominally talking about "women." Which is still not ok.

  • When he giggity-bragged about walking into changing rooms and "inspecting" the women on Howard Stern they were talking about Miss USA and Miss Universe, which are (young) adult pageants. Multiple contestants (and weirdly, Ivanka) have confirmed this. Also not ok.

  • And several former Miss Teen USA contestants— some as young as 14 at the time— have also said he would routinely walk in on them changing. Def not ok.

 
Ugh. This cretin.

Upvoting because when we mix stories to make what he said look even worse, it just adds to the propaganda that it's a witch hunt. Let the shit he did speak for itself.

"And when you're famous they let you do it."

u/Chicago1871 28d ago

No donald, its because youre a six foot tall grown man and shes a 100lb 14yo girl you cornered in a dresssing room.

We have a word for that and its not “famous”.

u/fasterthanpligth 28d ago

Well, that, yes, but "they" can also refer to other people, like prosecutors and judges and stuff.

u/phughes 28d ago

No, he was talking about a single, specific adult woman. Not that I doubt for a second that he has raped multiple children, but the "grab her by the pussy" tape was not him talking about raping children.

Just FYI, the “Katie Johnson” and linked stories are a long-debunked hoax.

Trump is a lifelong criminal who should be in prison for many things. But this particular story is a known hoax.

The fact it spreads here undermines the sub and may even be getting amplified as a way for conservatives to portray users here as being identical to pizzagate and birther hoax spreaders.

u/Chicago1871 28d ago

Oh he has only grabbed adult women by their genitals without consent.

Cool cool.

u/AntoniaFauci 28d ago

He’s done a lot more than that. It’s just that the old “Katie Johnson” hoax is being deliberately spread here in recent weeks by a set of dubious accounts.

Don’t get drawn into it.

u/1877KlownsForKids 28d ago

First to rape someone that looked just like his daughter Ivanka

How do you know that the real hoax isnt the idea that its a hoax? Where are you getting your information?

u/AntoniaFauci 28d ago

From actual reporting, not hoax copypasta spreaders. I urge you to take 30 seconds and do actual research.

“Donald, if you don’t let me, you won’t have the privilege of going to the island.” - Epstein probably

u/sonyka 28d ago

More Freudian spinning.

The "privilege" slip is hilarious, but don't let it distract from how that whole line of defense is bullshit. Doesn't matter whether he went to the island— Epstein was perving it up right in NYC. And Palm Beach. Where the guy was practically his neighbor. He didn't need to go to LSJ.

u/cyberattaq123 28d ago

Was Katie the one where they played that fucking weird ‘sexual harassment’ ‘game’ like seeing who could touch her the ‘best’ or something I guess or was that another innocent child Trump and Epstein violated.

u/adorablefuzzykitten 28d ago

Trump wants you to listen to Maxwell to find out if this is true.

What’s your source?

u/AntoniaFauci 28d ago

Seriously, take 1 minute and research it yourself.

Whatever I post, bad actors censor/report/ban/discredit it anyway.

Look it up yourself and then please stop echoing the hoax.

It makes everyone here sound like pizzagaters.

u/anthropomorphizingu 28d ago

There’s literal court documents and video testimony so no, not like pizza gate. I got links and you don’t.

-1

u/AntoniaFauci 28d ago

False.

Filing fake a court document proves nothing. To the contrary, the fact the filing turnout to be fake is further proof it’s a hoax.

And the fake video IS literally the hoax. It’s how the hoax works. He makes the fake video, tells the victim to pay up or being smeared.

But even if you don’t understand the logic and are violently opposed to doing even 30 second of actual research, watch the video and you’ll see how ludicrously fake it is.

I tried to help you stop embarrassing yourself spreading a known hoax, but it seems you either want to do this deliberately or you’re not interesting in being truthful. Oh well.
